Actually, L, we purchased a bucket with 200 vegan meals for $60.00 from our local Costco last Saturday.

Was gonna post about it but got busy and forgot. It is packed in a bucket and has a shelf stable life of 20 years.

I'm looking for more of these items at my local Costco.

They only had the vegan meals available this time but the price was just too good to pass up. I have meat stored and can always add some Spam or vienna sausage to them.

They are low in carbs, high in protein, and low in fat. Perfect for East Texas. :mrgreen:

Much appreciated.

Don't know, L. But you could always e-mail them or call.

BTW I made a mistake above - mine only has 200 meals not 275.

Costco appears to have gotten into the emergency food business big time:

I have not seen these items in my local store but they are available on line. :hmm
