I hate to ask this, because I know that it has been asked before. I did a search and got more replies than I can ever look at, so here goes...

Where is a good source for new (as in fresh) MRE's??? I know about EEI and Lond Life Foods, any other sources would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance for any info...

The last ones i bought were here, sometimes they run sales that offer better prices or additional food in the mre's.

If i remember this is one of ChrisK's recomended vendors and i have had good service from them. HTH

Major can be expensive with shipping, but if you buy enough it becomes competitively priced with a good selection and freshness. Major has improved shipping time, which was a Major problem in the past. I could make a shopworn joke about donuts and coffee <img src="images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />. Instead, a bit of survival trivia for everyone. Donuts used to be made up in bulk and allowed to freeze in the north country as a trail food. The tradition of dunking donuts comes from defrosting them in the coffee bite by bite.

$60 online free shipping ($75 if you phone in) a case of 12 full meals from http://www.longlifefood.com/ . I just placed an order with them yesterday and they seem like pleasant people to deal with. SInce I haven't received it yet I can't say anything more about them.

Hmm. Sort of like hardtack for the tundra! I remember seeing a picture in National Geographic from northern China or Mongolia of large donut shaped breads. I wonder if it was the same idea.

As a follow up, if anyone plans to order from them... They seem like a reliable outfit but it took them two weeks to ship my stuff. I know that shipping was free and the price was pretty sweet but still... It was three week adventure that I didn't need and would gladly pay some more just to get my stuff faster. But lesson was learned...

I've also read that the pre-made doughnuts provided the fat that the snowshoe hare lacked, thus making the diet a bit healthier for the trappers. Did I read that in Cache Lake County?

If you want seriously large quantities (like a one year supply) you might try this site...

I've never used it so I'm only sharing what I've found.
