Survival Rations

Does anyone know about nut and milk content in survival rations? I just found out that one of my in-laws is seriously allergic to nuts, and several people who might need to use one of my packs are lactose intollerant. The nuts are terminal, not being able to deal with milk is just extremely uncomfortable, which there is enough of if these kits get opened.

Looking over my MAINSTAY rations as I type, Mostly enriched flour,added vitamins and minerals,vegetable shortening ( cottonseed or soybean)sugar, corn starch and syrup,natural lemon flavor, artificial butter and vanilla flavor, yellow #5 and red #40 artificial color and Gamma/Delta Tocopherols as a natural antioxident.

Here's a list I keep (probably should update and post it on the site). Seem to stay away from most common allergic foods for the most part, except Wheat.

*Raven bows, sweeping the floor with Aussie hat*<br><br>Thanks- I've been using more normal camping food, but my as my family keeps getting bigger, people's 72 hour packs are looking like they may get bigger, maybe into 100 hour units, so Mainstay packs are looking like a good idea, along with some humintarian meals.
