Reviews

5 of the 7 #10

"5 of the 7 #10 cans I ordered came dented, with four along either the top or bottom seam. I purchased these for long term storage. That wasn’t the only thing damaged. A couple of the ration bars I ordered were not vacuum sealed. Luckily I paid for insurance. When I called Patriot they sent me to the insurance company and those folks were very easy to deal with."

Emergency bars

"These bars are a very good emergency food. The calories are good, the taste is very good, their compact and can be most beneficial in a time of need. They tend to fall apart when opening them, but still edible and tasty."

Snack-Worthy!

"I couldn't wait to taste test these once I've ordered this pack. You get seven packages containing 12 bars in each. Now they're pretty small, but let's ignore the "size matters" thing for a minute here- for me, just eating one really curbs the munchies. Heck, I even decided to follow what one reviewer said to eat them as part of a diet plan! In the pictures, I thought they'd taste like graham or granola bars, but in actuality? Oh-ho man- they taste like biscuits or cookies or. . . both! It's good! (Source: www. Trustmebro) They're not rock solid like a cinder block but are actually ALMOST as breakable as a pile of ashes. Just make sure you have something to drink on the side. Your mouth could possibly experience an internal climate change like going from a South American rainforest into The Saharah Desert in 3 to 5 chews. That is unless you have saliva glands that rivals a St. Bernard, then you should be fine. Other than that, I am definitely looking to get the bigGER pack of this and you should too! TL;DR: They taste (good) like biscuits, Not hard to chew like it's a jaw-breaker, and could possibly satisfies the munchies."

Delicious Ration Bars

"Forget emergency rations, I eat a ration bar every day as part of my regular diet! Been ordering this item for years now as I always have a supply on hand. Delicious, easy to consume & digest, and they are full of protein (7 gm) & nutrients w/ low sugar (5 gm). Only 200 calories per bar. Easy ordering on the website with prompt delivery always."

Billy C. (5/5)

These are OK, I find room for improvement.

"The individual wrapping is very good, though difficult to remove without a sharp blade. I have found if I am trying to neatly open one in the woods, it crumbles to dust, I hope half ends up on the ground. Constructively speaking, it needs something as a binder (corn syrup or honey). I hope this does not fall on deaf ears. . ."

Q&A

Do you have a stove to set the instant fire under so a pan can set on it?
Thank you for reaching out to us today. We currently have the Inferno Pro https://www.mypatriotsupply.com/products/instafire-inferno-outdoor-biomass-stove?variant=6326360440859 as well as the self-powered Space Heater & Stove https://www.mypatriotsupply.com/products/vesta-self-powered-indoor-space-heater-and-stove-by-instafire-canned-heat-cooking-fuel
I didn't see any information on allergy ingredient listings. Were they manufactured in a facility that has for example peanuts, tree nuts, sesame, etc.? Thank you for answering this. We have a daughter that has several food allergies.
All ingredients are listed on the Nutrition & Directions tab. Our Peanut Butter product is produced at an off site facility to not co-mingle with our other foods. Our other items are peanut free.
Any chance you can stock or direct me to a gluten free version as well? I am Celiac and was hoping to find a gluten free alternative to stock my BOB. THANKS!
That is a great question. We do not have a Gluten free version of the ration bars.
Can I get half order of the soups ??
You are able to order soups any way you want individually.
Is this product being discontinues and if so...why? Is there a new one coming? I noticed a tiny "discontinued" note at the bottom of the first customer comment. What is that about?
Great question! The 2,400 Emergency Ration Bars by Ready Hour are not being discontinued at this time. The discontinued note at the bottom of the first customer comment is referring to Datrex-brand ration bars, which we used to sell but was discontinued when we shifted to Ready Hour brand ration bars.

Calories You Can Count On

When it comes to calorie counts in emergency food, a lot of other brands skimp to save a buck. Some even deliver as few as 1,200 calories per day. Not here. All My Patriot Supply emergency food kits provide at least 2,000 calories per person, per day – with real meals that actually taste good.

Built to Last with Disaster-Durable Packaging

Our products are made to get you through tough times, and the packaging is built to outlast them. We seal our food in ultra-thick, four-layer resealable pouches with oxygen absorbers to lock out air, light, and moisture. And our buckets are made of extra thick polypropylene with structural reinforcements, so you can stack them as high as you need to.
