MOUNTAIN HOUSE
Why store food?
Keeping food on hand for emergencies protects you the same way insurance on your home, or auto does. With Mountain House freeze-dried foods in your food reserve, you’ll be ready for just about any unexpected crisis. In today’s turbulent times of uncertainty (i.e. frequency of natural and man-made disasters and more), there has never been a better time to get a ‘food insurance policy’ of long storing foods and preparedness supplies. In fact, the investment you make today may become one of the most important and valuable investments you will ever make!

Imagine what a life saver these foods will be when your electric power is knocked out for several days by a severe storm. With Mountain House on hand and a one burner stove or candle to heat water (cold water can be used in a pinch), you can enjoy a hot delicious gourmet tasting meal in less that 10 minutes. Having your own private food reserve makes a lot of sense–now more than ever before. The peace-of-mind and security that comes from having your food reserve is potentially priceless!

Could you survive a food shortage?
If food supplies were interrupted for any variety of reasons ( i.e. crashes of grocery store computers or computerized delivery systems, a natural disaster, civil unrest riots, trucker strike, etc.), existing store supplies would disappear within hours. No amount of money in the bank could put food on your table…for sure not the kind you enjoy today. And how about those credit cards and ATM cards–if the power is out or computer lines are down you’ll be on your own. This does not need to ever happen to you or your family. All you need to do is simply take a few prudent steps today and get prepared with your own food reserves.
