Dear Valued Customers:

We regret to inform you Oregon Freeze Dry cannot satisfy all Mountain House #10 can orders and we have removed #10 cans from our website temporarily. The reason for this is sales of #10 cans have continued to increase. OFD is allocating as much production capacity as possible to this market segment, but we must maintain capacity for our other market segments as well.

Currently we are able to meet demand for Mountain House pouches and most of these products are still available for purchase on our website. Some of our dealers still have Mountain House #10 Cans available and you will need to locate them and contact them directly….Search Online Dealers

We want to clarify inaccurate information we’ve seen on the Internet. This situation is not due to sales to the government domestically or in Iraq. We do sell products to this market, but we also sell other market segments, including Ingredients and Private Label markets. The reason for this decision is solely due to an unprecedented sales spike in #10 cans sales.

We expect this situation to be necessary for several months although this isn’t a guarantee. We will update this information as soon as we know more. We apologize for this inconvenience and appreciate your patience. We sincerely hope you will continue to be Mountain House customers in the future.

Sincerely,

OREGON FREEZE DRY INC.

I just received this a few minutes ago.
For everyone who took advantage of the two group buys I hosted for #10 cans, pat yourselves on the back for being far ahead of the curve. I still have two or three cases of various #10 cans left over from the last group buy that I was holding onto as inventory but I think Im gonna move them into the bunker and ‘buy them’ from inventory. Mmmmm…pork chops.
by the way, the way youre kicking yourself right now for not getting in on the #10 cans when you had the chance? You’ll be kicking just as hard when you realize you shoulda bought those pistol and rifle magazines you kept putting off.

  1. note

    been finding “sigle servings” of spam in mylar at the local “Family Dollar” stores for a buck reach. been aquiring pouches of rice dishes, tuna, dried fruits, soup starters, and bisquick. like canned freeze-dried, pouched foods have a good long shelf life.

    let us all face the facts, higher fuel prices are killing this nation’s economy. and anything made from petro-chemical stocks are rising too.savy prepared people can adapt, but too many are not going to make it if the economy collapses. even now tensions are rising along with rape, murder, stealing, and sodomy. a lot of it is treated like the homeless “it doesn’t exist officially”, so when things bubble over, it is going to be a deadly mixture for all. even in remote locations, things get cruddy for awile.

    so take care, stay prepared. Wildflower 08
