Not unlike the idiotic, nascent SJW movie ‘Super Size Me’. No rational person expects to eat like that 3 x day indefinitely without consequences.
And in my experience, Wise is awful. Has a funny taste and seems spendy. Not to mention they have no idea what “stop spamming me” means.
“They seem to miss that the point of this food isn’t to replicate your pre-collapse culinary habits, but rather to keep you alive.”
True enough, but if you have young kids, trial runs like this are crucial. Kids have been known to refuse to eat, to the point of starvation, if the food isn’t acceptable to them.

Mountain House (especially Biscuits and Gravy, and Beef Stroganoff) rules!
When camping I might go as much as 2 meals a day with that, but, if push came to shove, it’d be pretty good stuff for at least several days I bet.
(Back during Florida hurricane season 2017, we had a couple meals of it and were glad to have it until the power came back on)
I have some Wise food too, and agree that the Wise food isn’t as good as others like Mountain House. We tried a sample of the Wise lasagna before buying a bunch, but in our opinion it’s more “keeping you alive” food than the Mountain House. Mountain House is appetizing enough that I’ll eat it when my wife’s off somewhere and I don’t feel like making something. I know other people feel that way about it too. At $5 a meal, I won’t do that all the time, but it’s a nice option to have.
The Wise food is for when it’s a matter of survival.
