Before I forget, Mountain House is having a sale starting in February. I’ll be ordering cases of the pouch foods for myself and the local LMI. This includes the ProPak,2- and 4-serving pouches. Unlike the #10 can buy from last year this will be open to anyone reading this so feel free to bring your friends in. I’ll have a page up with shopping cart in a few weeks and ordering will be closed at the end of January. Because the pouch foods are extremely light, this is a good opportunity for those who felt the shipping on the #10 cans was prohibitive. Example: a case (6 pouches) of spaghetti w/ meat sauce in the ProPak is about 3#. Since I can fit about two or three cases worth of pouches into one Priority Mail Flat Rate Box that means, depending on what you want, you can get two or three cases (maybe more) sent anywhere in the US (inc. AK and HI) for $8.10. Pouches are rated for at least seven years. Good for backpacking, hiking, geocaches, bugout bags, food caches and storage at secondary locations. Menu selection is much broader with the pouches than it is with the cans, so if nothing in the cans appealed to you Im sure therell be something in the pouches you’ll want.

More details as January unfolds.
