Review on 🥫 Katadyn NRG-5 Emergency Food Ration, tan: Nutritional and Long-lasting Solution for Emergencies by Mark Bullock

First of all, this is a compressed malto meal texture as described. Semi-sweet pleasant taste, except for very dry (almost chalky) with hints of barley? Tested with very small sips of water such as 4.2 oz SOS water bags. I felt satisfied but not full and didn't want more after a portion block. The outer cover is medium strength cardboard separated by a very strong Mylar plastic vacuum seal. The inner biscuit will also be wrapped. Shelf life is much longer than most other types of survival cookies. Cookie blocks can be distributed as needed based on calorie needs. Easily made into a porridge for toddlers with a little water. To protect against bugs I would add a multivitamin and maybe some sun dried/dried fruit to this diet depending on your water needs and capacity. In the end this ration lasted 2 days with light activity and moderate water intake... On the plus side this ration costs less, lasts longer and seems to last longer than some other lifeboat rations. If you have a lifeboat ration from Seven Oceans, this is VERY close. I buy these for all the bags to pack my car and BOB. Hello everyone, good luck with your training.
