Was going to order more, and what do you know, all gone. Gosh.

The Family Deluxe Emergency Kit that has some of that food that comes with it is all gone too.

All this in the wake of the FEMA story and the Japan Tsunami Earthquake. Could be nightmarish times ahead, if it already isn't a bit unnerving now.

Time will tell. Nobody except God knows the future.

They have a replacement product that actually looks better. The 275 meal bucket was based on 275 x 200 calorie meals (or so I've read) or about a 30 day supply for one person based on 1833 calories per day. The new easier to store square bucket is a 30 day supply based on 2000 calories per day for $6 more. I have two on order and plan to order one per month for the rest of the year.

I've been monitoring this product for months to see if the rise in oil prices and dollar inflation would make this increase in cost ($89.99 including shipping & handling), but the price was the same until one day no more available. Could be a mass order by Gov'ts (U.S. & Japan)?

Ahhh, so they did increase the price and "restructured" their product whilst taking down their old one.

This version has a different menu though.

This one looks better to me.

[Ripon83]

Its funny, people are selling these things on ebay for $125.....plus shipping.

I take it this stuff isn't at the Costco stores, but you have to order it?

That's BS, anyone actually buying that crap marked up? eBay has such a failboat demographic of buyers and sellers.
