Calories are the most important thing in terms of emergency food, but not all calories are the same. Some will say, “calories are calories” in a survival situation.

We believe in quality calories. We believe there is a significant difference between high quality and low quality calories, and high quality calories are what matter for survival. You will not find sugary additives, or unnecessary amounts of rice. You will find wholesome and hearty meals with quality calories.
