I just got an order in from them. I bought 8 boxes of 6 packages each of Hormel Compleats. These are
prepared meals that need no refrigeration and have a 2+ year shelf life. You microwave them or in a pinch you can heat them with a Mountain House or MRE type chemical heater. I also bought 3 different flavors of Arizona tea stiks. I had found these at WM, bought a couple and then they quit carrying them. I keep these and some other foods at work in case of bad weather or ??? I've spent as much as 96 hours straight at work snowed in. Talk about some nice overtime! The good thing about Amazon is that they have a subscription service and if you use it shipping is free and the price is discounted. With the subscription service you can cancel at any time. I actually paid less buying these items through Amazon than buying at WM. |

I keep these on hand as they are great for whatever/whenever. Just like you said, I too keep several of them at work, just in case.
Also, I can attest to the logevity of this product. They are sealed well with a heavy cover. I had one the other day (beef stew) that expired in 2/2009 and it did not have any strange/bad/old/wierd taste to it. Still tasted really good actually, and that was eating it cold even. I keep an eye on them at the grocery for any kind of fire sale. |
