I bought 5 cause why the hell not.  If it arrives in a month, I'm good.  
I'll try some out later if we all survive the Cerveza mas finavirus...

Is there a date on the bags or do you just write the date you receive them somewhere on the package and figure 25 years from that day?

So, has anyone actually tried this food?

I bought "several" in multiple orders over the past couple of months and just got around to packing them for storage this afternoon. No matter how I tried to pack them, I wound up with one left over after filling the totes. So we tried the black bean soup and creamy chicken flavored rice tonight. They were both pretty darn good. Wife and daughter liked them also.
The creamy chicken flavored rice is a little on the bland side and needed a little salt and pepper.
The black bean soup was gtg as is. I think it would be even better if we added some more rice and maybe some sausage chunks.
Haven't tried the mac & cheese or potato soup yet.

I literally ordered 5 just a few minutes ago with free shipping. It may take a long time to get there given what the website said but worst case scenario I have them later.

I went ahead and bought another 5 to send to my kid and his mom in Missouri and it was still free shipping on that order as well. Weird.

They have a limit of 5 on the linked page.   If you are being charged shipping,  have you ordered more than 5?

Ordered another five on Thursday and got the 10% discount also.  Doesn't hurt to have a couple months worth of highly portable chow on hand.  Not as handy as MREs, but not nearly as expensive either.

No shipping notice yet though.

I ordered two rounds of 5 on that link over the past few months and always got the free shipping.  Like I (and others) said in a previous post these are good for what they are but require full on cooking, they are not like MTN House just add water.

On a side note I always keep "case A & B MRE" on my Amazon list and it would appear that they are "We don't know when or if this item will be back in stock."

I looked for some different buying options just for the heck of it and could not find any.  Single MRE are at or above $20.  A lot of people must be panic buying because of Corona.

I used to get an A+B combo every so often whenever the prices would drop below $140~150.  Currently they are almost @ $500 for the combo & $35 per MRE.  I always though an MRE is worth $5 give or take but not $17...

If you don’t mind sharing the info, what was the last 4 or 5 digits of your order number? For comparison and Assuming they are running consecutively, I placed an order one week ago and mine was just under 2500.
Just curious

ETA, the estimated delivery was 2-4 weeks on that order IIRC.

Hey, if you want me to take a dump in a box and mark it guaranteed, I will. I got spare time.

Yep.  Just tried it.  Same price & free shipping.

Caveat that it may take 8 weeks to ship. (I don't care.)

In for 20. They will be great presents.

Update to my earlier critique.
I have prepared and eaten all of the different pouches. I must say, they are all quite good! Easy to prepare, cook fast and are delicious. My favorite is the potato soup followed by the chicken and rice. They make great stand alone meals or as a foundation to build on, depending what you have available.
You can't go wrong for the price or convenience. Get'em if you can and stash'em away or enjoy them for camping.

With free sipping? I'll try it out.

Funny, my wife asked me what I bought for $50. I told her and she said "You will be the one eating that crap".

I reminded her that if WE were eating that crap, things were very bad and that WE would be happy to have it. lol

She never blinked when I bought a 289 HiPo balancer I found for only $225 shipped this afternoon....women be that way sometimes.

My wife is the same way. She ignored me telling her to get double of whatever she normally buys grocery shopping. Fortunately I did my own shopping. Also, I told her to buy extra dog food. Of course she ignored that also. Today we get notice our Chewy.com order is backordered. I reminded her of what I said. I didn't tell her I bought extra dog food also. I hope we get our orders on time but if we don't I'm gonna make her sweat a little before I break out the extra bags
