Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

First of all the food tastes terrible. Strong chemical taste. But if your thinking "hey, its survival food, its supposed to taste bad" and you really don't care because you hope you never have to eat it, the joke is on you. WISE doesn't meet the most basic standards for Oxygen content. The military says anything above 2% is unacceptable for food storage. The Oxygen content in the air we breath is around 20%. So what is the oxygen content in WISE foods. Yep, 20%. This stuff won't be any good in ten years when you need it. Look for emergency food that packs their food with Oxygen absorbers such as Mountain House, or Legacy Premium. Their O2 levels are about 1%. One last thing, this food isn't even easy to cook. With other brands you can cook in the pouch it came in, in about 8 minutes. This stuff takes about 30 minutes in boiling water and it is still unappetizing. Do yourself a favor, at least try a sample of this before you buy it.
