Cleaning out expired food preps

http://www.survivalistboards.com/showthread.php?t=107522 Taking the time to clean out some of my expired food preps. These meals are called "heater meals" They contain a heater - much like an MRE heater, main meal, snack and sometimes a juice drink.

i am so glad that you took that food from relief agencies, only to throw it away many years later, does surviving equate to taking handouts you don't need. If you were prepared for disasters you wouldn't need to run to the government handouts. At least you are going to feed the possums with it, which is exactly where i hoped my red cross donations and tax dollars would end up. From the american taxpayer I would like to thank you from the bottom of my heart.

@aacsteveo - you only know part of the story.

1 - why should I use my preps when people are willing to give me stuff? Think about it for a little while. I might do a video about that.

2 - after hurricanes Ike and Rita, my wife and I had 4 family units staying with us. Part of these food preps belonged to those other families. When they returned home, they asked me to hold onto these meals. If they needed the meals, I would either bring them to the families, or they would come get them.

kevin i wish you could have eaten the meals before they expired or at least donated to needy families, we really need as a society to start using resources wisely and cut out needless wasting. i hope that in the future you will check your supplies more often and not let good resources go to waste.

@1978graham - I agree. The heater meals were stored in the bottom of the pantry and were forgotten about. I lost track of time, and before I knew it, the meals had been expired by almost a year.

It's good to have an "Emergency Plan," but too often, these types are praying for doomsday.

Expiration dates are very conservative. The food is good LONG past expiration. I work for a company that buys almost-expired food for practically nothing and sells it.

@Slayer14501011 those foods are still safe for dogs to eat. Trust me, my dog isn't poor or defenseless. He'll eat anything and protect himself. He ain't no yorkey or whatever you liberals always whine about. Dogs have the stomach for these foods, and it's not bad for them either.

No respect for domestic animals like dogs like i can understand bugs and rat and raccons but dogs? Who feeds poor defenceless creatures spoiled meat and potatos

Believe me people. If the S really does HTF, you are going to eat anything. Regardless of the expiration date. Pet food, etc. In extreme situations, even the pet itself.

how much food does the average person waste from their everyday meals even? examine your own practices before jumping on someone else, let alone someone who is trying to share knowledge..
