We want you prepared

At Mountain Fresh Foods, we advocate the simple concepts of self-reliance and the piece of mind of preparing for the unexpected. Our products are designed to last 25+ years and provide the largest number of calories and highest number of meals we can fit into a self-contained kit.

Our most recently introduced kits are modeled after the staple components we encouraged our friends and family to gather as the storm clouds of COVID-19 became evident. In times of trouble, the simple foods that provide the highest number of meals win the day and feed your family.

All of our kits are in-stock, with rapid shipping. Feel free to give us a call or send us a message via the contact form if you have any questions.

Meal Foundation Kits to extend your pantry

Our line of Meal Foundation Kits are designed to expend your pantry to meet any challenge. Packed in a Life Latch resealable food-grade bucket, these kits are designed to last over 25 years if properly stored.

30 Day - Meal Foundation Kit

The Meal Foundation Kit was specifically designed to help families stretch their existing food supply and on-hand spices into nutritious meals with realistic calorie provision. This kit provides a whopping 38+ lbs and 54,604 calories of nutrient rich white rice, black beans, and pinto beans in a densely packed, 5-gallon food grade bucket. This product can be enjoyed either as stand-alone meals or used to stretch existing food supplies.

One person could live on this bucket 30+ days with meals including 1,800+ calories and at least 40g of protein a day!

In an emergency situation, THIS IS THE KIT YOU WANT - don't settle for products that cut your calorie count 70-80%.

The contents are packaged for long term storage using state of the art "Modified Atmosphere Packaging" (a fancy way of saying it's packed without oxygen) for freshness and are packed in heavy duty mylar bags fro the long term. Shelf life when properly stored can extend well over 25 years.

Remember SERVINGS DO NOT EQUAL MEALS!! Your average meal today might include 5-12 servings and work out to a per-day total 1,500-2,000 calories a day. Thus, these meal kits that include "3 servings a day" might total a mere 240 calories. Think about it, when you eat a meal do you have "1 serving" of mashed potatoes and put your plate away? No, you might have a serving of 3-4 things (consider the traditional "meat and three" ) and then an extra of something. As a benchmark, the average caloric total of an "MRE" (the military ration) is 1,200 calories (soldiers are issued THREE a day as they are active).

Proudly Made in the USA.

* Inner packaging may vary according to availability (although FDA approved mylar is always used)

Other Meal Foundation Kit Options

Additional, smaller sized of the Meal Foundation Kits are available in 10 and 20 day kits that are made up of a slightly smaller combination of components. These smaller kits are packaged in smaller versions of the same Life Latch® resealable food grade buckets as the deluxe kit.

These smaller kits are available for those on a tight budget, or situations where storage space is limited. An example of this might be keeping a 20 day Meal Foundation Kit in your vehicle (although the heat might lessen shelf life) for those situations where you can't get home or need to evacuate in a hurry.

The 20 day Meal Foundation Kit Plus is comprised of Long-Grain Rice, Black Beans and Pinto Beans plus Soup Base and Salt for seasoning purposes. The 20 Day Meal Foundation Kit Plus is packaged in a resealable Life Latch® 3.5 gallon container with a gasket for long life.

The 10 Day - Meal Foundation Kit is comprised of Long-Gran White Rice, Black Beans and Salt for seasoning. The 10 Day Meal Foundation Kit is packaged in a resealable Life Latch® 2.0 gallon container with a gasket for long life.
