- Опубліковано 15 тра 2024
- Have you ever wondered what kind of food to pack in a Bug out Bag, EDC pack, or Get home Bag? Or just to keep in the car for emergencies? Emergency food for the car is often a problem because with cars temperatures can fluctuate tremendously. Foods either spoil quickly or have a short expiration date. Check out what I believe could be an excellent solution!

I've got to get some of those.
Roger that 😎🫡
I first experienced these in a 3-day emergency kit promoted by my daughter’s private school (when she was tiny). To the ready-made kit of water pouches and these tasty cookies we added family photos & personalized notes.
No emergency came, but IMAGINE the value of that kit if parents didn’t come for days.
My 2007 Murano (recently replaced) had an insulated center console. Even a foam lunch cooler inside a car would help.
I have a spot in my Jeep that I've thought about insulating. Great idea, to be honest. 😁👍
Afternoon Grey. I completely agree on the emergency ration bars for an emergency. People need to read all the nutritional values on any brand they stock. People need to realize, this is just for an emergency situation and not for meals everyday.
Agreed!
Great info Gray. That's what I keep in my car and Bob. I also keep hard candy and liquid IV drink mix.
Of course I always have other munchies in the glove box. I eat those on the regular.
Liquid IV is good stuff!
This is brilliant. Expensive but perfect for the get home bag. Really like this option.
Thanks Sonja 😁
From my experience, I've had food go rancid due to heat. For energy I've found those little straws of honey are good. Hard candy will survive, but sometimes sticks to the wrappers.
I have a stash of watermelon jolly ranchers packed in mine 😁
I was wondering about those, thanks!
My pleasure, Marilyn 😊
I agree with you brother love these for my truck! I'll have give that cinnamon one a try! 🤘
Cinnamon one is awesome 😁🤘
Never heard of SOS foods…I’ll check that out. Don’t forget the stool softeners with those MRE’s…🫤
Yeah 🤣👍
Thanks for putting the link. Where I live, we have both hot & cold weather. I try to change out food and clothing in bob twice s year. 👍
You are so welcome! 😊
Cool i did not know about these thanks, great video.
No problem! Thanks for watching 😁🤘
Very interesting I had never thought about having some rations in the van. This is why I love your channel always learning something new. God bless you and the misses
It is always best to have some options as a precaution. As they say better to have it and not need it than to not have it and need it. 😁
Thanks for doing this. Ive always wondered about those bars.
My pleasure, Cindy. I hope it helps folks out when running into this situation. Have a great weekend! 😊
I have a few of these. One that's past 5. Thinking of cracking it open because none of us have actually tried it... 😆
Mine was 7 years old and was still good to go 😁👍
I’ve eaten a 10 year old one (5 years past it’s due date). Edible, but kinda seemed like it was better off used as bait for traps at that point.
@@urbanbushcrafter1924 Repurpose & Reuse 😁🤘
Thanks for the review Grey. I like the cookie concept & not feeling I have to have water is great!👍 ❤
You need to have water either way!! Always have water in your bugout bag
Yes need to have water for drinking preferably a good water filter but it gives you the ability to save water for that purpose instead of using it to process your meals.
@@ultramagapatriot5874 yes we do need water. I was referring to what Grey said about it not making you thirsty.👍
I have been using these as well. I am out of Nevada and the weather is can be temperamental at times. SOS rations were suggested to me by a buddy in the coast guard.
Very cool!
I kept those sos in our boats and my vehicle also.
As they say, great minds think alike 😁
Good idea Grey, thanks! I’m in Fl now too, lived in Phoenix for 14 yrs & yeah it’s extreme! 😱but it’s a dry heat lol 🥵
Welcome to the Sunshine state 😆
When I watched your last live stream with Rudy and he mentioned he wasn’t a fan of these you got sour look on your face so I figured this was what you were going to make your video about lol😂. I really like these. I have two in my get home bag as well as some freeze dried food. I’m a truck driver so I’m often several hundred miles from home and I’m hoping I don’t have to walk home one of these days but I try to be as prepared as I can.
You're absolutely right, lol 😆 I personally think these are one of the best options for vehicle food storage. 😁👍
Thanks for letting us know about these.
My pleasure Sue! 😁
Hello from Mississippi Grey!!😊😊😊
Hello 👋 😁 🇺🇲
My husband said they used to issue these overseas in his missionaries groups in case of emergencies and to help others
Really, that's quite interesting. Thanks for sharing 🙏
Thank you, Grey.🎉 These might be a great idea for my picky eater brother-in-law who is on the road for 2 weeks at a time.😊
My pleasure, Cherie 😊
This is great. In PA the weathers is very hot in the summer and very cold in winter.
Awesome, I'm so glad it was helpful 😊
Thank you GreyMan ❤✝️
My pleasure as always 😊
I have survival tabs. These would be a good addition.
How do you like them, I've seen positive reviews and negative reviews. Someone had said they liked the chocolate ones, and I should try them.
You think it gets hot in Florida???? Try coming her to Phoenix during the summer. I had a red TA with black leather interior. I got off work and had shorts on, I jumped in the car and about almost instantly smelled something burning!!! I didn't feel it for a good three minutes!! Anyways, it was my thigh's being burned due to the heat. Couldn't walk right for a full week!!!
🤣 that sucks brother
@@GreyManPrepping It was my first summer out here. Every car since has had a remote starter and the AC cranked to the lowest!!! LOL!!!! Lesson was learned real fast that day!!!
And ya, I keep those same S.O.S. bars
@@FatmanPrepper I was just telling Boone great minds think a like 😆🤘
Woah! That’s why we fight over one branch of shade. I’m in Chandler so I’ve felt your pain.😢🙋♀️
I live in the midwest, hot summers, I've been looking for something for the vehicles to withstand the heat and cold temperatures we experience. Thanks Grey
My pleasure, Glad you found this helpful 😁👍
I like temperature’s it can withstand. I live in the desert area (just sand, there are no cactus 🌵, just dirt) and it gets super hot. I will definitely check them out.
Thanks David 😁👍
I have these on my boat but never thought to put some in my vehicles. Its a good idea, and I think I'm gonna do it. Thanks for the video!
My pleasure! And thanks for watching Dave 😁👍
Yes please do a video on water in the car. 7 months out of the year , mine would be frozen, breaking any container it's in . Then there's freezing and thawing to contend with. You may need APs advice on this.
Yes, AP would definitely be a valued source for freezing temperatures 😆👍
I'm always on the road. I take fresh with me daily. I know that some bottled water manufacturers put a tiny bit of salt in their bottles to keep it from freezing. I might experiment with that next winter as I always take purified water from home to avoid microplastics.
@@WillowofMoonHaven Maybe add a bit of Redmonds salt? It's one of my favorite brands.
Put your water in bag style flexible container, and in cardboard box or some thing to protect it went container freezes the bag is easier to puncture work for me in northern Minnesota
Good for hunting trips.
Thanks for sharing 😁👍
I definitely need to put food in my vehicle I have a bug out bag and water but never really do food
I'm in NC and summers get HOT here too. I'm not sure what to put in my get home bag so it's at home. 🤷♀️
These have been working great for me here in Florida for the past 10 years.
Thanks. Just ordered some and potable water packs for us and kids.
Awesome! I'm glad you found this information helpful, Sam. 😁
If you do decide to store some granola bars, stick to the hard Oats and Honey variety. They are the most stable. The peanut butter and the chocolate ones will go bad in a year, year and a half depending on your climate if stored in your car. Never store the soft ones or those fruit filled breakfast bars. They go bad too quick. The same with Clif bars and other energy bars. They are good for a while, but after a year, they have to go.
If you are thinking car storage of food, the drier and more tightly sealed, the better. You could even stuff everything into a sealed jar for some extra protection from the elements.
You just need some foods that can withstand both heat and cold, the temperature changes and possible moisture. I would suggest Corn Nuts, freeze dried fruit, and dry roasted peanuts as long as they are still vacuum sealed. For a quick boost of energy, Tootsie Rolls last a long time when sealed away from moisture. I would go with a year cycle on replacing everything, to be safe.
Thanks so much for sharing your thoughts with everyone Linda! 😊🙏
THKS
No problem 😁👍
I’ve never had those but I’m probably gonna give them a try. In my bag I’ve kept a couple mountain house meals. I’ve always got water and a filter to purify more. I also always carry fire starters and those solid fuel tablets. But it would be nice to have something that you don’t need all the water. 👍👍
I buddy of mine put me on to those years back when I had stuff like peanut butter and various other foods go bad. He was in the Coast Guard. Personally, I like them. It's honestly a survival food, and I don't need anything fancy, lol 😆
Yep, this is what I have in my Jeep. I used to carry energy bars, being diabetic, but in Utah, Summer in a black jeep, yeah, that was interesting with the energy bars, so upped my game to the SoS.
Awesome! I drive a gladiator 😁👍
Thank you!
You bet! 😁
For get it and forget it I 100% agree but for a more active preparation I found Belvita crunchy cinnamon brown sugar breakfast biscuits last for 60+ days in your center council during summer in Florida 👍 also I’m a fan of peanut butter pouches the small milar packs I’ve had one that was in the center council for a couple of weeks and finally when ever traveling further than I could walk in a day I always throw a can of ravioli in the car just in case. If I find myself in trouble I can just eat my ravioli and think about how to make my situation better. Plus there are many bush craft use for a sharp lid and a can 👍
Thanks for sharing your thoughts 😁👍
Mainstay, SOS, Daltrex. Can’t go wrong with any of them.
Absolutely 👍
Never seen these thank you for this review 🕊️ I haven’t been on much I’m glad to be back
Welcome back! Hope all is well 🙏
EXCELLENT topic ! ✅️
Thank you!
I have those, for the same reason. Also keep a 6-pack of water, in a cooler bag, in the car. Life in Florida.😄🌴 🌞
Yep, gotta love the Florida life, lol 😆 God bless ya JT 🙏💛
Great ideas! Can you do a video on leaving water bottles in your car for long periods?? Like living in a hot climate and a fluctuating climate.
Sure thing! Definitely add that to my idea board for sure. 😁👍
Interesting. I don't leave anything in my vehicle because of the huge temperature fluctuations. I keep energy bars, granola, and dried fruits in the bag I put in my vehicle when I leave the house. I pack much more if leaving the island - military style water containers, Nutrient Survival quick food packs, vitamin coffee, small cooking set, etc if the vehicle is leaving the island - just because
Very smart! I grew up on a Island 😁
I keep a case of water in my car, going to add a back pack with I light tarp along with valcumn sealed dehydrated veggies and ramen soups all vacuum sealed and a camping burner that I can use sticks to burn, lighter and tp . I work 34 miles from home, it will take me days to get home and my back pack will get lighter as days go by but keeping hydrated and fed so I can make it home is first, a means of defense is important.
Sounds great, I'm truly glad you have a plan and thought this out. Thanks so much for sharing. 😁
The chocolate ones are the best. It's hard to figure out when temps range from -40 to 100 plus.
I personally keep a temp gage in my rear console. It records the temperature fluctuations. I have 3 years of data so far.
Great video 👍
Thanks brother 🙏
I really applicate the info in this video Grey! thank you. I have always wonder4ed about options for the vehicle and my BOB
Thanks so much! 🙏💛
👋🏻😄👍♥️👏🏼👏🏼 Hey Grey!!
Hey Cbass! 😁 Hope all is well 🙏💛
Yeah those are good and contains a high calorie value it will not fill you up but it will give you the energy to keep going.
Absolutely 😁🤘
@@GreyManPrepping Yeah i have the N5 emergency bars and some other ones as well.
@ShadowScoutSwede Awesome brother 🤘
@@GreyManPrepping Yeah it is and the other brand is convar they have different flavors too. peanut, multivitamin, choko and those are really delicious the shelf life is 10 years
@@ShadowScoutSwede Nice, I'll have to check them out. Thank you.
I keep cliff bars with no chocolate , instant rice , freeze dried strawberry crunch granola with creme , sugar free lifesavers, water , powder electrolytes , Folgers coffee singles , 12 v cooking stove . a 5 hour energy is the food in my kit . I dont like those ration bars . I have ate plenty of them in the past .
Thanks for sharing!!
Good video 😊
Thank you! 😁
Ihave the pouched tuna and chicken packets that I put in my get home bag along with the emergency ration bars. I don't have a vehicle. jerkeys may be a good option for a shorter time then the emergenct rations
Jerky can be a bit tricky. You want to keep it out of direct sunlight and away from heat. Exposure to these conditions can cause jerky to go bad quickly. This is because bacteria can grow on the surface of the jerky. My brother had this happened to him years ago while traveling.
@@GreyManPrepping that is why it has to be inside another bag r container. in colder months it is a perfect travel food
I can only wish we had cold weather in my neck of the woods. I do miss the snow around the holidays.
I haven't particularly tired those exact branded bars, however i have sampled a few varietys of Datrex bars, all in all decent flavor as most of them do infact taste similar to a cookie of sorts. if you get the chance to test tem out try the packs from Ready Hour, Decent price though ill be honest i cannot remember if they were individually sealed or not once you open the main Mylar bag. Anywho have a great day Grey. Catch you on the flip side.
You're the 2nd person who has mentioned the Datrex bars, so my interest has been peaked 🤣 Thanks for swinging by, brother. 🙏
Hi Grey, most of the time I basically agree with what you say and do. I'm so sorry to say, I think these SOS bars are a complete waste of money! They taste absolutely horrible in my opinion. I tried the cinnamon, the "lemon creme", and the plain. All of them were "gross" and dry tasting.... No cookie flavour at all. I thought maybe it was me, so I offered them to my son and husband and youngest daughter, all of whom will eat ANYTHING. They said these were the worst experiment I had ever given them. I double checked to make sure they were still "fresh", no "pinholes" in packaging, and I bought them direct from Amazon. I then offered the still sealed packages to our local SAR, along with the opened packages so they could taste test. They too, thought they were terrible and declined them. So, unless these have significantly improved in the last 3 years, I'm sorry to say "don't buy these!" Or perhaps I should say, " Buy with caution and taste test first". (Which I know you did).
As for what I keep in our trucks, I keep an assortment of dried fruits, nuts, canned individual fruits, canned veggies, canned soups and chili, canned tuna, pre-cooked bags of rice/lentils, crackers, individual pkts of graham crackers, and hard candies. As well as individual "condiments" that I can get at a restaurant supply store. These are all items we eat on a regular basis, so every month I swap out the "old" and put in the fresh. I also make sure these are items we are willing to eat out of the package without cooking first. Btw, my husband is retired disabled vet and was used to eating "C" rations; I worked for a State organization and had to "taste test" the " new" MRE's (thank the good Lord MRE's are improved).
Grey, thank you so much for all you do to help us be prepared. I hope my comment about the SOS bars is not considered rude. I just wanted to let you know that there might be a difference of opinion.
My best to all!
Not rude at all. We all have different likes and dislikes, I'm glad you shared your experience. For instance, I tried those Survival Tabs, oh lord, were they horrible 😆 but folks kept mentioning them, so I gave them a try. I hope you have a great weekend, and please never refrain from sharing your thoughts. God bless 🙏
I carry SOLAS bars. 3600 calories and don't make you thirsty.
Thanks for sharing! 😁👍
Diabetics...please carry extra meds with you and be mindful that most prepackaged foods like the ones mentioned will wreck havoc on your system. I carry homemade dehydrated/freezedried pouch type meals with meat, veggies, and cheese in them. I also have a backpackers stove/kit and water with me. Matter of fact I'm on the road a lot Door Dashing so I always carry food and water anyways.
Definitely need to take additional steps if you have any type of health issues. In an emergency, they can be exasperated. Stay safe, folks. 🙏
@@GreyManPrepping hope this doesn't get taken as being picky. Just wanted to remind ppl to think of it
@WillowofMoonHaven I truly understand thier are certain situations that would supercede certain medical issues like diabetes more so long-term or starvation situations. That being said, you have to be vigilant in regard to health issues that could cause more harm than sustainability.
👍
Thanks Donna 😁
I'm not sure about the ingredients. Sugar is the first item and the rest do not seem good either. Other than not making you thirsty, is it the calories that make it good or that it will not be affected by temperature?
It's geared to survival in a Pinch to keep ya moving. It's not something I'd eat on a regular basis 😄 I'm an avid label reader these days myself, and some of the things they put into food these days is plain scary.
Hi Grey, for the first time I have bought something like that for my BOB. My plan is to add a small bottle of raw honey or peanut butter for extra flavor & taste, would that be a good idea? And what else can we add to the bars?
So this is a 2-part question lol 😆 so first, let's tackle the honey, Heating past the maximum hive temperature of 95 degrees Fahrenheit changes honey's essential composition and degrades its quality. It partially destroys honey's beneficial enzyme. Now, the peanut butter, peanut butter, can melt and become gooey when left in a hot car. Some say that natural peanut butter can separate and go rancid if left in a hot car, especially the oils. However, commercial peanut butter is stable at all temperatures. Hopefully, that helps. 😁👍
Helps very much, thank you.
@@Ali-prepper Awesome 😁👍
👍👍
Thank you!
Dang I can’t eat the wheat flour that is in them😢
That's unfortunate, I've always wondered if they use rice instead of wheat as another option if possible.
I wonder if there's a gluten free one?
@WillowofMoonHaven Yeah, I figured if they were to use rice flour, that could definitely be a possibility.
Hello Mr. Grey, I am still trying to get ahold of someone from Nutrient Survival. You gave me there info but I get no response. Any advice?
Have you tried to reach out to Becky? Send me an email if anything, and I can forward it over.
I wish these were gluten-free. I'm open to suggestions if anyone in the community knows any. Blessings 🙌.
I'll try to do some research.
@@GreyManPrepping Thank you 😊. I think it's an untapped market.
@@watertiger319 Agreed 😊
Sorry but i dont eat anything with hydrogenated oils.
Great idea though ... ✅️
This would be for an absolute emergency, I honestly feel anyone in a starvation or food deficient would eat just about anything.
