Product details & specifications

The details that matter

Product overview

How we choose and describe our products →

Keep compact, ready-to-eat food in your emergency reserves. These Datrex packs need no stove or preparation water.

  • Four 3,600-calorie packs: 14,400 calories total.
  • Each pack contains 18 individually wrapped 200-calorie bars.
  • 72 small bars across the four packs; not 72 complete meals.
  • Drinking water is not included.

Ingredients & household fit

Contains wheat. Manufacturer-listed ingredients include enriched wheat flour, malted barley flour, palm oil, cane sugar, water and natural coconut flavoring. Check the delivered label for your household’s dietary needs. Use ration bars as part of a broader food plan.

Shelf-life guidance

Datrex states five years from manufacture. This is not five years guaranteed from delivery. Manufacturer specifications describe the individual 3,600-calorie ration; this listing is four packs, not the manufacturer’s 20-pack case.

Storage & dates

Inspect the seal and printed date when your order arrives. Store unopened food as directed on its label and rotate your supply. Remaining shelf life varies by production batch; we do not guarantee a minimum remaining term. Contact us before ordering if you need a specific date range.
