Some people that prefer to be alone arent anti-social they just have no time for drama, stupidity and false people.

RE: Vestey Foods MRE
The name Vestey rings a bell, are they one of the suppliers for the modern military rations?...... hold on a sec......

Just checked my GHB I've got a few rations of Boil In Bag Beans and pork sausages in a foil pack, I got them out of those rat packs I bought from EVAC8 last month they are made by Vestey

Looking online the shelf life is advertised as 18 months to 2 years, so may not be ideal if you are looking for long term storage.

The freeze dried Mountain House tins (which I think are the same as the packets) are good for 25+ years....

Yep 25 years:
