I am looking to replace my emergency food supplies.
I have been storing canned items, but I have seen the cans bloat after a while and I understand it is not a good sign...

MREs sound like a good option, easier to store, longer shelf life etc...
Problem is, having not served, I have no direct knowledge and I would like to hear your opinions (pros, cons etc.).
They seem to be quite expensive:

$75 for 12 servings sounds like a lot, but then again, I wouldn't know...
Anybody has a better source?

Also, this keeps popping out:

Sounds almost to good to be true, $147 for 252 servings, with up to 25 years shelf life!
Anybody has any experience with them?

Thank you for your help!
