{"product_id":"datrex-3600-calorie-emergency-food-bar","title":"Datrex 3600 Calorie Emergency Food Bar","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis is the food bar that lives in my truck kit and in every go bag I build. It is not a meal, it does not taste like much beyond coconut, and that is the point: it is 3,600 calories of shelf-stable energy that takes no water, no stove, and no thinking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat it is\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne vacuum-sealed foil package holds 18 ready-to-eat bars at 200 calories each. Datrex makes these for lifeboats and liferafts, and this package carries U.S. Coast Guard approval number 160.046\/8\/0. The bars are formulated to be non-thirst provoking, so you aren't burning through your water supply to get food down, which is the real reason I pick these over a granola bar from the gas station. Rationed at one bar every 4 to 6 hours, one package stretches about three days for one person at roughly 1,200 calories a day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eStraight talk\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese are made from enriched wheat flour, vegetable shortening (palm oil), cane sugar, water, and natural coconut flavoring, so they are not gluten-free and they are not a long-term diet. They are the bridge that keeps you moving until you get to real food. Shelf life is typically 5 years; check the best-by date on the package and rotate it when you swap your car kit each season.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecs\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOne package: 18 bars, 3,600 calories total (200 per bar)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUSCG approved, #160.046\/8\/0\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVacuum-sealed foil, typically 5-year shelf life (verify date on package)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReady to eat, no preparation, non-thirst provoking\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: about 1.8 lb\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIngredients: enriched wheat flour, vegetable shortening (palm oil), cane sugar, water, natural coconut flavoring\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePut one in the car, one in the boat, and one in each go bag.
