Mountain House has a lot of meat entrees alone with canned meat in #10 cans. Most of the canned meat is pre cooked but sometimes you can find uncooked in #10 cans either MH or what they call mil surplus, I believe a lot of the freeze dried canned steak, shrimp, salmon etc is going into .gov bunkers for politicians and gov workers not the military. If you are feeding 4 adults the Mountain House #10 cans are a good way to go.
OK back to basics, what time frame do you want to prepare for, freeze dried is good for 30 years plus but many canned goods will still be edible after 10 years or longer if stored properly and are a lot cheaper. Rice, honey, salt, sugar etc last forever with proper storage, I would think noodles would last a long time also. Keystone canned meats have a 5 year best by date but should last a lot longer and all this canned stuff is going to be a lot cheaper than FD'd. You can go on youtube and find people eating 10-15 year old MRE's or canned goods and not dying. I would recommend getting both FD and canned, the Keystone beef or some canned chicken with some BBQ sauce and rice make a decent meal.
