Meal Kit Supply Canada Civilian MREs
Meal Kit Supply Canada is a Canadian company that imports Sopakco's civilian MREs from the United States and packages them in their own unique Canadian format. Technically called "Meal Kits" instead of MREs, these are CFIA (Canadian Food Inspection Agency) inspected and approved for distribution in Canada, which makes them the only civilian MREs that can be easily bought and sold in Canada without the buyer have to worry about shipping their US-purchased MREs through Canadian Customs and having to potentially pay import duties or even have the case of MREs seized.
The MRE menus are custom designed by Meal Kit Supply to only include the most popular entrees and sides (see Contents section below). Flameless Ration Heaters (FRHs) are optional and they sell cases either with or without FRHs included in each MRE meal bag. Each meal averages at least 950 calories.
The convenience of having locally-available civilian MREs does come at a price. In this case, that price if $119 CDN per case plus sales tax and shipping. For ordering information, please see their ordering page: https://secure.mealkitsupply.com/en/ordering.php.
