A recent study has been conducted. Regarding shelf life or "best taste" of Mountain House Packs and Cans. Actual 30 year old or more products were tested.
That had been stored in various temps in warehouses all over.
Granted, there were some changes in taste and consistency, and differences in preferences by those tasting the products was also taken into account.
This new rating is also being retroactively applied as well. For the more information. Click the link to the article below. I posted this under this forum. Because it also relates to their military products.
