Food4Patriots Frequently Asked Questions
If you’re reading this email or blog post, chances are you have purchased one or more of our Food4Patriots survival food kits.
Food4Patriots has been our best selling product for several years now, which makes sense. Survival food ranks right up there among the top items we all need when a disaster strikes.
But still, folks sometimes have questions about our food. Such as what are the various kit sizes, how long the food is good for, where the best place is to keep it… even whether it’s safe for their pets to eat.
So, I thought we’d take a look at some of the most common questions people have about our food and answer them right here and now. Here we go:
Q: I have food allergies. How do I know which ingredients are in your food items?
A: Here’s a link where you can download the full list of ingredients for each of our food items: http://secure.food4patriots.com/media/pdf/Food4Patriots-Ingredients.pdf
Q: What are the different sizes of kits you offer?
A: 72-hour, one-week, four-week, three-month and one-year kits.
Q: How long are my Food4Patriots food items good for?
A: A vast majority of them have shelf lives of up to 25 years, so it’s not necessary to periodically rotate stockpiles.
Q: Is it difficult or time consuming to prepare Food4Patriots meals?
A: The food in these kits can be prepared in less than 20 minutes and requires only boiling water.
Q: Do I have to store the Food4Patriots kits in a certain way and in a certain place?
A: The food is contained in easy-to-store, space-age Mylar pouches to keep out air, moisture and light. The pouches are tucked inside tough, stackable totes that are discreet and store anywhere – basement, attic, garage, shed, cabin or even an RV. We recommend you store the food at room temperature or below (around 76 degrees F or lower). Temperatures of 100 F or higher may cause the food to lose some of its nutritional value.
Q: Where does the food come from and is any of it genetically modified?
A: Food4Patriots survival food kits are made with food grown, harvested and packaged in the United States. All of the meals are made without any genetically-modified products, preservatives or fillers.
Q: How do I open and view the bonus materials that come with my kit?
Once you’ve downloaded the manuals to your computer, you’ll need Adobe Acrobat Reader to view them. Don’t worry, Adobe Acrobat Reader costs nothing and it’s already installed on most computers. If you don’t have it or for some reason your book still won’t open, please visit www.Adobe.com to download the newest version and install it.
A: Can I choose what goes in my kits?
Q: Because Food4Patriots is a “do-it-for you” preparation solution, out kits are pre-made ahead of time to ship quickly and get you what you need as soon as possible. So, we are unable to individually customize our kits.
Q: I noticed a smell coming from the food totes. What’s that about?
A: Our food is freshly packaged and freshly packaged food always has an aroma for a great period of time. Try wiping down the packages and totes with a Clorox wipe or something similar to reduce those food smells. Each tote has a list of the items it contains below the handle. Also, please be sure to inspect each package. If there are any air or food particles escaping these packages, please let us know so that we may assist you in getting these replaced.
Q: When I want to order more food, I don’t want to watch the entire sales video again. Can’t I just order it?
A: Yes. Please go to the following link to place your order or give us a call at 800-304-4202 and one of our phone representatives will be happy to assist you with placing your order.
Q: Is it OK to give any Food4Patriots food items to my dog?
A: Dogs can safely eat our food (except the chocolate pudding). It’s real, nutritious food. But, like all people food, we caution the overfeeding of our food to pets. You need to be very aware of serving sizes, which are measured for adult humans. Also, remember that dogs by their nature have a higher protein need than people, so be careful with your choices. That said, our freeze-dried meats are wonderful choices for every member of your family – including your pets.
Why do some of your videos leave the reader no choice but to either watch the entire video or simply get out of it. In other words, why not a “pause” option. Many times, I am interested in a product, but do not have time to watch a LONG video.
Or an incoming phone call that you need to hear. It forces us to mute the computer speakers and let it continue in silence.
Add pinto beans,MALTO Meal and plain oatmeal to your menu choices!! Not everyone cares for maple flavored cereals and I for one prefer MALTO MEAL over cream o wheat or maple flavored oatmeal!! In my opinion Pinto beans have a better flavor than black beans!!
Is there anyway you can lower the sodium in your food? I have chronic kidney disease and high amounts of sodium are not good. As much as I would like to stock up on food this is not an option for me to stock up on food with high amounts of sodium.
I too like Karen Wheelwright need low sodium meals, so, an option for low salt meals would be greatly appreciated.
Would like to Thank You Frank – on sending we a free pizza- made it the other day — had a nieghabor friend – we both LOVED it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wish your pizza kits were made with Unbleached org.flour. Bleached flour is toxic! Do any of us need that really?
Question: Do you sell or plan to sell Decaf Coffee? I don’t use caffeine due to history of irregular heartbeat, but love coffee in the cooler weather.
I have purchased several of your one year kits to be ready if the SHTF as you call it. I really like President Trump and hope he continues to keep the illegals from coming into our country like ants to a new home where everything we had to work so hard to get is being given to them. Any how, it’d great to have Food4Patriots in stock and thank you guys for all you have done to help us out when the libtards start their stupid causes such as blacklivesmatter. It is insane as all lives matter not just the rich stupid AAs think they should also get everything for nothing.
Calories per serving would seem to be a high value consideration. As I’m sure you are aware, another company makes their sales pitch using this data.
Your thoughts?
I am a big fan of your products and feel comfortable ordering from your website for good quality products. But I cant understand why your recent emails have taken issue with Costco over its one year family pack of four for 6K? Your 90 day supply for one is $400 times 16 is 6.4K!!! Ouch!!! So what is so bad with their price???
How long can I safely store bottle water?
The only comment I have is the serving size, I live by myself and don’t eat large amounts of any food at one setting can your food be reheated?
will you ever offer lower sodium options ?
Sent you a suggestion years ago about changing your storage container from plastic to metal. What happens if you get rats in your house. That food will be gone and you will never know it. Right now just found that rats have eaten almost a 25 lb. bag of dog food that I had stored, yet only had a few dropping to make me start looking for their food source.
I love your website. I bought the Distiller and extra filters. Survival food. Power green. The power greens has helped with the swelling and pain in joints.
Next is the generator.
Thank you
