Can't say enough good things about MRE's. I keep a case of them in the back of my pickup (tonneau-covered bed). I like them because you get a full, balanced meal w/o having to worry about spoilage or space. And the flameless heaters are great too--even though I find that the Texas summer sun heats them up w/o any help. And the cheese in them is more like Cheese Whiz than the real deal...
If space is vital, you can order the entrees separately from Cheaper Than Dirt. You can also get the full MRE packages & even the large ones to feed multiple persons (for those romantic dinners, you know... )
As for emergency rations, the bars are OK, but there are better options. I'd opt for trail mix, nuts, or dried, unsalted jerky (turkey jerky is great) rather than the manufactured stuff.
Keep the emergency rations for the direst emergencies, but keep the MRE's for the "ordinary" emergencies....
