4Patriots LLC Officials Respond to News That Food Expiration Dates Might Be Eliminated
Feb 22, 2017
Are food expiration dates on the way out? Two major food organizations are recommending just that. 4Patriots LLC officials want people to know that their Food4Patriots survival food is good for 25 years.
Nashville, TN, United States - February 22, 2017 /MarketersMedia/ —
Does food go bad after the expiration dates on its packaging have passed, or are food manufacturers merely trying to protect their reputations because their food tastes better prior to those dates?
According to an article from National Public Radio, the Grocery Manufacturers Association and the Food Marketing Institute are recommending the abolishment of food labels such as “Expires on” and “Sell by.” Officials from those organizations say that food rarely spoils by those dates and that consumers frequently throw out perfectly safe food.
4Patriots LLC officials understand that concern, but are glad their customers don’t have to check expiration dates. Their Food4Patriots survival food has a shelf life of 25 years. They suggest that people purchase good-tasting, nutritious food with a long shelf life in order to prepare for emergencies.
“I can understand why food manufacturers want people to consume their products when they are at their peak for taste, but it’s unfortunate that it results in so much perfectly good food being thrown away by concerned consumers,” said Allen Baler, Partner at Nashville, Tenn.-based 4Patriots.
“I understand that the average American family throws away $1,500 worth of good food each year, and that’s tragic considering how many hungry people there are in this country. Our goal by offering food with a long shelf life is to make sure people have healthy food when extreme weather or another crisis strikes, causing the food supply chain to be disrupted.”
The 72-hour, one-week, four-week, three-month and one-year emergency food kits from Food4Patriots have shelf lives of up to 25 years, so it’s not necessary to periodically rotate stockpiles.
The food in these kits can be prepared in less than 20 minutes and requires only boiling water. It’s contained in easy-to-store, space-age Mylar pouches – which keep out air, moisture and light – and tucked inside tough, stackable totes that are discreet and store anywhere – basement, attic, garage, shed, cabin or even an RV.
Food4Patriots provides emergency food products that are shelf-stable for 25 years. Food4Patriots survival food kits are made with food grown, harvested and packaged in the United States, and all of the meals are made without any genetically-modified products, preservatives or fillers. The kits are available in 72-hour, one-week, four-week, three-month and one-year supplies.
