## Description

Product Description Basic Survival Kit From the Manufacturer Each kit contains enough emergency supplies to sustain two people for three days, as recommended by the American Red Cross. There's food, water, and emergency blankets, plus a 33-piece First Aid kit, two 12-hour safety light sticks, dust masks, nitrile gloves, and an emergency whistle. Each kit also contains emergency ponchos and pocket tissues. The kit, in a handy backpack, can be stored at home, at school, or at the office.

Review: Great start for a GOOD (Get out of Dodge) Bag - This is a cheap, easy way to get a bag that meets the "Get out of Dodge" Need. With preparedness you can spend literally years planning, purchasing, storing the right stuff. For every item you choose you can find some crank on the internet that will accuse you of capital crimes for buying the wrong item. That could lead to analysis paralysis. This item solves for that. For not a lot of money, you can buy this item and know that in a worst-case scenario, you'll have the basics covered with a nicely-packed, ready-to-do item you can have at the ready. Get these now and customize/optimize later. You can probably pack a bit more into these bags too if you want. I inspected the items and found most on the packing list. (I didn't want to completely unpack and repack because you never get it repacked the way it was.) The food is an austere brick of something. The water is probably minimally adequate in quantity. But this is a small, easy to leave in your car, kind of backpack. Again, not looking for perfect, but looking for something that will get you through a worst-case situation. If that situation comes, I doubt you'll be complaining about this stuff, but will be rather glad you have something. The nice thing about this kit is it comes with a postage-paid postcard that reminds you when the expiration dates for the kit are close so you can resupply. I would expect you can find other things to replace the kit items so no need to reorder everything. I bought one with the intention of buying another if this one meets the needs above. I think I will. Everyone in a disaster-prone region MUST have this item or one like it for every two people. Don't bet your life on Uncle Sam.
Review: Great emergency kit - Had just about everything I needed for a to go bag. Enough room to add other essentials as well.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: I deal with Diabetes and other health issues - what are the ingredients for the meal packs? What is the Nutiriton info?**
A: I do not own this kit but I hope this is helpful.  From looking at the image, that's the Mayday 2400-calorie emergency food pack.  Those are sold separately here on Amazon.  I've copied and pasted the nutritional info here.  It may of course change somewhat from one production run to the next, but this should give you a general idea.  The main thing you are probably interested in is the carb, fiber, and sugar content, and I'd say these have a pretty standard dose compared to the other products on the market.From the individual product page:  High in All Recommended VITAMINS (100% RDA Vitamin A, E, B5, B12, Pantothenic Acid, Niacin, Copper, C, D, Calcium, Folate, Biotin, Iodine, & Zinc. 4% RDA of Iron) * Meets SOLAS 74/83 Requirements * 5 Year Shelf Life * Non-Thirst Provoking * Withstands Temperatures of -22 deg F to 149 deg F * Absolutely No Cholesterol or Tropical Oils * U.S. Coast Guard Approved 160.046/A28/0 Finally!!! Not only a food ration that tastes great but it's also very nutritious. After years of research and development, the food bars are great tasting food rations that have a five year shelf life and are U.S. Coast Guard approved under the new licensing requirements of 1995. Great for extended Hiking Trips, Backpacking, Canoeing, Rafting, Eco Challenges, Camping, Emergency Rations, Short Term Weight Loss, Survival of Life at Sea, Earthquake Preparedness, Blizzards, Floods, Disaster, Emergency food supply or any Survival situation. Make no compromise - Get the very best!

**Q: Can the water packets expand for freezing temperatures without bursting? I am thinking of keeping this in my car in the winter, sub zero temps.**
A: My family of five has one of these three day survival packs in each of their car trunks all year long.  None of us has experienced any problems with the water packets bursting. The packets have enough room for expansion.

**Q: How big is the backpack? Thanks!**
A: It's roughly 10" wide, 14" tall, and 6" deep. The front pocket is about 7" wide, 5.5" tall, and 1.5-2" deep. It comes already packed with some cardboard pieces to keep it organized - it's surprising how much they managed to cram into this thing - every millimeter of space was used.  The straps are about 14" long (for the padded portion) with extension of about 12-13". The straps are kind of thin but unless you're faced with a zombie apocalypse and/or need something to last you several months out in rugged terrain, this should be fine.  That being said, I wanted to include extra items like a battery/solar-powered radio, additional bandaids, allergy medicine, matches, tissue, hair ties, an army knife, toothbrush/paste, etc. so I ended up getting a larger backpack and put this pack's items in it along with my additions.  I'm currently using this pack for pet supplies...  I figured an emergency pet-pack wasn't a bad idea.

**Q: Are the bandages and other supplies in the first aid kit latex free?**
A: You won't care about latex when your bleeding out on the side of the road.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great emergency kit

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great for Fleet vehicles
*by J***I on October 25, 2025*

Our fleet at my work used to get $60 red cross emergency kits, but they came with less than half the stuff this one does for half the price. I got one for each vehicle, paired with an additional med kit, and feel much better about my teams preparedness. Great value in this bag!
