When it comes to long-term food storage, many people immediately think of store-bought canned foods. After all, canned foods are readily available, relatively inexpensive, and last for years on the shelf. However, while they have their place, store-bought canned foods may not necessarily be the best option for long-term storage, particularly when compared to the offerings from a specialized provider like My Patriot Supply.
Firstly, let’s talk about shelf-life. While canned foods can last up 5 years or more depending on the contents and how it’s stored, My Patriot Supply offers long-term storage foods that can last 25 or more years. This extended shelf-life is an immense advantage for those preparing for emergencies or unforeseen circumstances.
In terms of nutritional value, canned foods often come with high sodium content and may lack essential nutrients due to the preservation process. On the other hand, My Patriot Supply’s freeze-dried foods retain the majority of their nutrients, providing a balanced meal that ensures you’re getting the necessary vitamins and minerals for optimum health during challenging times.
Preparation is another crucial factor to consider. Canned foods, while pre-cooked, often taste better when heated, requiring a reliable heat source. However, My Patriot Supply’s foods simply require water—hot or cold. This could be a significant advantage during emergencies when fuel or power sources are limited.
Variety is also something to consider. While canned foods offer a good range of choices, they’re typically limited to singular ingredients (like beans, corn, or peaches) or basic meals (like soup or chili). My Patriot Supply offers a much wider array of options from breakfasts, lunches, dinners, and even drinks, offering not just sustenance but a measure of comfort and normalcy in difficult circumstances.
Lastly, the packaging of canned foods can be a disadvantage. Cans are bulky, heavy, and take up significant storage space…and they can rust. The packaging from My Patriot Supply is lightweight and compact, designed to be stacked and stored efficiently. This makes them much easier to manage, whether you’re storing them at home or packing them for an adventure.
Overall, while store-bought canned foods are a reasonable option for shorter-term emergencies, a dedicated long-term food supply from My Patriot Supply offers some major advantages for long-term preparedness and survival.

I have a variety but the last 6 months I’ve been sticking to freeze dried proteins. I’m still buying solar panels and a battery every other month. I’m not giving up so much with buying long term. Just remember! Experience? Being able to walk or run away is the only way. A old man from Nassau county Florida who was a dairy equipment salesman for decades said. Man you know what a expert is? Someone who knows just a little bit more than you. Living off grid in 3rd world in a narco state? It was a visitor (SF guy delta). Said man your gonna have to run. You can’t defend this place with a entire platoon of badasses. Of course I was very mad. I had designed/ built and sold dozens of high security compounds for rich gringos all over Latin and South America. I thought big badder and heavily armed was enough to stave off retards, engines and moron gringos. But it’s a lie. It does make YOU feel better but once you pop smoke? It’s all irrelevant. So I’m just buying the things I bought living in 3rd world. It’s kinda hopeless. My gringo friends say we are just in a down turn. I thought I’d secure another 35 foot sailboat but then where ya gonna go? The whole island thing runs on gringo money. South America is completely captured just like here now. Liberal lunatics DO NOT TURN BACK. they’ll light the fires and blame you for it. I’m gonna put a add in the paper. Pride and hubris has permeated our culture. Flight 93 / Titanic. We have both mind sets. I did find a meat company in Texas that sells freeze dried rib eyes / tenderloins/ and New York strip. Once it goes then I’ll just start eating good food, praying and playing ole bluegrass. We are it. The mob rule has destroyed our culture as Christians just kept their heads down and stayed silent. Like Germany. So I’ll put the add in and see if there is at least a dozen pipe hitting hillbillies within 20 miles who just don’t give a fk about what liberal lunatics say or do. Talking about zombies! That would be a cake walk compared to what spoiled denying gringos do or act. Post America
Been buying from them since 2015. Tried some mac and cheese from
2016 and was still pretty good. Powdered milk is a winner also.
I would absolutely love to be able to purchase their products but it’s all way to expensive for me. I found it was cheaper for me to buy rice, beans, pasta, flour, etc and store it in mylar bags.
Spot on, MD.
A stash of both canned goods and freeze-dried meals are beneficial.
Thanks for your continued efforts.
Thank you very much. I appreciate you!
Hospice is here at my house. Today they showed up in mask and said cases are spreading and she said they’ll have to wear full mop gear soon if cases keep rising. Florida
Thank you MD. You provide critical advice that will soon be needed by everyone. Thank you for that.
Thanks Mr. Creekmore. I have two glaring holes in my preps that I’m working on. A better solar system and freeze dried foods. We probably only have 3 months of freeze dried foods. I have where I’m at and two fall back places if I’m forced to bug out. After that, it’s just gonna be what it is. Freeze dried foods are a lot easier to grab and go.
Thanks for this.

Private mail inbound, Sir. Thank you for the post.
Hopefully, I see it… I get a lot of email.
Hi M.D. Great read. I have 2 full bins of M.P.S. food and bought extra for my family members. Recently I made a comparison between MPS and Mountain House. First off, MPS is “Not” that good of tasting food! It also takes a lot of water and boiling time to make. Whereas MH uses little water and less boil time. All the family loved the MH and ate very little of the MPS food. I would challenge you to do a real side by side comparison of the foods for us. Because in my experience, this told me everything not to buy!
I’m trying to stock up also with my boots, clothes and etc. I’m having a problem with my boots and tennis shoes lasting. The soles just seem to fall off. Where do u think is the best place or kind of boots u feel would be best? I’m a single female and trying to do everything myself. U r doing great in your video’s. I live to watch u because I trust u unconditionally. Thank u so much.
I try to be as accurate and give as good of advice as possible.
I enjoy your videos, and learn a lot from you advice.
Thank you
