The Gourmet Reserves foods are Preservative-Free!
Some items are also Gluten Free!
Q: What is the big deal about TheEpicenter.com being a "Stocking Distributor"?
A: Other people on the web who sell this product may not have physical stock on hand like we do. They rely on having the product separately drop-shipped to you directly from the manufacturer. This process increases shipping costs and adds delays in getting product to the customer. We don't like that because we typically ship our customer's orders within 24 hours!
Gourmet
Reserves Product in #10 and #2-1/2 can sizes!
Q: What
is the difference between what is called a #10 and a #2-1/2 size can?
A: Shown in this photo is a #10 can on the left, and a #2-1/2 (also called a #2.5 can) on the right.
The large size can, called a #10, is about the size of a 1 gallon paint
can. Its the most widely used size for delivering large amounts of product
to food service users, like restaurants. If you have ever been to a Costco
warehouse and have seen a massively huge can of Tomatoes, that is a #10
can. The smaller can in the photo is basically 1/4 the size of the #10
can. The industry calls it a #2-1/2 can size. It is larger than most cans
you find at your local super market.

| Q:
What is the shelf life of Gourmet Reserves preparedness foods?
A: It is impossible to give a definitive answer without knowing how the foods are stored and in what containers. Extended shelf life is primarily affected by oxygen, fat, moisture, heat and time - the lower the values the better. Excessive quantities of these elements will cause loss of nutritional value, off flavors, odors, and rancidity. Handling and physical damage must also be kept to a minimum. Damage to can seams and excessive rust must be avoided. Gourmet Reserves products are sealed in heavy gauge metal cans with an oxygen absorber added. Be sure to observe storage tips for best results. Provided that proper storage procedures have been followed, we can offer general guidelines as to the shelf life expectations of Gourmet Reserves foods. Once the foods leave our warehouse we have no control over storage conditions. So please be conscientious and avoid high heat - the cooler the better (without freezing). Proper Food Storage Tips It is crucial that you store food reserves properly. Please follow the following recommendations:
|
NOTE: Although it is possible that some beans, grains,
and other types of food will store for long periods of time in ideal conditions,
we feel it is inappropriate to promise or suggest shelf lives of any longer
than 15 years. AlpineAire Foods does its best, utilizing the latest canning
techniques and oxygen absorber technology, to ensure the longest possible
shelf life. Because of the various factors which affect shelf life, over
which we have no control, we cannot guarantee that your results will match
our estimates. In order to maximize shelf life, do not expose to high or
freezing temperatures for an extended period of time.

Mountain
Oven: Flameless Heating Kit for Mountain House PouchesThis kit works like the MRE heaters we have sold for many years, but this is specially - designed to heat Mountain House freeze dried foods that are packaged in pouches!
Take this kit, use it 5 times using the items provided to heat your meals, but don't throw it away when all your heating pads are used up. Just order our "new style" MRE heaters in 12 packs, follow the instructions on the heaters, and when activated, put them inside the oven and heat your Mountain house products just like your first time using your original kit contents! I know they don't want us to tell you about that, but we also sell MRE heaters, and they will do the same job, so there is no need to keep buying these kits when you only need replacement MRE style heating pads, right?
So, order your kit here, and as an option you can order replacement MRE style pads. Be aware, the replacement pads will have instructions on them that discuss use for heating MRE's. Ignore that, just follow the instructions for filling water to the right level, and put the activated pad (complete with outer bag) inside the Mountain Oven and put your meal inside the oven. There will not be instructions for how to use the replacement MRE style pads with your kit, but you will get how the process works the first time you use the oven.
