Received my 30 day order yesterday

By Ron , Shawnee, KS

I received my order in less than a week. I bought the 30 day box. I really like the storage box it came in, is sturdy and not very noticeable stored in the basement. Just received it in the last few days and haven't eaten any yet but its all in pouches and they are intact.

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Grandma's Potato soup

By Carolyn S. Akins , Bedford, NH

Had bought a box of your food quite some time ago, never tried anything till just this week and it was a two cup sample package which I cooked (did add 1 teaspoon chick bouillon) and was greatly pleased with texture as well as flavor.

NO problems ever

By Robert Babb, Florida, Verified Reviewer

I have been purchasing products from this company, Food 4 Patriots, for approximately two years and have been completely satisfied with their product and customer service. During all this time I have never had to contact their office about any concerns.

Their food groups are very tasty and well prepared and preserved.

From my personal experience, I would not hesitate to recommend this product to anyone looking for the services they provide.

Not what was ordered, no customer service.

By Gary H., Levittown, PA, Verified Reviewer

I am disappointed with my experience. I ordered the 72-hour food kit in order to try a few meals before I purchase a larger food kit. My order confirmation had 3 items, 2 of which I was looking forward to trying. My order conformation gave me the recipe of an item which was in my pack and ways to spice it up. When I finally received my kit, all 3 items in it WERE NOT the items on my order or confirmation.

I did get a lot of macaroni and cheese. When I emailed customer service they never got back to me and now 8 days later I have sent a few emails with NO RESPONSE. Good luck if you chose this company!

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Hi Gary,

Thank you for your feedback regarding your purchase. Prior to 2019, the kit you purchased did include different items, however, the three meals included with the kit you received were correct. These three meals are also shown prior to purchase. We issued a refund for $14.95 due to confusion on 4/29/2019 to your original payment method.

Best,

Sarah

Food 4 Patriots

By Morris , Boise, ID

We ordered the three months supply of food that is said to last 25 years. It was shipped and received as promised within the same month. Tasted some of the product, it's better than MRE's or Sea Rats which I ate in the service. I'm very happy with their service.

Tasty food, but...

By Donna Hing, California, Verified Reviewer

I bought the three-month supply. I think that their food is pretty tasty, but it has a load of sodium in it. If you make soup, for instance, it has 700 mg of sodium for only a third of a cup. Doctors tell us to not have more than 2000mg a day of sodium (and less for people with high blood pressure).

Calorie count of meals

By Sheri K., Portland, OR, Verified Reviewer

I purchased a 3-month food supply. When the package arrived I counted the number of servings in the totes. There are 536 servings, but the servings are listed as 8 per pouch. For instance, the recommended serving for soup is 1/4 cup and provides 160 calories. If 2 servings are consumed from each packet there are 2.9 months of food, not 3 as advertised. That includes counting dried milk as a meal serving. If a person sticks to a single serving then their caloric deficit each day will place them in starvation mode. The serving portions are misleading. For 490 dollars I could have probably put together a much better meal plan. Before purchasing this check other vendors for a better value. The cost per serving averages $1.09. Pretty high for a 1/4 cup of potato soup or powdered milk.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

who will be the idiot when you will need the emergency food

Got mostly breakfasts

By Steve Z., Gastonia, NC, Verified Reviewer

I have ordered several times from this company and have received what was advertised. After the pandemic hit, they were out of stock, but I was on the notification list, and was notified that the four-week food kits were back in stock and ready to be shipped. My wife and I decided we would order a kit for our youngest son and his family and for our daughter's family. The kits were delivered promptly, and there the nightmare begins. In my shipment most of the items were substitutions. I did not get the creamy potato soup, loaded baked potato soup, chili mac, the berry cream of wheat, nor the energy drink; in short, two-thirds of what was advertised consisted of substitutions "of equal value".

When I opened the storage container, it smelled of oatmeal. I checked each package to see if a pouch had burst. Nope. Just a lot of oatmeal substitutions. The "equal value" substitutions included pancake mix, banana chips, powdered whey milk, a couple of pouches of creamy chicken soup, and a pouch of broccoli casserole. And missing were the $80.00 in free gifts. Rather expensive breakfast and snack items for $197.00. I contacted my children, and that was pretty much the same story: mostly items NOT advertised in the kits, and none of the free gifts. Oh, I was also supposed to get $25 off an order over $100.00. That didn't happen either. $591.00 down the drain. I wrote to customer service on the 21st of April 2020, and have yet to receive a reply. I am totally disappointed in a company that has received such great reviews. I will probably divide up my kit and send it to my kids.

It is what it is

By Charlie S. , Arizona Desert

This stuff is called God forbid, something happens to require me to use this food, I probably wont be as concerned with flavor as I will be with having a full stomach. Sure, taste is important but surviving the emergency is the big goal.

As far as price and convenience, this company supplies what it claims and is entertaining. You can find better prices and quality if you check the reviews so buy where you believe. I would recommend this product to a friend but I would advise shopping around too.

Plenty of food

By Vicki Kirschner , Texas

I ordered a 3 month supply on a trial basis and received a 6 month supply accidentally. I called customer service and they were very nice. I could return it if I took it to the nearest Federal Express Office to "refuse shipment" on it.

This is somewhat inconvenient. Anyway, we decided to keep it due to so many situations in which we might need it. (Family of 5.) I'd recommend it, but as other reviewers have mentioned, they order from one company. I'd check out ordering from them.

Thanks to the reviewers who posted that they tried the food. That was very helpful.

Patriot Pantry Food is Top Notch

Unproven

By Don, Jackson, MI, Verified Reviewer

The wife and I ordered 5 units of the three month food supply, and they were delivered as expected. On opening one of the tubs filled with mylar packages of various food items, I immediately noticed the smell of an open package of noodle soup mix. How did the smell of foodstuffs get past the mylar?

I have concerns about longevity now. However, the products were all fairly tasty, but not for the soy intolerant people. They get their stuff from another company in the same business; I checked and found the prices identical s/o this looks like a decent deal.

Food kits

By Chris Blevins, Spiro, OK, Verified Reviewer

I could not be happier with this product. I originally purchased it for storage. I also purchased these 72-hour kits for my hunting trips, so easy to pack in, takes up so little space.

The grand kids love them too. When we go to the cabin and they always make sure that they grab one of the 72-hour kits.

The meat & protein, coffee kits are great.

Still waiting - buyer beware!

By Walt Secondine, Owasso, OK, Verified Reviewer

My order is not as late as some of the people posting. I saw one that goes back to October 2017. I ordered the first of the year and get emails stating they aren't sending my order yet. Just because some folks rate a 5 is uplifting, but still doesn't mean that this isn't a scam.

Maybe those of us who are not getting our orders need to get together and get some legal entities involved. Please post and I will get this going. I have asked in several emails if I could get a ballpark date and they won't respond to any of my emails.

Hi Walter,

Our records reflect that the three orders mentioned were purchased on 1/12/2018. We spoke to you on 1/18/2018 for order status and to change the shipping address per your request. We advised of the delay and that some of the items were on backorder but would be shipping soon. On average we strive to ship orders within 10 business days but were behind due to holidays. We then received another order from you on 2/22/2018 which also shipped and reflects delivered.

If you did not receive any of these items, please contact us at 800-304-4202.

Best,

Sarah

Good stuff

By Chris Nahm , Lahaina, Hawaii

When I was ordering the 4-week supply they offered an add-on for another at half price. They arrived in a timely manner and are as advertised. Strong, easily stored tubs. You can call these people and reach them on the phone if you have any questions about shipping, etc. I'm very satisfied.

Whether or not the government letter in the ad is real, one needs only to investigate the mysterious collapse of World Trade Center Building No. 7 to realize there is a real need for survival food like this. There's a bad moon on the rise.

Food 4 Patriots

By Kevin, Decatur, Illinois, Verified Reviewer

I have ordered numerous products from Food 4 Patriots. These include 72-hour food supplies, three-month food supplies, the vegetable and fruit combo, the Alexa Pro air and water purifier, etc.

Every product I have received from Food 4 Patriots has far exceeded my expectations. The food tastes great, and all of the other products have performed exactly as stated. I am thankful that I have had the opportunity to add these items to my long-term supplies with an occasional meal here and there to enjoy the quality of the food.

Terrible rip off, charged $500 for 10 orders

By Robert Y, Maryland, Verified Reviewer

After the funny ordering screen scared me, I was smart enough to check my bank as soon as I ordered.

After you add your credit card number in, it gives you like five pages of deals for 100's of dollars, and then when you click "no thanks" six times, the order is placed, then one minute later my bank said it was a $500 purchase.

I called, and they did refund it right away, but even as furious as I was, he kept trying to scare me into buying food by saying "don't let a mistake cost you your life." Don't order the 72-hour package.

Hi Robert,

We are really sorry to hear this happened. This is not the usual experience of our customers. I am glad our customer service department took care of this by refunding your money immediately! If you'd like, please email me at amanda.carden@4patriots.com with your information so I can investigate what may have happened. We do offer upsells after the 72 hour kit is ordered but the customer must click to agree to those upsells for the larger purchases to be placed. I'd love to make this right for you!

Excellent product

By Betty Jo Harding, Virginia, Verified Reviewer

Having ordered various special combo-packs as well as several three-month food kits, we've sampled most everything that has been offered. Preparation is easy, and the food is quite tasty. Though most of our stock is being held in reserve for times of disaster, our stock comes in handy when life gets really hectic, there's been no time to make a grocery run, and we need to fill in with something hearty and flavorful until we can get to the store. We do have to be cautious about not adding too much salt, but even the sodium levels are lower than comparable products offered by other companies.

As advertised

By Marc Honaker, Charlotte, NC, Verified Reviewer

I noticed the Food 4 Patriots ad on Facebook. I typically stock enough freeze-dried meals to ensure that my wife and I can eat for a couple of weeks if the lights go out.

Although the ad was based on doom and gloom marketing, I appreciate the need to prepare so that we're not behind the 8-ball in a natural disaster. I took advantage of one of the smaller offers plus the free 72-hour kits. I was a bit skeptical about my decision, but the items hit my front porch in less than a week.

I haven't opened any of the meals yet, but the ingredients look quality, and the amount seems sufficient. I'm going to plug in a five because they have delivered as advertised.

This will be my fourth time ordering. I actually tried the potato soup and it tasted fine. The fact that it has a high salt content does not bother me because if I am eating this food, I have a bigger problem than salt content!

Not happy

By Robin S., Scottsdale, AZ, Verified Reviewer

I just received my free 72-hour kit, which I did pay $15 for shipping, etc. Not happy. Eight servings of oatmeal at 1/2 cup per serving and 210 calories. Four servings of potato soup at 1/4 cup per serving and 160 calories. And four servings Chicken a la King at 1/2 cup per serving and 260 calories. Mostly you are eating oatmeal and very little of anything else. I was hoping that the 72-hour kit would be a better representation of their products. I am going to look for another company.

I ordered the food and my shipping and billing address was switched. I called and the lady said she would switch it. Almost two months later I still haven't received anything or gotten an email about the status of my order. I called customer service to inquire about my purchase and was on hold for over twenty minutes, I finally hung up and did not talk to anyone.

Pleasantly surprised

By Gwen Burkhardt, Louisiana, Verified Reviewer

I loved the containers they were packed in. I only tasted the potato soup but if everything is as good as that soup, brother, it will be worth every penny. My kids and husband tried it and I didn't tell them it was the food I ordered and they said this stuff is really good. I said well if things get bad at least you will eat good. Had a pleasant experience dealing with this company. Wish I could have bought more. And just recently they sent me a 100 dollar coupon to put towards another order. Think I may use it.
