I was so excited to get my 4-week supply but after opening, I can’t help but wonder if there is a 2nd shipment coming. I thought maybe I got a partial shipment. I started counting and even if I were to spread out the meals and ate one package per day (at just under 1000 cal per package) I’d make it for 2 weeks. Maybe survival but definitely not thriving. Some of those meals would simply be one of the 4 packs of white rice. No vegetables or soup...just rice. After reading all of the bragging about the tasty meals, that is pretty disappointing. I sure hope the 2 packs of broccoli bake are good. I just don’t think this deal is much of a deal. Also, plan to be barraged with hokey emails trying to talk you into tripling down on your investment. Which is what you will have to do to actually get enough caloric intake for 4 weeks of survival. Nice tote though! But you can’t eat it. I’ll fill the other half of it (because the food they send doesn’t fill half of it) with other companies' products.
Pros and Cons:
Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Hi Shawn,
I am so sorry to hear that you're not satisfied with your purchase. Our 4 Week Kits include 184 servings and 36,000 total calories, giving you 1,200 calories per day for 4 weeks. Each pouch of food has multiple servings. Our 4 Week Kit allows for 6 servings per day. You can prepare a full pouch of food and store the remaining in the fridge or prepare only one serving from a pouch of food at a time.
These kits are designed to provide energy and nutrients for one person in stressful emergency situations. They are not intended to be complete caloric replacements during “normal” times. An average adult needs approximately 2,000 calories per day to meet their energy needs. This may not be enough for optimal nutrition, especially for an extended period of time such as 3 months. In order to supplement your daily calorie intake, to add variety, or to provide food for more than one person, we offer a number of supplemental products, including food bars, meat packs, fruit and vegetable packs, etc. By combining our kits with these additional products, you can ensure that you have 2,000 calories per day available to you during emergency situations.
If you find that you do not have 184 servings in your kit, please send an email to reviews@4patriots.com with ATTN: Kerri in the subject line and I'll be happy to get any missing items shipped to you.
You are also backed by a 1-year money-back guarantee. If you choose to return your order, simply ship that back to us and we'll refund the purchase price in full.
Best,
Kerri
