The Sawyer .02 can filter thousands of gallons of water. I bought 2.

Worst case, I can just rough filter and boil water.

The Mountain House pouches and #10 cans I am buying have an expiration date of 2035-2037.

We kinda treat them like frozen dinners.

Through a ton of research, I only buy from http://www.beprepared.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;. They have the best prices, cheap shipping and monthly specials.

Clean water is key. I have heard both good and bad about Berkey systems. I chose to go with a Sawyer .02 micron set up.

I dont think I can post other forums on here so PM if you want more info on a really good site.

The price was reasonable I think, but honestly have not really done comparison shopping. They will ship the pallet to the destination of your choice.

Wise Foods guarantees a 25 year shelf life. Is Costco's that long?
