+2, although I think a mix of Shelf Reliance and Wise is a good idea to prevent pantry/food fatigue. Have tried both and certainly are palatable in a time of need.
I really like what Shelf Reliance has done, and it seems like it's well-designed for extended cabin stay type scenarios. I particularly like how they help organize things in terms of pantry management and long-term food care. For 1-2 weeks, I think I am more inclined to set up a mix of MREs and Mountain House/Wise entrees.
Mountain House also makes a thing called the Mountain Oven to heat your food. I've never used one, so can't comment on how well it works, but others have said they work well. It's kind of like the MRE heaters in a way. You get 5 heaters to a pack. Of course if you will be having a campfire, then heat the old fashioned way!
