Bridgford Food makes shelf stable sandwiches in a variety of flavors. Does anyone have any experience with them? How are they? and do they bridge the gap in the survival diet?
EX:
Bridgford’s Shelf-Stable Ready-To-Eat Sandwich Line was originally developed for the United States Military as combat feeding rations for the “Troops On-The-Go”. The military required a product that had a three-year shelf-life, and would taste as great on day 1,095 as it did on day 1. The sandwiches were originally tested with the United States Marines during an operation in Fallujah, and they scored exceptionally well, receiving one of the highest acceptance scores ever for a new product. Currently, the product is incorporated into the “First Strike Ration” which is provided to our military’s Special Operations Forces when they carry out missions in a “Hot Zone”. Shelf-Stable Ready-To-Eat Sandwiches that contain meat are produced under USDA inspection, and are also inspected by AMS, FDA, NCDA, VETCOM, and other agencies. All meat and poultry used in producing the sandwiches is USDA inspected. The sandwiches are heated to a minimum internal temperature of 190 degrees F, and are manufactured under the auspices of a HACCP program.
Bridgford Ready-To-Eat Sandwiches weigh from 2.5 to 3.5 ounces, depending on the sandwich variety. No refrigeration is required, and the product has a three-year shelf-life from the date of manufacture if maintained at 80 degrees F or less. The Sandwiches can actually be stored at 100 degrees F for up to six months. The product’s shelf-life is achieved through a combination of packaging and formulation. Ready-To-Eat Sandwiches are a great food solution for the outdoor enthusiast, and are perfect for backpacking, camping, hiking, boating, fishing, etc. They are also a great addition to household emergency kits, as well as for disaster preparedness or disaster relief efforts.
We currently offer eleven Ready-To-Eat Sandwich varieties, five of which (BBQ Beef, BBQ Chicken, Italian Style, Pepperoni Stick, and Bacon in Cheese Flavored Bread) are offered in either a 48-count loose pack case or a 12-4 count case.. The Cinnamon Bun, Filled French Toast, Apple Turnover, Sweet & Sour Soy, Whole Wheat Flat Bread and White Flat Bread are available in 48-count loose pack cases only. On average, the sandwiches provide 300 calories and 10 to 12 grams of protein per serving.
