hunting food

[bearheart]

Does anyone know of a source (Canadian) for MRE type meals for hunting use and stocking hunting cabin? Thanks!

Hey Bearheart,

I have used Mountain House food but it's expensive. Like nearly $15 each but we got them in Fort St. John at backcountry.

I have done plenty of searching on eBay and there is plenty of sellers selling case lots of MRE's and other freeze dried meals the problem is getting it to Canada.

When you do find a good source please let us know. As I would like to bulk order some as well.

Happy Hunting!
Carl

I buy all my freze-dried meals at Coast Mountain Sports. The stuff they sell is Backpackers Pantry, and is about $11.00 per bag, each bag serves 2.

To clarify. I am looking for bulk/case lots not individual meals. :smile:

what 3k4 said and see if you can find a serviceman, you will also find out what to avoid!

I had a student in the reserves that would bring me some from time to time. There are also those self heater meals, not sure if you looked into them or not..

Very best,

You should look into special ordering from Mountain Equipment Co-op. ( www.mec.ca (http://www.mec.ca)) They are usually very good at accomodating large special orders. you will likely need to contact them over the phone.

I have been a member of Mountain Equipment co-op for about 30 years now.I try to avoid spending any significant money there now for several years as they are extremely anti-hunting. When I have some time I'll post some info on specifics, if you google them and grizzly hunting you should find out what I mean.:frown: , the frown is at them of course , not you my fellow hunter:wink:

Guys, we have to be optomists for chripes sake, all we need to take are onions for the liver and salt and pepper for the steaks.:p
