Augason Farms emergency food, by the numbers
Augason Farms sold 2 one-person emergency kits we could compare on the numbers that matter. Here is what they delivered per person, per day - and how Augason Farms stacks up against the field. Every figure is from Augason Farms' own pages as captured on 16 September 2026.
No longer sold direct. Augason Farms no longer sells these one-person kits on its own store: their product pages now redirect to the homepage, and the store's Emergency Kits category lists a single Grab-and-Go backpack (6 cook-in-pouch meals plus survival gear). The figures below are the kits as Augason Farms sold them on 16 September 2026. (Checked October 27, 2026.)
Every Augason Farms kit we measured landed below a full 2,000-calorie day - as low as 1,236 kcal, about 59% of the 2,100 kcal humanitarian minimum. On value it was among the cheaper options, from about $4.53 per 1,000 kcal. Stated shelf life ran up to 30 years - real, but conditional on cool, dry storage.
