How to Decode Manufacturing Dates on the below:

Yoders Bacon :

 To figure out the date, we would need to look at the top set of letter and numbers, but it looks like there is a typo there. "A" stands for product bacon, then the date comes in a Julian format. But it looks like the customer provided letter "O" instead of a number. Is it possible that it should have been zero "0"? If so, then the product is from "0348" which would be 348th day of 2010 (Dec 14, 2010). If the customer purchase the product recently, then ask him/her to take a closer look at the number that follows letter "A" and that number will stand for the year. For example "0" - 2010, "2" - 2012, "7" - 2017, etc. 

Mountain House Freeze Dried Food :

The cans/pouches purchased must have the 'Best By' date.

We have fresh Military Surplus stock but very limited Salmon Fillet, Canadian Bacon, Catfish fillet and more | Free Lifestraw with every case order

These Chicken Breasts are current production over-runs, Manufactured in 2018, from a large military defense contractor. We just purchased a large lot of these direct from a Defense Reutilization Office (DRO) Source. Although actual use is always classified on these kinds of bids, our information is that these are purchased for Executive Branch use, not for our troops in the field. That usually means these go to underground bunkers for continuity of government use by strategic military leaders, congressional members and sometimes even the White House staff or leadership!!  

With every order of Military Surplus Case not only you get the best discounts and prices but with every order, you get a Lifestraw free.

This is an environmentally friendly energy source and can be used not just for emergencies when you want to reach out and check on your family and loved ones but even at times of peril when your phone or laptop's battery dies when you are out camping!

Miscellaneous ( The most important ):

We always tend to ignore the smallest thing that comes in handy at perilous times. What would one not give to get a poncho or a raincoat during rains or what would you do to get a blanket when stuck in your car surrounded by storm? Here is a list of miscellaneous things that can go a long way :
