Shortage of Freeze Dried Food??? I ordered about 30 #10 cans from Nitro-pak on 31 July. Got an email last week that the order had been shipped. I received it Monday of this week. The supply of Mountain House can't be back ordered too much for all of the stuff I ordered. Was this "shortage" contrived or just short lived?

Re: Shortage of Freeze Dried Food??? My understanding is Mtn House is sold out for the rest of this year in #10 cans. What is available is what is in dealer's stock and that's it.

Re: Shortage of Freeze Dried Food??? MH shifts the production line from cans to pouches in the summer every year. The demand was so strong this year that they extended the #10 can run by an extra month or so. This was their normal cycle.

How can some people wait 4-6 weeks for #10 cans when I ordered 60 cans and it was shipped in 12 days from the day I ordered??????????

+1...Nitro-Pak order (all #10 cans FD) took about 2 weeks...and they apologized for the delay.

Re: Shortage of Freeze Dried Food??? Just got an email from Honeyville Grains. Through August 26 they're offering a 10% discount on all their freeze-dried fruits and veggies in #10 cans. I opened a can of strawberries and they were excellent. I think that they reconstitute a little flabby when soaked in water; but they're delicious straight out of the can and are great tossed into a bowl of corn flakes. http://store.honeyvillegrain.com Remember to type in LABOR as your discount code when checking out. This discount will end on Tuesday August 26, 2008 at 6:00PM PST. The discount doesn't apply to shipping; but that is only $4.99 regardless of the size of your order they say.
