## Questions & Answers

**Q: How do you heat the meals up if they don't come with heaters?**
A: Hello Doug,
The pouches can be heated in boiling water.
Otherwise, they can be treated just like canned food – opened, emptied into a pan
and heated anyway you choose, such as microwave, conventional stove or oven.
Thanks, Long Life Food Depot

**Q: What are the current production dates?**
A: Hello Greg,
We buy the pouches right from the manufacturer, and get the latest lots available.
We usually have to buy several different lots of each item, to get enough to meet demand.
Right now the Beef & Chicken Combo - 18 Pack contains 6 different items.
I'll list the earliest lot for each item below, though each item probably has later dates too:
Beef Strips - July 24, 2020 earliest production date
Chili w/Beans - April 22, 2020 "          "                 "
Beef Stew - March 20, 2020
Southwest Beef - April 17, 2020
Chicken Noodles - May 1, 2020
Chicken Burrito Bowl - April 19, 2020
     thanks, Long Life Food Depot

**Q: Whats is the pull date?**
A: The official shelf life of MREs is 7-10 years when stored at 70 deg. F (according to the Natick Research Labs MRE Shelf Life Chart).
The manufacture date is shown in a Julian date code, which consists of 4 digits together.
The first digit represents the year of the manufacture date.  The next 3 digits represent the day of the 365 day year.
So, for example, the 8056 digits represent the 56th day of 2008).  You can find the Julian Calendar on-line, to interpret the date codes.

**Q: Can you eat these cold or do they need to be heated up?**
A: Hello Jon,  They are fully cooked, so don't have to be heated.  thanks, LLFD
