If you're one of the thousands bracing for weather on the Gulf Coast and elsewhere, hauling in a pail of emergency food might not be the worst idea. Augason Farms specializes in shelf-stable emergency meals and the brand's 4-gallon variety pack with more than 100 servings of breakfast, lunch and dinner is currently on sale for just $60 on Amazon, down 38% from the normal cost.
The emergency pack contains food that won't require heating to eat, should you lose power for an extended period. Entrees include mac and cheese, creamy chicken and rice, vegetable soup, milk and pudding. While we can't comment on the quality, we imagine it's as tasty as you'd imagine an emergency supply of food to be.
The pail of meals is available for Prime's next-day shipping so it could conceivably arrive before the storm hits, although affected areas of Florida may have compromised delivery routes. If you're concerned about what the next days and weeks have in store or want to keep an emergency supply of food on hand for future events, you can secure this pail while it's marked down for Prime Day.
