After waiting for over 5 months at Walton Feed with no firm delivery date in sight I decided to go with Emergancy Food Storage, a Perma Pak distributor. They were about 20% higher in price but they got there food out in less than three weeks, and the quality is uncomparable. Yes, we did a taste test comparison!!! There site is at www.northlink.com/~gwiatt/

Walton's right now is taking 5-6 weeks on UPS delivery. Truck freight is much longer.

We recently waited about 10 weeks for Walton in the Pacific Northwest. Not great, but still, it's comfortably far from being up against the hard Y2K deadlines.

All you people who are preparing for Y2K and buying a one year supply of dehydrated food. You are preparing in case everthing shuts down. How in the heck are you going to reconstitute your dehydrated food without water? You better get some 55 gallon drums and put them under your rain gutters!

If you order Walton's foods through one of their distributor's the price is the same and the wait is much shorter. Our customers are receiving shipements in about three to four weeks.

After searching the possibilities, I found a company that ships within 2-3 weeks, uses cool drying to preserve nutrients, and helps everyone start stocking up using a refer 3 and your food is free non-MLM distibution method. Go to http://home.sprintmail.com/~weknapp. Write if any questions.
