Do we eat them out of the pack? Or mix with water?

These are basically super high concentration energy bars. Loads of calories, protein, vitamins and minerals in a very small package. You could carry enough food to keep you alive for a week in one hand. That's why I like these. Not because they are tasty (that's a matter of opinion) but I could carry a month's worth of food in a briefcase. That's light and compact enough for anyone's emergency needs. PS, no water needed.

Eat them out of the pack. When I received mine, one of the packages had lost its vacuum seal, so I gave it to my younger brother who is still in college. He ate the bars as snacks for a week or so, so they aren't too bad tasting depending on your standards.

They are like an energy bar. No water is required to mix with them. Although, having water to drink with them is handy.

Right out of the pack. Not the most paletable, but Will work in an emergency as designed.

These are basically massive, dense, shortbread cookies, packed with extra vitamins and minerals. They have a slightly tart and sweet flavor. They are a bit crumbly, again, like a cookie.

Yes, you should definitely give them a quick rinse. They'd probably be too salty otherwise. I transferred mine to a air-tight container and keep them in the fridge, but I'm not sure that that's totally necessary.

I would take them with at least SOME food, even if a small amount. I only took them with food, it may make you sick to take them on an empty stomach.

Nope. I take each pack out of the plastic bag and put in a Tupperware and add water. I use them as baby wipes.

Matthew, I'm no expert. All I know is that when the packs are dry, feeling like crunchy dry sand when squeezed and pressed and I put them in an air-tight Tupperware box with water in a small container in the box, within a few days they are soft and pliable - having soaked up the humidity/moisture in the enclosed container. Seems you'll have to try a pack and hope they fill your needs. Letting them dry out may be your biggest challenge....watching VERY CAREFULLY in an oven? VERY iffy! Maybe laying in the sun - with frequent checks. Just a thought.

- store them in the fridge in their plastic bag. Depending on the recipe instructions you might soak them in warm/hot water for 10/15 minutes or chop them up "as is " from their package, how you use them is determined by your recipe instructions......hope this helps. Bert

I wouldn't put them in full sun but in a little shadier spot, otherwise it would get too hot. Be prepared for a lot of them from one case, and they're hungry right away, so put them out as soon as possible or they eat one another. Good luck.

Is not tasty unfortunately...need to mix with something or use plenty of water

I crumble it a little, and combine with water. The package says you can add water or not, but I think it's healthier with water.

I put a scoop of the little pills onto a spoon and swallow down with water. Don't mix it, because you don't want to accidentally chew them.

I don't know if this is recommended or not, but since they are capsules, maybe break them apart and put them in water and chug.

I would not eat them, not because of loss of liquid, but because of the possibility of bacterial invasion. I would ask Amazon (if this is where you bought them) to replace them. It is only reasonable that they put them in your hands after you purchase them in a safe condition.

We soaked them in water and put into the freezer. Once frozen, you can use them.

the best is to grind them so they digest better then put them in a bowl and put water over them and drink up. I haven't noticed any problems from doing this and as said, they digest better and you get more nutrients this way.

Open it to eat it. If you can't handle that, eat as soon as possible. If it smells bad, toss it.

I generally just mix it with purified water. You could mix it with skim milk if you wanted to as well.
