Not just for an emergency?

You get this for an emergency, not in one. So taking a couple of days before despatch and a few more to deliver shouldn't be unexpected. It comes in hefty plastic ( Vermin resistant) stackable tubs which are stuffed with sachets of the various recipes. Each sachet apparently serves 4. And in the case of my order, some was already 4 years old.....production date of 2022, so a good job it lasts a long time!!
Preparation instructions are not on individual packs but are on the website. If you take the average price for a main meal to be less than £3.00 the value is amazing, and although we haven't tried them all, they seem pretty good. (though my other half thought the breakfasts a bit too sweet.)

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Outstanding Customer Service

Buying emergency food supplies from ReadyWise UK was a big decision for me. Since these products are a real investment, I spent a lot of time researching before I ordered. I wanted to make sure I could trust the company.

My order arrived quickly, which made a great first impression. I did have a small issue with my order, but what happened next really impressed me.

The ReadyWise team went out of their way to fix the problem. They replied to my email quickly and took care of everything with real care and professionalism. Their customer service was outstanding.

These days, customer support often feels like an afterthought, but ReadyWise showed me why it still matters.

Any doubts I had about spending so much money were eased by their excellent customer service.

With all the economic uncertainty and unpredictable events these days, having a reliable emergency food supply for your family just makes sense.

I highly recommend them and will definitely buy again.

Great service but soup not a meal

Great service, arrived quickly and with no fuss.

Cooked the meal meticulously as per instructions and it resulted in a soup, not the expected chunky stew.

Very little flavour, and the solid elements were chewy.

I would say it felt more like a cup-a-soup than a meal… and looking at the nutritional side it didn’t seem be a million miles away there too…

REPLY TO REPLY
I don’t think it was intended to be a soup, it was a the “potatoes and chicken flavour pot pie”, indicating 4 cups of water for the sachet.

Please note that some or our recipies are soups and that we recommed 1 cup (200ml) per serving. Which recipie did you prepare?

Thanks for the update, we take customer feedback serious and I will forward it to our R&D team. Thanks again.

Have a great day.

I've started a cuople of the fruits snd it's really nice and delicious. I'm going to order more food from them. It's a very good company and the food is really delicious.

This was the first visit to the Readywise website. Interesting site with a lot of useful information and a good range ‘just in case’ food. I’m still deciding which of the food to try but I have been told that it tastes good by a friend and should store well.

Didn't taste very nice

The delivery was quick however didn't really like the taste. Had the chilli macaroni. In fact it made me quite nauseous. I also thought it was quite expensive even though I understand your also paying for the shelf life. Going to continue to buy MREs for camping and storing
UPDATE. After leaving this review Readywise kindly refunded my money without me asking for it. Excellent Customer Service

Thanks for choosing ReadyWise - the leader in emergency food, and thanks for your feedback.

I can see that you purchased a sample from our popular lunch & dinner bucket.

We only have good reviews on all our recipes, and I am sorry to hear that our chilli marcaroni did not comply with your tastebuds.
