We often get questions about the manufacture dates printed on our #10 cans and MREs.

Expiration Dates
Many times, people will ask us “Why don’t you just put an expiration date on the can?” The reason is that the expiration date depends on your storage environment. Ideally,you would store the food in an environment with temperatures between 60-75 °F.

Manufacture Dates
The Ready Store is in the process of changing the way we label our cans. While we previously listed a Julian Calendar date, we will now be labeling our #10 cans with easy-to-read dates!

MREs, which are manufactured by the same companies that provides MREs to the military, will continue to use the Julian Calendar system and we have no ability to influence a change. You can learn more about decoding the MRE manufacture dates here.
