Before we did that, a few of us tried out how they tasted. The water was disgusting; it tasted like you would expect it to considering it was more than 5 years old. There were mixed reviews about the rations. Mixed in the sense that everyone except me thought they were repulsive.
I thought they tasted like lemony goodness. They obviously weren't great, but very edible. I didn't keep the water (other than a few packets to make other people try it), but I kept all 72,000 calories worth of emergency rations. They recommend 1,200 calories a day, so I could be safe for 60 days. If something were to happen before they replenish the supplies, I would get to play god, since I would have all of the food supplies.
My goal is to eat nothing but emergency rations for one (business) week. Starting at 12:01am Monday, and up until 12:01am Saturday, I will eat nothing else. This will also exclude non-water drinks, so no juice either. I will post a daily log here, and you will get to see/read about this painful experience.

Wish me luck...
A week with no food...
Well, not real food anyway
We'll see how this goes
Godspeed.
