Carolina Food Storage Giveaway and 2 New Winners!

We are excited to announce this week’s sponsor for our giveaway: Carolina Food Storage! 
Growing up, we always had a store of food in our basement – with about 50 boxes of cereal and loads after load of cased canned goods. Our dad made these rotating shelves, and once a year we would replenish our supply at a huge case lot sale. It was nice to have the food on hand, but one thing we always struggled with is the shelf life of most of the products we would purchase.  In a couple of months, they would be completely spoiled. The other products we would purchase with a long shelf life were disgusting (and we wouldn’t eat them if they were the last food left on Earth). So when we heard about this food storage – we were excited to try it and compare it to the food of our childhood.  
Here’s what we found:  not only does this food have an AMAZING shelf life (25 years!), it also tastes great!   Their THRIVE Premium Freeze Dried Foods are delicious!  They offer all the foods you’d find in a grocery store – grains, veggies, fruits, dairy, meat, and beans, all without the worry of your food going bad. The products are all natural with no preservatives or additives. The process of freeze drying creates shelf stable foods without losing any of the color, taste, or nutrients. Still not sold on it? Look at all they have to offer:
We got to try these Vanilla and Orange Yogurt bites, as well as the Fuji Apples – they were DELISH!

These two packets – Chicken and Celery & Onion made the most delicious chicken salad…
and we couldn’t get enough of it!
Our dad would LOVE on of these Food Rotation Systems
Emergency Kits! Some are even pre-assembled!
They also have food storage tools like “The Q” that help you plan out your meals, your shopping list, and ships your food orders to your home!

    And I would love to try the ten grain pancake mix.. my munchkins are big pancake fans and I always try to keep it on hand. This seems like a healthier version.

    I would definitely add some of their freeze dried meats to my food storage. I find that shelf stable meat is the thing that I have the hardest time with. mollywolf @ gmail dot com

    I would love to try the Passion Fruit Yogurt Bites. A good friend of mine let me try some of her Pomegranate ones a few weeks ago and they were delicious!
    Thanks!

    I visited Caroline Food Storage and we surprised how much stuff they had. I wouldn’t mind having an emergency kit around tornado season. Also would be interested to try the chicken, pineapple, and well most of the fruits.

    This was a great website, so helpful! Thanks for introducing. I really like the idea of the Thrive foods. My husband and I might have to consider their shelving system!

    I have two young boys, 2 and 6 months, and I have been thinking a lot lately about the importance of emergency preparedness. I am wanting to start storing food, so this giveaway came at a great time! I would purchase an assortment of Carolina Food Storage goods since I am just starting out.

    I would love to add a bunch of the meat TVP products to my food storage. I have been looking for ways to cut back on meat and adding TVP is one easy way so I was thrilled to see that THRIVE offers so many options!
