Buttermilk Pancake and Waffle Mix Can Emergency Food Supply, 33 Servings, 10 Year Shelf Life - Waffle and Pancake Mix Just Add Water, Instant Breakfast Food

Augason Farms specializes in emergency meal kits with an extra-long storage life in mind. That is how I learned of this item. I was taste and prep testing numerous emergency meals from different companies, and found Augason Farms was nearly always at the top in all aspects. One of the test items was a package of their pancake mix, and I was blown away. Initially unimpressed with receiving pancake mix as an emergency meal kit, I reluctantly gave it a try. I made pancakes and they were probably the best that I've ever made using a pre-made mix. I've tried everything from King Arthur, Hungry Jack, Aunt Jemima (will always be Aunt Jemima to me, even if they now go by Pearl...something), Pioneer, Krusteaz...you get the point. None hold a candle to the quality of what I sampled that day from, of all things, an emergency meal kit! I had to go on a quest and find if it could be purchased as a stand-alone item, and I was in luck...this item you are looking at!While pancakes are easy to make, even from scratch. There is just something special about the results you'll receive using this mix. Every time, it's absolute perfection. I'd like to cough that up to my cooking skills, but anyone that knows me would quickly call out that lie. Though, I guarantee that these were just dang good! Of course, they also mention waffles in their item name, and I had to pull out the waffle iron to try that.I had long ago tried making homemade waffles and was left unimpressed by everything I tried. Different mixes, different irons...you name it, I tried it; and subsequently settled on Eggos. I got rid of every iron but the Ninja brand one I felt was the easiest to use, and I threw that one into the back of the cabinet and thought it may never again see the light of day. However, having great results with pancakes, I had to spend 30 minutes digging that iron out of the back of the cabinet, and WooHoo!!!, was I glad that I did. Those first waffles came out as absolute perfection. I don't measure, so I simply put a cup of mix into a measuring cup, added water to the consistency that I prefer (a bit on the thin side), and added vegetable oil. After a quick stir, I simply poured into the pre-heated vertical Ninja waffle iron and let it do its thing. Using a doneness setting of 3, and letting the waffle cook for an extra 30-45 seconds, the first waffle came out perfectly done. Golden and crispy on the outside, and fluffy and tender on the inside--it's how I had always previously tried to achieve. And the taste matched the look. The waffles this mix produced were perfect.If you're wondering, the Ninja waffle iron now sits at the front of the cabinet with this mix always ready in the pantry to make a quick waffle. Seriously, this is the good stuff.

I buy Augason products when they are on sale. Been doing this on and off for a few years now. Always been a bit of a "prepper", since I was a toddler it seems, haha (In my 40s now). I has served me well through power outages, sicknesses, unemployment, and even bigger stuff like the pandemic, and now... *vaguely gestures around* everything else that is going on. I've never been one to be without when anything has come up. I never did "emergency food" if only because I didnt have the budget. I would stick with typical foods and try to store them well. Well now I have a little more wiggle room in my budget, and with the on and off sales of long term storage (20+ years), I take advantage when I can. I remember buying some Augason eggs back in 2019 for $19. Today? $33-56 for same container, depending on the day.And so, I haven't opened this 3lbs 4 ounces can of pancake mix.. sorry. I dont intend to any time soon. I have quite a bit of bagged stuff to get through first, and I will likely continue to top off from stuff I get to store, then simply know I have this as back up to the back up. We dont eat a lot of pancakes, but the mixes are super versatile (can make sweet or savory, thin or thick, etc). But I wanted to shore up my options. Having some soups and such just adds flavor to other options used. I can add more veg, or a protein, or beans, or simply have some bread to dip into it. Or I can use as way to flavor something. I have a slew of reviews to write on various Augason products, and so they will all be pretty much the same: Super long term storage (25+ years), no matter what the weight, it will be stuffed into a #10 can (that reads, "number ten", not ten pound. I see that mistake in reviews). They keep sizes uniform. Next size up is a round bucket, next size up gets into the rectangular buckets. This is for storage that can be uniform, etc. So yes, you may buy a 7 ounce item that is volume wise that takes up a smidge of space, but it will be packed into a large #10 container. Just remember, all food products are sold based on weight, not volume anyway. All of my containers have been in perfect condition. Maybe one day soon I will try one container out and see how the product actually is.Everyone's SHTF scenario varies. It could be bad weather (tornadoes, hurricanes, blizzards, ice storms), could be illness, could be road trip gone wrong (you do keep supplies in your car too, right?!), could be unemployment, or power outage, or lack of transportation, or oven/fridge/other appliance break down, or bigger stuff like plagues, food shortages, supply chain issues, *cough WW3 cough*, etc. No matter the situation we all need some things to get by: we need is food, water, shelter, some hygeine and medical stuff, and so on. You dont have to stack "emergency supplies" but you do need to stack shelf stable food items. Buy a few extra things every single time you go to the store. If you get to a spot that you feel comfortable and have the budget, then grab the "emergency" items like Augason offers. I like adding it in and just forgetting about it.I give 5 stars because the cans always are in perfect condition, they have regular sales, are good about shipping items as soon as they can, have lots of items to choose from, and so far seem to be of good quality.

This was the first Augasson product that I actually cooked up and ate. It was so easy to throw together and tasted so good that I had pancakes for breakfast 4 mornings in a row … pancakes spritzed with I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter and low sugar maple syrup. Very tasty and satisfying.The one thing I’ll have to watch in future is measuring out the mix. The first time I made pancakes, I dipped the measuring cup into the bag and scooped up the dry batter, not realizing that the mix was compacting in the cup. That resulted in very thick batter, very thick pancakes, and only two tiny cakes. You’ll never get the 10 promised servings if you measure like that. So, I went back to Flour Measuring 101: scoop the mix out of the bag with a spoon and loosely overfill the measuring cup; then level it off with a straight edge. That will get you 10 honest servings.Was a little surprised that this particular product only lasts 5 years when most other products that Augasson makes last for 25. Then again, I can’t imagine a product this tasty would last for 5 years without being gobbled up!

This is economical large quantity Pancake mix: Tastes delicious, prepares easily. I highly recommend it to save on the exorbatant box brands available.
