      [camleish], I am sorry but we are not opening any new accounts at this time. We are not able to support any additional business at this time.

      Sorry,

      sounds like a dang good time to be in the food storage business.

          Has anyone checked out Daily Bread?

          They are located in Kaysville, UT. I guess their warehouse is in SLC.

          Is this a reputable company?

              Wise foods looks like it'll be about 2500 LESS than Daily Bread for a year supply of 3 meals per day for a family of 2 adults and 3 kids.

              Daily Bread is 9000+ for a year supply.

              Ouch.

                Be sure to check what you're getting. Most year supply are two meals about 2400 calories/day. 3 meals seems like a good deal to me.

                    our supply is from daily bread, but was a gift and i would never pay that much for it.

                      I called Daily Bread. They claim to be located in Kaysville. Wise Food claims to be in Centerville.

                      I'm suprised there seems to be that much of a disparity.

                      I was quoted 9000+ for 2 adults and 3 kids for 3 meals/day for 12 months.

                      I'm going to have to talk to Wise Food.

                      The guy at Daily Bread says if we do a year, he'll throw in a bunch of free food, but not that much!

                      Daily Bread seems to have a much larger variety of entrees than Wise Food.

                      Hmm... That's almost 200/month difference. If not more.

                        I just found a Wise Food discount coupon for 10%.

                        I wonder if they'll let me apply the coupon and pick up the food at their warehouse if it's in Utah. Their HQ is in Centerville.

                          What do you recommend for a quality lighter?

                          It seems that the Brunton Firestorm is a bad ass lighter and is sold out most places. It seems that you can find one here.. I am just not sure that I want to drop $40 on a lighter.

                          Coach, what do you use?

                            Don't you have a little Benzomatic torch? I was just looking at a catalog that some Zippos in it and was looking at their pen torches. That Brunton looks cool. But $40 is expensive. The $15 Zippos seems pricy to me.

                              Yes I do but I am trying to piece together a bag, similar to what Coach has and what you are starting, and the torch is a bit chunky. You can find knock-off zippos for about $4.00/ea.

                                A cigar torch would probably work well. But it won't be waterproof like that one you linked.
