Is there a shop/store locally where one can buy MREs(Meals Ready to Eat) and other long-life foods with storage life 5yrs+?

Are we about to experience a nastyness that only yourself is aware of. If so spread the word, let us all know :P

Buy some MacDonalds or KFC?
Know a few people who did the KFC mini loaf and left in cupboard for months and still "fresh" no mould after months.
Plastic normally has a 5+ year life.

Sorry to troll, couldn't resist.

It's true though, no other life on this planet will eat that stuff. I remember reading a book about garbage and stuff a while ago where they were talking about finding Happy Meals from the 50s and 60s in landfills, things like Twinkies as well. If you were hungry enough most processed foods would be palatable for a very long time past their supposed expiry dates, even if their aesthetic appeal was severely degraded.
 
I have been watching videos on youtube of guys reviewing all kinds of MRE's. I never went to the army and I would love to try a few military MRE's, just to taste it. But they are so expensive. Even the civilian ones

Here you go 37 year old twinkie, apparently it did grown some mold at one point, long dead now, it has the consistency of Styrofoam...
