Our take on the Ready Hour Rancher's Black Bean & Rice Soup Case Pack

Ready Hour Rancher's Black Bean & Rice Soup is a shelf-stable emergency food case with five resealable pouches, each making 4 servings. The pouches are ready-to-serve: add water and simmer for 10 to 15 minutes. The full case holds about 3,400 calories. It is gluten-free but carries allergen warnings for eggs, milk, peanuts, soy, tree nuts and wheat, so it is not safe for most allergy households.
