Looks like they are catering to Branch Davidians-type of wackos…[/quote]

Earthquakes? That Costco item has “17,586 Total Servings of Emergency Food.” There’s no way food supplies would disappear for that long in an event of an emergency. They are either catering to institutions, or cults like the branch davidians…[/quote]
Or to Mormons. They need to stock up on a years supply of food. That would feed 3 meals/day for 4 years for a family of 4… or 3 meals/day for 1 year for a family of 16. My Mormon grandfather was from a family of 14… so it’s not all that out-there.
