"Hehe, alright! That's an easy walk in that case- we're right in the store already after all."

Indeed, all the displays are...well, around them. So Emporio just gestures to them as he moves for the shelves with the food stock. "I keep a basic stock here; the idea isn't to make profits or sales or anything, it's about making sure people can be prepared heading out. That way, if they see a tent or something they like from another store they're not completely out of pocket, heh..."

Anyway, the food shelves! "Here we are! There's MREs as you can see," and he does hold out one such pack. "They're pretty self explanitory- there's instructions on the packs, everything's included...honestly, they're probably easier to throw together than some of the other stuff we stock," Emporio laughs.

And they do of course stock other things- obvious snack type protein bars aside, there's at least a few 'just add water' type meals- rice, ramen, biscuits and gravy...yum.

"A lot of it is freeze-dried, so it lasts...pretty much as long as you need, albeit with a cost."

The Cost is the Flavor.
