These Freeze Dried Avocado Slices are current production and was manufactured in 2025 by a large military defense contractor. We just purchased a large lot of these direct from a Defense Reutilization Office (DRO) Source. Although actual use is always classified on these kinds of bids, our information is that these are purchased for Executive Branch use, not for our troops in the field. That usually means these go to underground bunkers for continuity of government use by strategic military leaders, congressional members and sometimes even White House staff or leadership.
You can expect to get 25+ years out of them in the can - and probably as many as 30 to 40 since there is no water or oxygen in the can to spoil the avocado!!!
Preparation: Rehydrate avocado in cold water for 1 hour, drain excess water, and eat! You can use them on the sandwich, on a toast, in scrambled eggs, in guacamole, in salads, as a salad dressing, or any other way.
Avocados contain quite a bit of potassium, dietary fiber, and fats. Avocado oil alone is almost two-thirds (71%) monounsaturated fatty acids - aka the "good fats", shown to lower LDL, or "bad" cholesterol and increase HDL, or "good" cholesterol. Additionally, avocados are loaded with nutrients such as vitamin C, vitamin K, vitamin B, vitamin E, and vitamin A. Avocados are also a good source of dietary fiber. So they are just a great item to have in a disaster preparedness kit.
Once opened they will last:
- up to 1 year in a Zip Lock bag with refrigeration once opened but not re-hydrated
- up to 60 days in a Zip Lock bag without refrigeration once opened, but not re-hydrated
- up to 5 days in the fridge once they are re-hydrated
These are perfect for storing and using for many years! You can have real avocado in just an hour with no mess and no waste - and it doesn't matter if the power goes out!!! Perfect for camping, boating, traveling, or at the cabin.

Let customers speak for us
from 103 reviewsGreat stuff, usually much better than description and if not, they have great customer service. I am generally a really grumpy old man with a terrible attitude but I have not been disappointed by Forest City Supply products or customer service on the rare occasions its needed (but they are quick to respond and reconcile any problems!). The world may be going to hades but I will do it well equipped. I highly recommend them.
Order arrived on time and in good condition
Both the intermediate cold sleeping bags & the bivy covers conditon were better than anticipated
The Ruck appears to be a new one. I was expecting a used one. The price was well worth it.
Saw this brand new woobie and added it to my cart without thinking. Heard these had been found and other surplus sites have them listed for way more. No wonder they sold out so fast. Definitely a new favorite site.
Great deal on a perfectly good pack. Condition exactly as described with one small tear that doesn't impact functionality at all. Can't believe the prices these guys have with fast shipping as well. Recommended to a ton of friends who also picked some up. Will continue to use going forward for surplus needs.
Shipping was super fast, and the description of the item was spot on. Very happy with my purchase.
My son's should be here very soon.
I expected pretty used gear. They don’t appear to be used at all. And the shipping was quick.
Fast delivery, great gear, awesome value.
I couldnt ask for a better experience!
