Animal factor. Now I have seen where they keep canned goods there.
Though most getaway homes stoves run on propane not electricity so canned foods would be just as good as the MRE's.
Pouched food is put in a sealed metal or heavy plastic container. They will last 10 years or more. I'm thinking mountain homes, cabins on the lake and sea side homes. Yes, people normally do take their groceries with them, but some just want to have a back up. Heck, I normally keep about 2 weeks worth of pasta and rice dishes on hand. More than once, I've fixed that on a camping stove when the power went out during a storm.
