I think if you need to eat this you won’t care if it’s vegan

what does it mean when the package is soft? mine still has 2 years left but it is soft now. never opened

Smell it. It sounds like moisture got in. It will spoil if it hasn't already, but if it seems edible, it might be worth a taste, though when in doubt, throw it out.

Am I correct to assume this can be stored in a car emergency kit, where temps will potentally be below zero in winter?

I would recommend the SOS or Datrix versions of these food blocks. They are US Coast Guard approved for lifeboat rations and have been tested at both low (below freezing) and high temps and are safe to store in your car/truck/vehicle year round. Also, both companies make pouches of water, I believe they are 4oz pouches, that are also US Coast Guard approved for same situations. Can be frozen without bursting. Both products have a 5-year shelf life, but I would recommend replacement after 3 years, no specific experience, just a process I use. I use both for emergency purposes.

Are they gluten free?

presumably not, zoom in on the second product picture for the ingredient list. this is not a "healthy" option, its a cheap "survival" bar, meaning lots of calories, lower quality ingredients, and bland flavor. in short, not for someone concerned for their health, other than not starving to death.
