We're just buying lots of pasta and dry and canned beans. Basically something that we'd eat anyway. Also, stocking up on essential medication. The idea is it's 2 weeks where I can't go to a grocery store or pharmacy. I presume we'll have power/water/nat gas during that time. If we don't, I have 2 x 30lb propane tanks, a trailer, and a lifestraw family (purchased this back when I was in Alberta).
I used MRE's for my 72 hour emerg kit when I was in Calgary. They only are good for 3-5 years though, so at year 4 we just starting eating them during day-hikes. Overall they taste fine (some of them are really good), and they are very convenient. They are bulky and heavy though.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
I'm going to total prepare this weekend and i'll let you know what my initial perceptions are of these. I live in an earthquake zone so I plan on picking up one of those legacy kits from for long term storage anyway.
