There’s also something called food fatigue it’s were you have the exact same thing every day for weeks on end soon you have to make yourself eat and before long much of what you prepare goes uneaten. JRandomFreeper is more knowledgeable on this as he has seen it happen. Same with your stores oatmeal for breakfast, spam and flat bread for lunch and rice and beans for supper day in and day out will get old so store as much variety as you can, spices, gravies and additives to dress up those staples are a MUST!

Food fatigue is over rated.

I've been on a severely restricted diet for three years now due to reactions to food from a mast cell disorder. Essentially all I can eat is oatmeal and chicken, breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks. I can small amounts of other foods on occasion to break the monotony but not enough to survive on if there's no oatmeal and chicken.

Yeah, it was tough at first, but you do get used to it. And hunger goes a long way to making the same thing day in and day out go down easier.

When you're hungry enough, you become grateful for what you have.

And you eat it.

If/when TSHTF, I have a couple months worth of chicken canned and frozen, and enough oatmeal to get by.

Then either God heals me or I die.
