We have been stuck due to 5 ft of wet snow and normal snow plows could not get through. Like the article says, canned food is great. Soup, vegetables, tuna, salmon.
I don’t live where it snows but I keep about 20 2 liter bottles of water in the bottom of my freezer. If the power goes out it will stay cold for days, and I have emergency water on hand. I can also move a few into the fridge to keep that stuff cold.
Yeah but he forgot cheddar cheese and apples. It takes ten pounds of milk to make one pound of cheese. Cheese lasts a long time without refrigeration and apples are nourishing as well as thirst quenchers. A chunk of Cheese and an apple or two my standard casse-croute when hunting. Always make sure to have them in the house during hurricane season.
Spam!!!!!! The meat that won the war!!!! LOL
I always wondered why my dad never liked Spam until he said one day, boy, you would hate it to if for 2 years you had to eat cold spam and cold boiled potatoes. He was in WWII in Europe for those two years. I knew he didn’t have to eat all the time but I got the idea, especially after one day hiking in northern NM on a winter day and had cold spam and a couple pieces of white bread for lunch.
Just got a 12-can case of split pea and ham soup that expires in mid-2017. Also have some high calorie Boost complete nutritional drinks that don’t expire for at least a year.
