Have you never heard of canning?
I have the feeling you just want someone to argue with. Are you having a boring or bad day?

Boring.
Let’s face it, if we have to rely on back yard gardens we are so screwed that it doesn’t matter we have been able to create an enclave for our family.
Your list will last a few months at best — it won’t get you through a financial disaster as big as you posit.
That is reality.
But in hard times, its nice if you already know how to cold pack for canning...
The good part is all the equipment you use is reuseable the following year with the exception of the sealing lids...I use parafin on the jam's. Tomatoes are easy canning so are peaches, pears, cherries etc. Veggies are not too practical for the cold pack method. Almost need a pressure cooker for your canning veggies...Can your spaghetti sauce without meat. Can be cold packed, add meat when fixing it for dinner...
Haven't canned in decades but once you do it for years, like riding a bike, you don't forget...
