I'm sure that O’Zero will arrange for relief supplies from Somalia, Zimbabwe, Bangladesh and Sudan to tide us over any rough spots ahead.

Your average squirrel is only worth about 400 calories, but will sure make that pot of rice taste a lot less bland.
Stock .22 rifle ammunition, and be prepared to pay a bounty on every fresh squirrel, rabbit, gopher, or whatever a bit of hunting can easily provide.
And our 6 hens have laid over 950 eggs so far this year...

Keep in mind two ratios: Calories per dollar if you are short of money. Buy bukk food, beans in the first place. LEARN how to cook beans properly to avoids indigestion. (3 step process to destroy phytotoxines- soak overnight in cold water. Put into roiling water for several minutes and then transfer into hot water.
Calories per cubic foot if you are short on storage space.
If you sleep for 10 hours, for 4 family members you'll need minimum 180,000 calories per month. If there is no other food or it is exorbitantly expensive, this will keep you in good shape, perhaps losing 2-3 pounds.
If you are overveight, you must ensure you lose weight slowly to protect kidneys and liver (fat is full of toxins)
How much will 180,000 calories/month cost? It depends what you buy. PLAN ahead and then go shopping. Don't go too much into carbs. Microelements must be obtained from food, not supplements.
Plan now while the food is still cheap and plentiful so you are not forced to buy over your budget later.
No one mentioend wine. Very healthy and bottle of good red could be rationed to last a week.
