I stocked up on rice. To flavor it, I have: the little seasoning "stock" cups of beef, chicken, and vegetable flavors; all kinds of tomatoes; canned vegetables; salmon in the foil packs (tons of these. cheap, light, and store forever, take up little space. I have mine in a big plastic jar from halloween pretzel treats).

I have been buying one #10 can of the dehydrated foods WalMart has been stocking lately. They can't keep them on the shelves, but there are tins of powdered butter, whole eggs, vegetables, TVP for those who can eat soy, baking mixes of various kinds, omelette mix, instant potatoes (already have tons so I don't buy this in the cans) freeze dried fruits, powdered honey, etc. Every time I shop I buy at least one thing for my stash.

Cool, that works - it doesn’t take much to season rice. I’m thinking of the Walmart cans too.

Oooh, where in Walmart do you find these things? I’ve never come across them before, and powdered butter does dound tantilizing. Butter is sort of right behind coffee on my list of what keeps life livable.
