9 Reasons a Large Burlap Bag Should be in Your Survival Kit
1. ...

I've read several books about survival at sea. It's hard to imagine that there is much of anything that should be discarded from a lifeboat. You might not see a need for a small vial of smallpox virus, but the vial itself might become useful.

Heck, one of those burlap bags could be my bug-out bag. ;)

Actually, I'm saving them up to make a nice 3 piece suit.

I cook a lot of meat in the ground.. Whole hog, Beef inside rounds and briskest. I wrap the meat after ample rub with heavy duty foil and then use burlap as the second covering.

With whole hogs especially, the burlap keeps the hog from falling apart when removing from the hole.
