Whiskey, Rum, Sugar, Flour, These are some good tradin’ supplies....(IMO)

Also add spaghetti in place of part of your flour supply. It lasts a long time (particularly sealed in a steel ammo can), and can produce a meal in minutes if you can get boiling water.

This is probably _the_ most informative and important thread I have ever read on FReepers. All the posts will be saved, somehow.

Got a question, though - wheat has to be ground and then baked, pasta has to be boiled, there must be a cooking fire.

How about rice as a long-term storeable grain? Easy to store, simple to prepare, combines with vegetables fresh or canned, nutritious; rice seems like a viable alternative to wheat as long-term survival food.

Thoughts?
