My son and I were doing some quick numbers, 2k calories a day, times 30 days= 60k calories needed. Taking into consideration not only simple carbs, but protein, fats and nutrients, is it possible to fit 60k calories (plus the other nutritional needs), in a sealed 5 gallon bucket?
We considered palatability, ease of use, shelf life, but what else should we think about?
Here is the 1st list:
4 large jars peanut butter (7500 calories per jar)
Foil packs of tuna
1 box Cliff bars (24)
small bottle cooking oil
20+ packets of rice mixes (yellow, with red beans, etc.)
10+ packets of mixed dry beans
small can powdered eggs
small bottle of crystal sauce
30 days worth of a multi-vitamin
What else? Again, all must go into a 5 gallon bucket. and, some of the 'survival foods" suck with regards to taste, IMHO.
What did we miss?
Thanks, up front.
