I saw this blog post while researching 72 hour kits. There are some good first-hand tips from his experience. A lot of this will apply to any type of wide-spread emergency. Also interesting is what FEMA was handing out for food.

Also found a few tips here about what not to put in your 72-hour kit. I never thought of mint gun tainting the taste of all the food in my 72-hour kit but that is one of the tips in this post.
