Food Recommendations, Sources, and Long-Term Storage
I've been reading this forum for a few years now, and I've always thought it odd that there is no enduring food discussion thread pinned at the top for consolidated all food planning questions and advice. We have pinned threads for communications, survival books, and other topics, but food - possibly the most essential item in a disaster preparation plan - isn't included among them. If one of the moderators sees fit to add such a thread, I thought I'd compile some links to related threads from the past and sources for food that people have recommended along the way. If there's enough interest, I can attempt to keep the first post updated with new additions to these subtopics as people add more to the discussion.
Food Recommendations and Discussion:
M4C: Some Thoughts on Buying Food
M4C: What are you growing?
M4C: 3 months of food for 5 adults 2 children
M4C: School me on MREs
M4C: Source for Freeze Dried Food large order
M4C: Bugs in Rice
M4C: Food Cans and Tins
M4C: Water purification and things other than biologic agents
Sources for Survival Food:
Walmart.com listings for Emergency Food
Associated M4C Thread: Walmart has Food Storage Items?
Amazon listings for Mountain House food products
Amazon listings for Wise Company food products
Food Storage:
M4C: Shelf life of MREs
M4C: Foodsaver Vacuum sealer
M4C: Rice Storage
M4C: Root Cellar Build
Sources for Food and Water Storage Equipment:
Lexington Container Company - good mail order source for water cans, barrels, and other storage containers
Walmart.com listings for water storage containers
Amazon listings for water storage containers
WaterBrick Stackable Emergency Water and Food Storage Container, 3.5 gal on Amazon (price ranges from about $18 - $25+)
FoodBrick Stackable Food Storage Container on Amazon ($17 each as of 22 Mar 19)
I'm sure there's a lot more that could be added to this - these are just a few interesting discussions and sources I've gleaned from this forum. I hope others are interested in a consolidated location for this sort of information.
