This gives good insite into what you need to start with.. there is no meat on the list, it's like a bare bones, do it from scratch, kind of list. With the total weight of all the foods that are on the list, you won't be carrying it too far, so some canned foods and treats would probably go good with this list, as well as the coffee you suggested. |

I used this calculator like this 8 people in my family So I want 3 months of food for now, for 8 people. That's 8 x .25 = 2 2 years of food feeds 8 people for 3 months. I got most of this list from Mormon warehouses, very friendly very serious people. Cost around 1000 dollars a year if you use Costco BJs ect to supplement what the Mormons don't have or over charge for. It is a list that supplies full diary needs, not comfort living, just living. Estmate of 1000 a person for 2 years of food. Note the storage method is VITAL Here it is bucket, plastic ' 2 HDPE' it could be 4 gallon bucket or 55 gallon drum. Mylar bags to fit inside said bucket. Oxygen absorbers 2000cc per 5 gallons of volume. Any combination of sizes to add up to what you need. Pour in food drop in oxy absorber, heat seal bag.. Seal bucket. Good for 7 to 30 years depending of food. |
