Food
Created Tuesday 27 December 2022
Keeping a well-organized pantry, refrigerator and freezer is the key to managing your backup supply of food.
A recommended approach is to make a minimum provisions list (MPL), which lists off all of the items that should be in your pantry, and how much. Before you go grocery shopping, make a shopping list from the MPL. Some suggested things to put on your list:
- Fruits
- Raisins/other dried fruit
- Canned fruits
- Nuts
- Proteins
- Dried/frozen/canned meats or meat substitutes
- Dried/canned beans
- Powdered eggs/milk
- Grains/pasta
- Cereals/Oatmeal/Grits, etc
- Pasta in various formats (maybe include high-protein varieties)
- Rice (Especially inexpensive in some ethnic grocery stores)
- Flourishes
- Sauces, such as marinara or salsa to complete foods
- Spices
- Tea
- Don't forget your pets
- Supply of dry/canned pet food
- Cat litter
