Thank you ❤
Thank you so much
I'm going with you when the poo hits the fan.
Thanks for putting this list together!👍🏻
You can put rice in with your salt to keep it dry.
When storing my rice, flour, and pasta I place a dried Bay Leaf in to keep the bugs out. It works.
If you put your bags of rice in the freezer for 2 weeks and then take out, You will have to blot dry the package for dampness, it will kill All bug eggs and then can be stored in tightly sealed plastic jars without the worry of bugs, Same goes for flour, cornmeal
Thank You.
OK thanks 😊 😊😊
Using a stick of spearmint gum does the same thing!
Thank you, I never knew this
I ate dried beans that were more than 30 years old after cooking them in the crockpot. They tasted delicious and I had no adverse effects.
I have a bag that's at least 10 years old, thanks for posting!
@@lz8484 If you are cooking old beans you may need to soak them longer than normal but that is the only downfall. Officially, dried beans have a minimum shelf life of one to two years, per the USDA. Unofficially, they last… basically forever. Dried beans are considered non-perishable according to Quora.
Where do you get 30 year old beans?
@@wilbur813 You find them behind the 29 year old dried peas in your pantry 🤣
@@rachaelsupadventures😂😂😂
moral of the story, store EVERYTHING in a cool dark place in an airtight container
Cool dark dry
All stored in glass
Hahahahaha
Dark cool and plastic big container put them in . ❤ it
Also for your dank memes.
Rice and canned food. Water and salt. Honey ,garlic, dried herbs. Lentil. Salted fish. Vinegar and bleach.
Nothing beats heirloom seeds and good soil.
Hydroponic gardening is another option.
Got the seeds but no soil😂😂😂 honest.
And be prepared to protect what you are growing !
Then you need to buy fertiliser and other equipment and also rely on electricity.@@lovealwaysmom

Great list I agree with you except por the bullion cubes the texture after expiration date is weird 😮
Can’t several of those items get weevils?

Great info and even more good info in the comments. One tip from me and it concerns pantry moths etc which oats and grains almost always have. Before storing put your product in the freezer for 24 hours. It won't freeze the grains but will freeze and kill bugs etc. I do this for my everyday use as well.
I got moths one year and it was a real pain in the a$$. I lived in an apartment in Florida. The apartment below me had been empty for a couple of months. They left behind pasta and cornbread mix. I had to throw out everything that wasn’t completely sealed 3 times because they wouldn’t go clean out their apartment pantry. I store everything airtight now. I saw bugs I never knew could infest food. It’s been YEARS and I still can’t eat anything that has cornmeal in it. 🤢🤮
My understanding and I could be wrong is 72 hours. It could just be a source that thought tell 'em longer to be sure.
In an emergency, can pantry moths be eaten as a source of protein?
Never heard of pantry moths before
Great tip. Thanks 😅😅😅😅
A great way to keep most of these things in a waterproof / damp proof environment is to vacuum seal them. It would be easy enough to seal them in packages in the amounts you would use each particular time so you wouldn’t have to reseal the container each time. Ball jars can also be vacuum sealed.
It's much, MUCH more than having food... It's keeping it.
WE are so doomed. Survival packs...HA!! Why?? You will have to defend them, and they will keep you alive longer because.....you aren't waiting for FEMA are YOU??!!!!!

From rice and beans to honey and dried fruits, this list covers all the essentials for building a reliable stockpile. Thank you for sharing these valuable insights-I'll definitely be adding these items to my pantry!
I put dried rice in with my salt to absorb any moisture.
How interesting to watch a presentation specializing in the exact food stuffs I grew up with for almost 7 decades.
Can I propose a future presentation featuring things to have in your kitchen?
Dried lentils, rolled oats, dried beans, and dried corn can all be ground into types of flour IF you have a way to grind them without electricity.
A hand grinder would be a huge addition to your survival kitchen👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Mortar and pestle is also really handy for grinding whole-seed spices you've toasted by the serving to custom grain size for the freshest spices, ever!
I have a huge one my daughter got me because it's shaped like a pig. I collect pigs. It can hold a couple cups of grain or corn. I think it's for making masa actually, but obviously I can grind a lot in there. I'll just gather up the nieghborhood kids and some can grind, while others shake cream! We even have a hand crank apple press.@@trombonemunroe
An oil press should be on that list as well
Don't forget a manual can opener lol. You have to figure out what you would need to cook and bake if you didn't have electricity. I know people who we pretend once a weekend per month that they don't have power. I think I have also see videos on youtube. It could be worth it to check out to get ideas.
Grinder? You can grind most foods easily with stone, that method worked for native People's for thousands of years

Here's a new subscriber for you, if that's something you want. I completely agree with the wisdom of storing food that have a (virtually) unlimited shelf life.
This is one of the most beneficial videos I’ve ever seen. So much wonderful information that I never knew..…all in one spot. Thank you for taking the time to research and share. There are a lot of cutesy, sarcastic comments….i am at a loss as to why.
Because honey is the ONLY food that never expires.
@@SirDigbyChickenCaesar Water never expires, and all the other foods mentioned in the video will never expire if stored properly.
@@SunshineCatwomanwater does go bad. There are multiple ways to make it last longer. Storing things properly does go a long way.
The issue is that it is very easy to mess most things up. I don't remember if it was the video or a commenter that mentioned storing things by usage size. For example, if you use 1# of dried beans in a soup or stew, store 1# in a jar.
Each time you open a container to use an item, moisture has a chance of getting inside before you reseal it.
You need to look at most containers and clean them regularly. Just water in some containers can cause leaching of the container. Many clay water pots from many countries contain lead. Some of those countries have laws against this, but they don't normally enforce them.
Honey is the only item that I have read any material about not spoiling. I would need to check the natural maple syrup as it has many similarities with honey. Other than these two, most of the other items easily spoil with a little water, which includes high humidity. Good storage helps, but constantly opening the container for using a little at a time increases the chance of water or humidity getting inside.
Yes. Humidity is water. I worded it that way due to some people using recently cleaned, but not completely dried utensils to dip into a jar of sugar or beans or whatever.
@@thatgayqueen2826 Maple syrup will mold. It begins to ferment; had it happen.
Stock water in glass mason jars...celtic or sea salt in mason jars... store lots of food items in mason jars.
Protect all of those glass jars, even if you DON'T live in an earthquake zone.
Ceramic, not only to preserve it, but also filter it. Plastic is the most convenient and the number one available thou
@@_DROM_Plastic has its own bullshit going on with it tho
So expensive in UK
Wish I could find bigger ones than the quart jars
Dried Beans you better have a lot's of energy to cook them, I recommend canned or lentels which can be cooked in 20 min or loss.
Dry are fine, and will last longer than canned. The thing with dry is to soak them long enough, and if you have a pressure cooker, you can get them done in not a lot of time. Dried beans were what got us through the Great Depression. We don't have any problems at all compared to the Great Depression and World War II. In fact I can't believe how good it's been or for how long. Except for those of us who have been blessed with a very long life, no one remembers how bad it has been, nor how far from being bad we really are. As a child I couldn't have imagined there being strawberries in the grocery store in January of February, but these days every well stocked grocery store has strawberries in January or February. And they have Raspberries and blueberries, and oranges and grapefruit and tomatoes, and things which come from the opposite side of the world!
Any time there were canned beans in the store, they were way more dear than we could afford. We only wood burning stove, but we'd soak some beans overnight, then change the water in the morning, then start them cooking in the pressure cooker about an hour before supper. They'd always be nice and soft and creamy by supper time. It was the soaking that made the difference, and changing the water kept the toots down, if you know what I mean. The great thing about pintos is that you can grow 50 lbs of them in not a lot of space, let them dry on the plant, then harvest them, and you'll be set for a long time. You'll probably get good an sick of eating beans, but they'll keep for years, you can grow more from what you have, and they will fill the empty spots.
@@Chompchompyerded when you soak all night, they take only 15 minutes in a pressure cooker only, i cook always dry beans, theyre far better than canned
@@roudaynahelou6121Yebo!!!! Soak beans over night and you have a shorter cooking time.
@@roudaynahelou6121 Ever since we got an Instant Pot, I do the same. With one of those, you can cook the hardest-to-cook dry beans inside of an hour.
Dry beans of any kind very easy to cook. Just put them in bowl, feel with water in the evening.. in the morning you wake up and they are ready to cook for 10-15 minutes
Coffee. Also rice and canned food are good to keep at home.
Tuna can, corn, chickpeas,
But they have an Expiration on the Canned Foods…
Why chickpeas?
I believe he included them with beans. They are a "legume". (Not sure why he separated lentils out from the other legumes like beans, chickpeas, etc.) @@joannehendershot1408
@@piacash5216 Canned food has a best by date not an expiration date. Only baby food and formula have expiration dates. Food used past a best by date may look a little bit different or the box of cake mix may not rise as much due to the rising agent being old but it is still edible. Google it and find out for yourself. The best by date is used to trick you into throwing out food to buy more! Also, if you use heavy cream and it goes past its date and becomes sour you can blend it until it separates into butter. Dump out the liquid and the sour goes with it leaving you yummy butter to use just rinse the butter and add a little sea salt for flavor!
@@joannehendershot1408 The liquid in a can of chick peas can be used as a substitute for eggs when baking. 3 T is equal to a large egg. They are also a good source of protein!
Boullion can be used to make a hot drink to carry with you on a cold day. I use my stainless steel water bottle to maintain the heat.

If we had politicians who stopped using our tax $ for funding war in the middle east to protect their oil, and instead used our $ to help us, it would be a huge leap in a positive direction.
@@kristinetravis-ot6bb
The United States has been involved in a number of wars in the Middle East over the past several decades. The reasons for these wars are complex and vary depending on the specific conflict. However, some of the most common reasons include:
To protect US interests in the region, such as access to oil or military bases.
To counter the spread of terrorism or weapons of mass destruction.
To promote democracy and human rights.
To support allies in the region.
The wars in the Middle East have had a significant impact on the region and the world. They have resulted in the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people, displaced millions of others, and destabilized entire countries. The wars have also cost the United States trillions of dollars.
The consequences of the wars in the Middle East are complex and far-reaching. They have contributed to the rise of extremist groups, the destabilization of governments, and the spread of instability throughout the region. The wars have also had a significant impact on the US economy and foreign policy.
It is important to note that there are many different perspectives on the wars in the Middle East. Some people believe that the wars were necessary to protect US interests or to promote democracy. Others believe that the wars were counterproductive and have made the region more unstable. There is no easy answer to the question of whether or not the wars in the Middle East were justified. It is a complex issue with no easy answers.
It is also important to note that the wars in the Middle East are not the only reason for the region's problems. The region has a long history of conflict and instability, and many of the problems that exist today are rooted in that history. The wars in the Middle East have certainly exacerbated these problems, but they are not the sole cause.
It is important to be aware of the different perspectives on the wars in the Middle East and to consider all of the factors that have contributed to the region's problems. There is no easy answer to the question of whether or not the wars were justified, but it is an important question to consider.

Finally, you need a dark cold dry storage which is big enough to store all your food and a lot of air tight containers which are enough for your food and water.
Interesting to watch this but some several errors and other things that are not mentioned. Honey is naturally safe and can last for millenia, Tinned foods can last for centuries (ignore sell by dates on cans) the food is preserved in a vacuum and cannot go off) - just need to store tins in a cool dark place. Regarding water, any stored water is safe - if you boil it then let it cool when to use - it is safe. Sea water can be boiled and then cooled and can separate water and salt to be stored when needed. Finally dried pulses, rice, dried fruits and dried pasta can be kept indefinitely as long as it stored properly
Dried pulses?
Chickpeas also known as garbanzo beans are pulses.
When I was younger (early 20's) , I wouldn't eat anything past the dates on the package. I threw so much food out. Now that I'm older and know better, I don't even care about those dates. I think about my mom and grandparents and how they used the smell and taste test for canned goods and the like. That's what I do now. Saves a lot of money.
Not all "tinned" can foods are equal. Plastic in some commercial canned stuff has a plastic liner that breaks down.
Thanks! What about nuts & seeds? Do you think there's a way to store them safely for long periods?
Oiive oil would be a must for me.
It spoils after a year even in a aluminium no light container. I mean u still can use it but the taste starts to decay
I think that's what the ghee is for. Oils can last awhile but they can go rancid faster than the shelf life of these items. This is a list of things that last "forever" so to speak
I've read that coconut oil lasts forever so I've bought a few tubs. I don't know how accurate this is, though.
I've had Avocado oil go rancid after opening it.
Dried Jerky+ In heavy salt solution boil small pieces of meats in it for 3-5 minutes. (For anti MOLD and flavor.) Drain it and then smoke it in what for us looked like a large outhouse with sheet metal steel roofing 45 FT high to prevent fire destruction of rough lumber Fir wood. Oak, Alder, other smoking woods for 3 days. I have some that tastes just fine that was made in 1972. Rock hard and sealed in jars that were heated to 165 degrees and sealed in half gallon jars. Put a small piece in the mouth and it will draw saliva to soften a bit at a time. 4 oz. dry weight is equivalent to a 1/2 lb of fresh meat. A stone walled smoke house can last an easy 100 yrs.
Add to dried veggies in water for stews and gumbo's is a great use.
That's a great idea for a video, building a stone wall smokehouse!
In North Carolina I saw a rural smoke house on a former plantation gone to crap that was built in the late 170's or early 1800's in excellent condition that was at least 14 x 20 ft inside and still smelled of smoke and smoked meats. THAT is longevity.
If you’re having a bug out situation where you need to hurry up and get out, you can’t take all your canned food with you, so it’s best to preserve dry and wet goods for just in case scenarios.
I keep canned soup n foods in heavy cardboard boxes , so that if we have to evacuate in a hurry we can just pick up the boxes to quickly get it all in the car....
It's nice to hear someone actually saying something correct about salt for a change. It simply regulates our fluid level. If we eat too much, we get thirsty.
That's not quite accurate. Salt causes you to retain fluid, and in some cases that can be bad (for instance if you have heart of kidney disease). It is a necessary electrolyte, but you can get all you need for those purposes just by eating the right fresh foods. Eating too much of it will cause problems for you long term. Like everything, it's a trade-off though. Some people may like it enough that they're willing to knock a few years off their life, or spend the last years in a nursing home where they hide the salt shaker from you, and feed you horribly bland food. In the end, it's your choice. If you know the dangers, and that's what you want to do anyhow, then who's to tell you to do otherwise? Certainly not me. Probably not the loved ones which you'll leave behind either. They'll be devastated whether you go sooner or whether you go later. So you do you.
@@Chompchompyerded If you have heart or kidney disease it's ALWAYS Down to sugar. Not salt. So don't blame salt for the damage sugar has already done.
@@ChompchompyerdedI'll cheerfully tell you something else as well. There's a lot of medications that do far more damage and cause a lot more fluid retention.
@@Chompchompyerded it is a case of everything in moderation. Too much salt and too much sugar is certainly not good for anyone, Everyone has to be treated accordingly.
The big take away I got about salt is for persevering meat.
Put everything in a dry, dark, and cool place in a sealed, air tight container
When I lived in Alaska I had filtered water I took from a lake and after about two years it was definitely not drinkable. I did keep it in a cool dark...ish place. Sugar, salt, flour, and honey I had stored for lots of years and it never went bad.
Lake water needs more than being filtered. It needs to be boiled or sanitized with bleach.
wheat flour,becomes lumpy in 2 years or less
Your water may have been filtered but it wasn't sterilized.
Small organisms (even ants) can't consume carbohydrates without water as a coolant. Ants, for example, don't get into sugar unless it's in solution because they can't afford the body fluid necessary to process it.

People with allergies to wheat and dairy, have to rethink the list, ( Like chick pea flower, and amaranth and quinoa flour for baking if you are allergic to wheat) Dried Quinoa is fantastic, also, where are the nuts and seeds, that should have been on the list, also some dried fruits, and dried mushrooms too, spices, Engevita yeast ( B vitamins) Dulce, ( adds iodine) Canned soups and beans. Also Red lentils are the fastest to cook, and you can buy huge bags of this for little money at an Indian store, you can grind down and make into flour that can be made into chapati's, cornflour, and chick pea flour are good alternatives.
To go along with this list, you should buy a few cases of mason jars. And one of those battery operated sealer for the mason jars that sucks all the air out. Store all these ingredients in those mason jars and we should be good to go how old else also store, black pepper, and some other seasonings

Good to know. We recently moved into a farmhouse with our friend's mom & her kitty to help her out & be able to keep all 4 of our kitties til we can hopefully get a house. I've been evicting mice & trying to keep them out. Cleaning up & sealing off places/ holes, too. Also had to change how she was storing her cat food since her cat & the mice were getting into it. I switched her kitty to our kitties' better quality food. I now put the bag on a high shelf with the laundry soaps/ stuff (she doesn't get up there & neither do our cats) & I have 2 plastic containers to pour the food from as needed, 1 in the bedroom for a feeding station & 1 in the kitchen for the other feeding station. I keep their food bowls out 24/7, if the mice try to eat it, they're a good target for the kitties. 😆 Her kitty is a good mouser too. Not so sure about ours since they're indoor only & we haven't really had a mouse issue before. Gotta love living in BFE with all this Ohio farmland around us. 😅
As a temporary measure you can pack mouse holes with stainless steel pads which mice won't chew through.

Regarding honey, it's only raw honey that is beneficial. The filtered and processed honey you get out of the bear-shaped plastic container has been filtered and refined to the extreme that removes a lot of the properties that makes it beneficial and antimicrobial.
Some of them have added high fructose corn syrup as a cheap extender so the honey will cost less to manufacture.

It’s gonna be hard to store some things in Florida as it is not “cool and dry” here 😬
And we don't have basements, or food cellars.
But we Floridians can store dry food in #10 cans with O2 absorbers. I've stored rice and beans for several years with no problem.
@lancerevell5979 Even with the #10 cans it's best to store them in a cool dry place. But it's good to hear it can be done.
Many thanks for the great informations
I'd say that too if it weren't for the fact that I saw so many things in it that I knew for fact was wrong.
Maple sugar is better than maple syrup, more compact and absolutely delicious in oatmeal and no worries about mold.

Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge, I really appreciate it. 👍🤗
This is soooo helpful ... THANK YOU !!!
I store in 2 quart mason jars these are readily available and easily found at certain times of the year. I was surprised that "dry canning" was not mentioned since many of these items will contain insect eggs and dry canning destroys them and also kills any mold and bacteria. There are many RUclips videos on this method of preserving dry foods.
Your act to stock is the one threat others!!!
Seeds! A nicely sealed set is pretty cheap in terms of their worth in the future. Might not be needed right away but for longevity that would be one heck of a regret to have.
Thanks for sharing 😊
This guys voice is so soothing to the ears
Egyptian red lentils non irradiated like grown Idaho. With some peanut butter add after disaster grown squash onions and or carrots. Orange yellow veggies are as important as greens people. So don't forget mylar sealed squash seeds.
I am all sorted with water, got loads of the dehydrated stuff stored, you would be amazed how much dehydrated water you can store
Dehydrated water?!
@@alanalee9437 Yeah they are fantastic, come in tiny tablet form so can store loads and when rehydrated they make 500ml of water per tablet.
@@alanalee9437I believe that was a Snarky comment?
@@bethteer1509it's called having a laugh
@@bethteer1509 no, genuinely interested. Dehydration means the water is removed? Take the water out of water you end up with nothing. To rehydrate something you add water. This is not logical.
WOW, Excellent Video, I thought it was gonna be one of those Proccessed foodstuff promotions...
I've had Hardtack....it isn't Choclate chip cookies and it doesn't rise when baked and it contains no extra items.
I feel like if I don't store my food in a cool, dark, dry place in an air/water tight container, this guy is gonna yell at me 😂
Storing all these items is great, but understand they’ll do you zero good if you can’t protect your stash!
what about wholegrain rice? wholegrain pasta, lentil and chickpea pasta and yeast flakes?
You missed one very valuable item. LARD! Lard is rich in vitamin D and is very shelf stable and can also preserve meats.
Yes! You can also get oil from a plant that is easy to grow -- black oil sunflower seeds. But it as bags intended as bird seed, and plant them.
Eww!!! 🤢
Dry.Protein powder...muscle milk my fav can b eaten if no water
🙏 Thanks 👍
This a very good reason why I said that don't waste salt on the snowy roadside or on the ground.
No chance of running out of salt, so using it to prevent unnecessary car accidents is helpful.
The Earth has salt in abundance. It's not wasted if it saves lives...which it does.
The thing I sometimes wonder about survival storage is that the longer you require survival rations for, the worse the ongoing situation is. Food for a few weeks due to transport or electricity outage - good. A month or more worth for large natural disaster or civil unrest - worrying. Food and supplies for a year or more due to full blown war, epidemic very worrying. Most people wont have more than a few weeks to a months worth, and then what - Mad Max?
Then panic sets in. Those with "arms" will take everything from those without. Unfortunately, many will start taking within the first weeks because they haven't prepared. So you need more than just a cool dark place to keep your food.
And then bend over & kiss it all goodbye...
@@ttttia4734 We saw empty shelves and panic buying just a few years ago during the pandemic, but lots of people think it was a one-off and shortages like that won't happen again in the West. No one expected it, but those of us who planned ahead had enough food--and toilet paper!--for our families and didn't even have to go to the store.
Look at Ukraine--three years ago it was a prosperous country, but no longer is. I imagine people who sat around restaurant tables outside in the sunshine had zero hint that their country would be war torn in just a year.
Wow thank you for the educational info 👍👍👍
Thank you for this video. I have watched hundreds of vids and alot of them overlook water and salt.
Interesting storage tips THANKS
Excellent video.
❤ Soo useful info! I love it!
Great information 👍
This should've been titled "Do You Have a Cool Dry Place?"- I say store everything in a cool/dry place- some stuff needs it- and it won't hurt the stuff that doesn't. I can't think of anything that needs to be store in a hot.... whoa... I almost did it huh? Yeah- you get my point anyway. If you hang'em all, you'll get the guilty. And the best cool/dry place I can think of- underground. The only problem- no air flow, its stagnant- and tends to get damp. The ideal setup would be an enclosed underground space where you could ventilate and reasonably control humidity. A storm shelter- it would work perfectly- and I need one anyway- I live in the new tornado alley- in north Alabama. For the last few years, we've gotten more tornadoes than the traditional tornado alley that ran up through Teas and into the Midwest. So now they're saying this is the new "tornado alley"- which sucks- we would gladly give that honor back if we could. That said- we can't- and the only shelter I have stays flooded and is horrible- we no longer use it. It was built over 40 years ago, by hand- they just found a steep bank and dug into it- built a square concrete block structure with a slab top. Which sounds good and can work- but they failed to build it correctly and it fills with water., molds, and becomes a nightmare of a place to try and go into. The bats have taken it over now.
I have a cool basement. I keep a fan on in really humid periods. Simple. DUH.. JUST FIND AN EXCUSE TO BE NEGATIVE
@@cherylperkins7538 Good for you Cheryl- I on the other hand don't have a basement- nor am I upset about that or being negative. Why are you such a bitch Cheryl?
Just about said a hot dry place? You're right if that's what you were going to say. That's why there is hardly anything edible in the desert. A little bit of greasewood, a little bit of rabbit brush, some cactus which has juice that is so alkaline it will kill you in a little bit of no time. Yup. Store it in a hot dry place and it will either be spoiled or dust before you can think of eating it. Back in the day, when refrigerators were tiny and cost a whole year's wages, we had root cellars. We put canned goods and things like cabbages, beats, carrots, and potatoes and squash in there and eat off it all year long. Those things would over-summer and over winter as well. It would be getting low by the following summer, but when the crops started coming in, we'd fill it up again. We never wanted for anything. We always had a sack of beans in there, and that would tide us over in really tight times. It may not have been fine dining, but it kept us alive. You learned a few tricks such as soaking your beans over night, then changing the water and soaking them a little longer before putting them in a pot and putting them on the wood/coal burning stove for the rest of the day until supper. You'd get tired of beans after awhile, but that just made it that much better when something else was on the menu. Even as tired as I used to get of eating beans, I have to admit that I still get a hankering for them sometimes, especially if I can have them with some hot, fresh baked bread and a bit of butter. Nowadays we're kind of spoiled. We can get any food we want, even things from half way around the world. We can get strawberries in January if we're willing to pay enough. If we don't have butter we think we're deprived, and we'd better have meat at least two meals out of three, and three out of three if we want. We live in good times, and it's been good times for so long that most people don't remember when it wasn't good times. Yet we let politicians and video makers who just want more money tell us that it's bad and only going to get worse. Well I'm here to tell you that I've lived a very long and blessed life, and it's not bad, and it's not likely to get bad any time soon unless we fall for the silliness that certain politicians are trying to scare us into believing. We have it good, and the fact that we're not the only ones that have it good anymore isn't a bad thing. It's proof that our way of life works wherever it is adopted. In good times like these, how good our lives are depends mostly on us. If we have a really bad day, or a really bad run of luck, remember that the sun rises again tomorrow, and that each day you have a chance to make the lives of people who cross your path a little bit better, by giving a smile, or giving comfort, or countering untruth were ever you find it. Do your very best to be kind to others and to do no harm, and your life will be fine. I have lived a long time, and I probably won't live very much longer, but I know that life is good, and I know that your life will be good too, if you take a tiny bit of time out of your day to make the lives of others better.
To the person whom this is a reply to, You're doing a great job by pointing out that you need a cool dry place. I see the one reply that accuses you of being negative. I don't think you are. You are trying to help by sharing that little bit of knowledge. It's unfortunate that if what you say blows up someone's dreams you'll be attacked for it. But if it gets that person to thinking on down the line, or if it gets someone else thinking, then it was worth saying. You will never know if it was or wasn't, but that's not what matters. What matters is that you tried. Good job, and keep up the good work.
Just one little side note, I live in the original tornado alley. It's like it's always been, and maybe a little worse. I'm sorry to hear that it's getting worse where you are. Do what it takes to make yourselves safe. Maybe build a safe room in your house which is so sturdily built and re-enforced that a tornado can't break it. As long as you get through with your life you've got it made. The tornado may take your home and everything in it, but if you have a place to shelter safely from it, you will always have your life, and as long as you have your life, you have all that it takes to help people, and by doing so, to make your life more worth while, and therefore happy. Happiness doesn't come from money or what you have or what you don't have. It comes from within, and how you use that which is within. Never do harm, and always do kindness, and everything will be fine. Love and kindness conquers all. I hope you find a lot of it in your life, no matter how dark or how good things may get.
So interesting a report. Did not know. Am a big fan of Alabama, especially Lookout Mt.& Demopolis. Am in Louisiana wch I also love.
@@cherylperkins7538 In some places you can't have basements because the water table is too high--like Florida, the west coast in Oregon and even in the valley floor in Utah because it's so close to Utah Lake and the Great Salt Lake so lots and lots of people don't have the ability to even have basements.
She's stating a fact--not being negative.
Rice last longer too
I have a suggestion: in really tough times (when the stuff hits the fan) , can you suggest goodies for kids that have a long shelf life. I literally have candy and cookies stored for my grandkids; keeping kids happy in tough times ain’t easy.
Really
I've never seen a candy cane go bad.
Freeze Dried Ice Cream Bars…And A Lot Of Other Freeze Dried Candies
Seriously in times of emergency, potential starvation, survival and power outage, I doubt candy is top of the list. I just don’t get your 1st 🌍 question 🤦♂️
@@shazzabbegg9934 I’m glad I’m prepared to help the helpless in times of trouble, and if helping them means I can also make them happy, I will not be afraid.
Oats Groats are the best for long shelf life. Takes longer to cook which is why oats are crushed or cut.
galing talaga ng eat bulaga casts
I have a dozen supermarkets and abut twenty artisan food shops with a fifteen minute walk. The only storage I have is a small fridge for milk.
Do you have any food in your home if something were to happen and you could not leave your house? They have lots of versions of milk that doesn't require a fridge. evaporated milk in cans, Dollar store shelf milk, powder milk etc. I have also seen people can and freeze dry milk. Point being if you got really sick and couldn't leave your house or you lost your income and couldn't afford to go to a store or a natural disaster happen and none were open would you still be able to eat? I have stores within a mile of my house however in the winter due to living in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan we can get snow overnight and be snowed in. So until we are plowed out we have to have stored food.
@@rachaelsupadventures I do have food. I have bacon, eggs, some bread and currently a nice piece of roast pork shoulder. But I live in central London, and believe me, if something happens that stops me leaving my home, food will be way down on my list of priorities.
So I don't spend my life in paranoid anticipation. I enjoy each day as it comes in the sure and certain expectation that tomorrow will be just fine.
@@donepearce Actually it is not a paranoid thing it is a practical thing. It is so easy in our modern world to get caught up in the cycle of buying our food one week at a time or even daily. The Bible says that it is wise to be prepared for the unexpected events that happen to all of us. Any one of us can experience job loss, health emergencies, natural disasters and the list goes on and on. Having some extra supplies on hand could mean the difference between your family eating, or going hungry. I have a friend who got pregnant and was so sick she could not work and then her husbands job closed. She had put food and supplies away and they kept her family fed until they were able to get back on their feet. Being prepared is just that being practical.
@rachaelsupadventures the bible says whatever is convenient for the reader at that moment. Jesus says pay no thought to tomorrow. Give away everything. So forget the bible. It is a piece of useless garbage.
And yes, prepping is a symptom of paranoia. It is unnecessary and damaging to the psyche, engendering as it does a permanent mood of distrust. This is a very sad way to exist. I can't call it living.
I@donepearce: I'm surprised at how quickly you've forgotten the empty shelves and panic buying there was during COVID. It'd be a good idea to have at least some foods stored at home especially more than the little bit of meat and eggs you have which, if you are lucky might last a week. Your government was very autocratic during the pandemic. There was a big shortage of toilet paper, butter and yeast for baking and for the past few years there is still a baby formula shortage because factories were contaminated and had to be shut down.
You might be in a soup kitchen line along with hundreds of other hungry people like during the Great Depression. If watery soup and humiliation is something that won't concern you, that's good.
To be honest, your feelings about food storage and food being such a low priority seem a bit cavalier because you are assuming everything will always be the same. The UK could be invaded by Russia which is already threatening war in Europe so you should maybe be a bit more prepared--especially after what your country went through during WWII. Germany is now preparing for war with Russia.
If you don't have a lot of room you can store boxes of food storage under beds and on the floors of your closets. If you don't think you'll need it for an emergency, at least consider it an inflation hedge. You can't guarantee that prices will always be moderate. Look at Venezuela.
I know most people in the UK have dinky refrigerators from what I'd seen on television so you'll have to store foods that won't need to be refrigerated.
As someone whose husband lost his job, was underemployed and then a student over a 3 or 4 year period in the recession of the early to mid 1980s we had food storage to lean on. I also gleaned fruits and veggies and canned them. Fortunately I had a kind neighbor who let me use her pressure canner because we were too poor to buy one.
I love listen to this stuff. 🍯
This guy's got a good voice.
