This list may not include all that you want and some may have special needs. This is just a common starting place or guide to go by. Food should be stored in a cool dry place between 40 - 70 degrees to ensure longer lasting. Water is most important. It make no sense if you had food but died for lack of water. Solar powered night lights may be found at Walmart for $10 that work well. Weapons may be needed to keep what you have. We are preparing for the worst but expecting the best. Don't forget ammo. It may also be necessary to hide your stock from "Search and Seizure" protocols set by the government. It is best to give a little and keep the best while complaining. It is best to watch for sales on these items. Eggs may be heavily coated with mineral oil and stored ina cool dark place and can last 12 months.
