kit, that you have some food in your kitchen to use along with the kit: some canned fruits and vegetables, some frozen vegetables, condiments, spices, vinegar, etc. These food items will not contribute much in the way of protein, fat, and carbohydrates, but they make the food taste better and increase the vitamin, mineral, and fiber content of your meals.
In addition to whatever food you store for prepping purposes (in a basement, for example), you should keep your freezer, refrigerator, and pantry well-stocked. This will help you through short-term food-related SHTF scenarios with a greater variety of food choices.
Which disasters might disrupt or interrupt the food supply? That is the subject of my next post. Stay tuned.
