Mid-Term: Bulk staples like rice, oats, beans, and powdered milk in food-grade buckets. Long-Term: Freeze-dried meals in #10 cans, dehydrated fruits, and vacuum-sealed snacks for variety. Storage Tips: Store in cool, dry, dark places — avoid garages or sheds. Use mylar bags, oxygen absorbers, and vacuum sealers for extended freshness. Rotate your food ("Eat what you store, store what you eat") to prevent waste. Takeaway: Food preparedness isn’t just about stockpiling — it’s about having variety, redundancy, and a rotation plan. Challenge: Do a "food check" at home this week — how many days’ worth do you have? Are there any gaps in your supplies?
