Obviously, being prepared with some extra food on hand (and water, and power, and some other tools and gear of various sorts) is a wise decision. It’s always better to have and not need, rather than to need and not have!

However, too many people begin their prepping activities in a haphazard fashion, and wind up purchasing too much stuff, too little stuff, or stuff they’ll never really use.

There are advantages to both methods, and disadvantages to both. In and of itself, neither method is necessarily “better” than the other; it’s more a matter of which method provides the preferred result for a given food type. The key is to remove moisture from within the food itself, then package that food in an oxygen-free environment.

A few years ago, an article implied that the cost of freeze dried food is too expensive to be a viable method of food storage. The article was based on a study that compared various methods of food storage. I disagree with them, and I contend that their conclusions are not based on sound logic.

We want to share with you a simple method for calculating the quantity and cost of the food you and your family may need over a given time frame. We call it “2000 Calorie Days.” And you don’t need a slide rule to do the math!
