Survival foods are typically thought of as easily-stored edibles with long shelf lives to be eaten in case of dire straits for the sake of survival. Many families choose to build long-term food storage pantries for possible emergencies, from natural disasters (tornadoes, hurricanes) to food shortages to civil unrest.
Some basic survival foods include:
- Freeze-dried meals
- Bulk grains, such as wheat and rice
- Coconut oil, olive oil, lard
- Beef jerky
- Dried fruit (raisins)
- Roasted nuts
- Canned goods
Determining which survival foods to buy and store is a matter of your situation, the number of people in your household and personal taste. For some, a ready-made survival kit with freeze dried meal portions, water rations, flashlight, foil blanket and radio will provide adequate peace of mind for most short-term emergencies. Other families prefer to have a year's worth of food stored for times of necessity, and eat from and rotate their food stores on a regular basis.
