Your best choice – peanut butter!
The most obvious item to start with is drinking water.
Store at least 1 gallon of water per person per day, plus enough for pets. That’s not as much as it sounds.
You may lose some of it in the disaster itself, if it falls, the container is crushed, or one of your water storage areas can’t be accessed due to flood/fires/unstable buildings.
Where to store:
Do NOT buy or use the “soft plastic” gallon and 2.5 gallon containers; we found that they fail over time by creasing at the corners and tearing open. Even name brand 2.5 gallon containers from Arrow seem to fail after about 2 years, especially when stacked.
