Prepare your ark pt 2

Okay, I know Feb is more then halfway over. Sorry, this month is crazy. here is your check list for your emergency kits

Add a can opener to your kit
Add 2 cans tuna fish/ canned meat to your kit
Add 1 large roll of paper towels to your kit
add 1 blanket to your kit.

Also, Since Feb is a month filled with all kinds of sweets you should also add sweeteners to your food storage

FEBRUARY ( food storage check list)
Suggested items: White sugar, brown sugar, powdered sugar, honey, corn syrup, maple syrup, molasses, Kool_aid,and jello.

A #10 can from the dry pack cannery is about 6lbs of sugar. If you want to have storage for 3 months for 1 person, you might buy:
4 #10 cans of sugar from the cannery(24lbs)
or 25 lbs of sugar from the store.


hints: to know how much extra to buy of the other suggested items, figure out how much you go through in a year. the next time you open a new container write the date on it and see how long it takes you to use it up. then you will know approximately how many to buy to last a year.


Kool-aid is good because it can help make your stored water taste better. Be sure to store water in proper containers. And also have sterilization item too.
