"A typical daily menu of a minimum 2000 calories per person per day using ingredients from the list (and no power): • Breakfast: Sweet cold-soaked oats mixed with a handful of crushed mixed nuts, a spoonful of honey, and a splash of fruit juice. • Lunch:Savory biscuit crunch. 1 can of chopped ham/spam sliced down and eaten on cream crackers with a dab of chutney. • Dinner:Pub-style cold hash. 1 can of corned beef mashed together with 1 can of drained new potatoes, half a can of sweetcorn, a splash of olive oil, and black pepper. Sliced tinned pineapple for dessert. • Snacks: 3 Granola bars and a handful of nuts." I think during a global emergency, which is hopefully a zombie apocalypse, we can forgo a meal or 2 and still survive. | |||

"I totally agree with the poster of this thread. We are headed for some very tough times in the next 12 months, and need to be prepared for the loss of power. That is the thing that will bring ppl crashing down. Sit and think about it. Without power, how long can you last. What we are not being told, is how many times our critical systems have be nearly compromised recently. I for one, have already planned ahead." Pfft let's check back in next year and see | |||

"Why all the coffee and teabags? With no power you'd have to burn wood to heat the water." Yeah. Or have a camping stove or something. I think it's a good idea to have a decent stock of basics in sure, rotate them if needed. Teabags and coffee with no means to heat the water seem a bit... | |||

"You packed enough Spam to put me off it for life but forgot the basics. No painkillers, no Imodium, and no antibiotics? Enjoy dying of infection from a rusty can lid. No toothpaste or soap means you'll end up loving the BO smell with bleeding gums. Let's not forget the feminine products nothing says apocalypse survival like enduring days of discomfort with just sanitizer and hope. You have power banks, sure, but no portable gas stove or matches? So enjoy your lukewarm beans because, apparently, warmth is for people who don't want to be miserable. It's not survival it's just expensive misery though I know your only trying to help Ditch the Spam, get some pasta, and add alcohol, board games, and a pack of cards. It’s more enjoyable than playing I Spy with my little eye, something beginning with CBT…..It's not the kink, though it may be more enjoyable than surviving on your rations. It's a corned beef tin. x " We're talking a few days, not an apocalypse. | |||

"And then what happens after 30 days? This is the COVID panic all over again-buy all the bread, pasta and bag rolls you can. A fear narrative is being spread again. As we saw in the past, people can be controlled and manipulated by fear. " Maybe is a plot so that they can double or triple the price of everything again | |||
