A pantry can be more than just a place you stock canned goods and other non-perishables: it can be your ticket to being prepared for any emergency that might come your way.
Some people think they can get by with a few extra gallon jugs of water and some canned vegetables, but is that what you want your family to live off of if you get grounded at home for a few days? Stocking up now to prepare for tomorrow is crucial, and you’ve gotta be thorough about it.
Understanding the best foods to keep on hand and how you might be limited in terms of power or cooking can mean the difference between a successful prepper’s pantry and your family of grumbling stomachs.
