See, you say we always have that, but if you go to a store in my area when a hurricanes on the way you’d think the entire city hadn’t seen food in a week...
It’s really weird- like you can’t find a water bottle for a week before, people line up at 6 in the morning to buy water- HAVE THAT AT YOUR HOUSE ALREADY. One of our beds has nothing but water under it perpetually for this exact thing + Sawyer.... get some cases and just store them at your house! (Cheaper per Oz by the bottle and easy to store than the gallons where I am)
Do you have suggestions for the best non-perishable meals/food to buy?? Most of what my husband and I eat is refrigerated/frozen so I want to stock up tomorrow just in case
Just my experience from living in Florida and dealing with hurricanes - bottled water/a good water filter is invaluable.
Assume you will not have electricity - no refrigeration/freezing and no microwave. Canned vegetables and soups. Bars. If you have a grill or firepit you can boil water on, dry rice and beans can also be good.
Was it specifically for the next ten days or for ten days starting on a specific date? Also, context a bit.
You should always have at least ten days of food. Get it if you don't, regardless.
Down in hurricane country, that you wouldn't have a few weeks of food on hand would be completely baffling. We always have that.

The food you have for ten days is usually non-perishable. Lots of times people buy out perishable foods right before, because they taste better.
Not these people lol
Just south of Louisville KY here, sounds like what happens when snow is in the forecast. Even the smallest amount makes ppl flip the fuck out.

I've got the food. I'm always packed for food, batteries, supplies etc. I wanted specifics on the post.

These preps are good to have no matter what. Chance favors the prepared mind.
