Especially since precious metals are being held artificially low through ETFs that print to bring prices doen and unallocated pools in vaults where the same silver bars are sold to countless people since very few customers actually demand physical delivery.
I looked into those "disaster foods" that are being sold, and it seemed that they were mostly carbohydrate "meals". I didn't see a lot (maybe none) of protein in those "meals". Considering the price of those kits, you would be better to just buy a lot of rice and other staples, along with canned food, and even if you have to toss them after two years, you could buy another supply; even most canned foods last much longer than the expiration date, they just lose some aesthetic and possibly flavor quality.
Anything is better than nothing. But I agree rice and beans are the best bet. Toss some bottles of honey in it . Sugars salts . Bullion cubes for flavor. They might get stale but soak it in water and its good as new.
I feel thats the plan. Look at everything going on. Buy physical metals now and food storage so the transition isn't so bumpy.
