Beans and rice keep for years, you can transport realitivaly easy, just add water you got protein and starch. Don't depend on the electric to stay on. Canned meat is great too, spaghetti and more ,, all very cheap to obtain. Try to keep a years supplies for your family. I've even thought about having 2-4 months of canned stuff because that's about how long I think the people who have nothing will survive, don't want people smelling food cooking for awhile, learned that from Bosnians.
