Calculate Your Emergency Food Storage

⚙ Storage & Rotation Tips

• Store food in a cool, dark, dry location — ideal temp 50–70°F (10–21°C).
• Rotate your stock: use oldest items first (FIFO — First In, First Out).
• Keep a manual can opener accessible at all times.
• Store water in food-grade containers; replace every 6–12 months.
• Add a water filter (e.g., LifeStraw, Sawyer Squeeze) as backup purification.
• Label all containers with purchase date and expiration date.
• Include comfort foods and variety — morale matters in emergencies.
• Don't forget cooking fuel (propane, butane, wood) if power is out.
• Keep a list of your stored items and update it regularly.
• Consider dietary restrictions and allergies when planning your supply.
