What are your go-to long shelf life survival foods for prepping?

I found milk powder that lasts 15 years, otherwise I like canned tuna and beans

Powdered milk is a solid start 🥛 I always stash dried lentils, rice, and pasta; they’re cheap, filling, and last for years. Canned tomatoes, tuna, sardines, and beans are great for protein and flavor. Peanut butter, honey, oats, and salt are fantastic energy and seasoning staples.

Reminds me of camping in the Alps, living mostly on rice, lentils, and tinned fish for a week 😄

I don't exactly prep, I find the whole idea rather silly. But I have a few kilograms of rice and pasta, a few cans with vegetables and several weeks worth of mineral water.

Prepping is just like getting insurance. The difference is that it is physical and you only have to buy it once every 25 years. When I saw what happened to stores and the people that became so nasty in a big storm, I knew what a real disaster would look like and decided to take reasonable precautions. I call it physical insurance. The food can be donated near their expiration date to a food bank. The guns and ammo last forever and go up in value plus are fun to shoot. An emergency radio is good in many situations and is inexpensive.

That's where our countries, especially our potential disasters, differentiate. 🙂

Honey never spoils, and contains lots of nutrents. Jars of honey from ancient Egyptians have been found, the honey is still edible.

Stash a few jars of honey on the shelf... just in case Armageddon really does happen.

I don’t buy anything I don’t intend to eat soon
