Emergency Food

[@SmallSpaceLiving]

Great idea. Like the bags. We are really not doing much at this point with the current state. Just riding it out. Thanks for the share.

[@explorer867]

Good to here from you both 😊. Take care and have a great weekend friends.

Awesome video great idea.

Thanks Kevin, Hope this helps others. Stay safe and healthy my friend.

Useful info. I need to get a food stash built up on my boat. This will work well. Thanks

[@explorer867]

Robert, Good to see you checked this video out. Now more than ever we need to do as are ancestors did and store food for tough times that could be ahead. Mylar is one of the great ways of food storage. Like, Subscribe, Ring the bell and let others on your social media know about our channel. Remember I look forward to seeing you in the great outdoors.

Good information for long term storage. Not a bad idea. Stay safe and thanks for sharing. Debbie

Thank you Debbie. My hope is that people will benefit from this video and be able to take care of themselves and family. Stay safe out there.

Really good information and the timing is great. Nicely done!

[@explorer867]

Thank you much. Have a great week and stay well.

Excellent tutorial. Thank you :-) We were already in the process of setting up our food garden and long term food storage when this crazy hit, but I've not seen these storage bags before. Every tip helps us achieve our long term self sufficiency goals.

USA Emergency Supply is a great resource and so is Bobs Red Mill Fern. Just so you know I'm not making any money from this video😊. I like helping people. You and your family stay safe and have a good week.

@@explorer867 We love Bobs Red Mill - most of Thorn's GF flours comes from there. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and you stay safe too!

hi very cool, useful video.

[@explorer867]

Thanks for visiting and glad you enjoyed the video.

[@Toonstead]

Hello friend! What a great video.. Mylar food bags are a great thing to keep around. We use these for rice, beans, dehydrated fruits..all kinds of things. Good for a "trail mix" too! Thanks friend! Blessings!

[@explorer867]

Yes, Mylar food storage bags are a great way to store most dry goods. Stay safe friend. Thank you for your comment

[@justmona9647]

I've always kept my extra food (pasta, beans, oats) in dark jars in my pantry. I'm used to having hurricanes, tropical storms, etc this way I'm assured we have food which we enjoy no matter what

[@explorer867]

Just Mona, that's a great idea to have some emergency food. Keep safe and have a good week

@@explorer867 When I lived in Missouri I had a tendency to do things your way of sealing my food and putting it heavy plastic containers down in the basement & root cellar. In Clinton, where I lived, we were more likely to get snowed in or have the possibility of tornadoes. The cellars were a safe bet due to weather conditions. The East coast doesn't have that type of protection against weather. Y'all stay safe!!!

[@explorer867]

@@justmona9647 Will do and thank you for leaving your comments. I enjoy hearing what others do.

[@HappyPlaceCamping]

Great tips! Wonder if those machines are flying off the shelves. They should be!

[@explorer867]

Thank you for watching our channel. Good to have you here.

[@Matt.Jungfleisch]

Great presentation Explorer867. I'm curious as to why you used the hair iron to seal the bags instead of the seal a meal ? The vacuum sealer would remove the oxygen and seal the bag. Using a oxygen absorber plus vacuum pack should do the trick.

[@explorer867]

Hi Matt, the seal-a-meal is good for dealing with the plastic proprietary bags made for them. I have found through experience that the oxygen absorbers absorb the oxygen in the bag and you get a much better seal using the iron. Stay safe and healthy and thank you for your comment.

[@JurgensJourneys]

This is interesting. I have never seen this type of food storage. Looks like a good system. Do you have some kind of underground bunker to store it in?

[@explorer867]

Lol, no underground bunker. This is a easy way to store your dry goods. Thank you for watching our video and leaving me your comments. Have a Blessed day and stay healthy.

[@JurgensJourneys]

@@explorer867 Lol, wonder how it works for toilet paper ... Seriously though, I may want to look into this when things calm down, to be more prepared for next time. I never thought we would not be able to buy flour whenever we want to. It's crazy. God bless you my friend, and I do appreciate the info.

[@TheArtofRVing]

Well that better than an MRI..good info. Interesting to see the demo. Thanks. We have some videos you would like, check us out.

[@explorer867]

Will do 🤠. Thank you for watching.
