Getting Your Food Storage

Three easy steps to getting your food storage.

[@dopeheathen]

This lady is way ahead of the curve. 11 years ago...nice.

[@hunggrapes5532]

Naw, she looks more like a binge buy or hoarder, lots of people have coupons and 10/20/30 at a time and stock pile, even if they don't need it, i have seen storage barns, garages lined with shelves and basement with storage on every wall, that is crazy because much of the stuff would be beyond shelf life and would have to be throw out, what you need is information how granny stocked the pantry for the winter, i rmember my granny canned veggies, soups and meat for the winter and keep them in the cellar !

[@justmissjamey]

And I bet a lot of that went to waste....shes in Utah, so unless shes part of the mormon cult, most of that will go to waste. Like all the powdered milk etc.

[@hunggrapes5532]

@@justmissjamey Right, grandma used to can meats and veggies from their fall harvest, to get ready for the winter months, much the stuff is good for a year and sufficient for emergency's !

[@kevinrehberg8758]

Truth be told, you really don't need to have much more than a years supply..Worst case scenario...SHTF... nearly everyone who isn't prepared would be dead in a few months anyway...You would need more than food and water too..Knowledge to rebuild.. tools to accomplish it... because whats the sense in being able to feed oneself for a year only to starve afterwards??

[@zinnia3684]

[@foodstoragedeals]

I apologize for the confusion. It is one gallon per person per day. It is recommended to store 2 weeks worth of water for drinking/cooking/cleaning, etc. This would equal 14 gallons for a two week period. I apologize if I said 14 gallons per person per day--hey, you can't have too much water :)

[@rspeed3]

You're right, never is enough water, food, medicines, guns and ammunition.

[@ROSAVALDE1]

Why all this storage? I can see a month or two but this is a lot.

[@seekeroftruth9900]

@@rhwinterestThey are prepared for any amount of time they might have to do with out a grocery store, assuming they are growing, harvesting, and canning their produce as well. We are heading into a grand solar minimum so we need to prepare for the fact that the weather is going to be shifty as well as colder than normal temps and strange weather that will keep food from being grown as easy, hence food shortages. Yes the schiff is about to hit the fan for those who aren't prepared. Right now they are giving supplements to people who receive free or reduced lunches in school, so that means there are ppl who are doing runs on the stores as we speak. Hope you got your stockpile. Will pray for everyone. Be safe y'all. Victory gardens/bucket gardens everywhere....

[@cindybonem2412]

Ok everyone relax, she is obviously nervous. One gallon of water per person per day. That means for drinking and washing yourself. This is a tip for you, don't toss out laundry jugs, fill empty laundry detergent jugs with water and store them, then if TSHTF you have soapy water to wash out your underwear with.

[@thinkingofothers353]

thank you Mrs. Cindy , when in need it will be there...helping OTHERS now will turn out helping each others in time of need.....information and knowledge thank all you ladies.

[@1flash3571]

Does the water have to be distilled? Since water does go bad even with the detergent eventually if it has bacteria.

[@misfitvillain1845]

Flash357 Cindy was just talking about using it for washing clothes with. It should be fine. A mixture of water and detergent, in a closed off bottle, in a cool place without sunlight is not a great place for bacteria to start growing in. For drinking water you shouldn't use this water at all. Using this method will just greatly reduce the amount of drinking water you will use for other tasks. For your drinking water I'd always recommend boiling it for a couple minutes. It might not get the hard metals out that way, but atleast the bacteria are that.

[@ohioladybug7390]

We fill laundry bottles and 2 liter bottles. We have already used them a couple times when storms knocked out the electric. We have a well because we live in the country. We used them to flush the toilets and wash our hands.

[@Cromwell218]

Good idea

[@wb5mgr]

Next Tip... Buy all spices that you can whole. Whole spices hold their potency much better than preground. All you need to grind them is a cheap electric or manual coffee grinder. Whole spices can last years and years. Like your video, nice setup u have going.

[@ohioladybug7390]

What a beautiful food storage pantry. My hubby said shame on you for sharing because he has more items on his honey do list 😉. We turned our formal living room into a pantry. I garden and can and feel it very necessary to plan ahead. My FoodSaver has a jar sealer and I love it. Thanks for the great video. I will check out your website.

Another thing to remember is when storing food store inside the house in a cool dark place not in the Attic or garage or a shed outside also remember never store any type of cleaning products or any chemicals above your food always keep your food and other chemicals separate so you don't get cross-contamination and always store food that your family enjoys eating

This is absolutely over the top and going to waste if your not careful type stuff. Reality is that yeah it seems nice to horde all of this, but then to actually use it, while bringing more stuff in, while not having anything go bad or expire is a legit issue here.

[@CornerTalker]

"If you ever had to eat out of your food storage" - follow instead the concept of an expanded pantry: Eat what you store and store what you eat.

[@Ms.Byrd68]

Totally agree. Have a 'working' pantry! Don't store everything thinking it will last forever! Some things will when properly stored, other things have to be 'rotated'! If you want FOREVER food buy those foods DESIGNED to store for 10, 20, 30 years or more and stockpile those...

You have to do your own research for Shelf Life longer than that but WWII MREs were still good when the Army decided to get rid of them in the 70s.

I live in FL and we just had Irma cruise on by! I was able to stay in my house but lost electric for 7 days. Within a week before Irma's arrival, the stores were packed with panicked people for supplies, mainly water. Me on the other hand started prepping my home more for long term due to the Political race that was going on, starting about 2 years ago. Everything is ok now! :) Due to having a large generator I was able to cook with no problems. Don't ever keep plastic water jugs for long term, they will burst! I had 6 of the burst and shrink up the plastic gallon jug. I use glass only, that will last a life time. I used 1/2 gallon ball jars and prefilled VOSS glass water plus I have 24 empty glass water holders from Amazon. I also have a small refrigerator that will store 120 bottles of water. I already had food storage using my home canned items and mylar bags. Food needs to be stored in food grade containers. NOT plastic bins. I do not mean to discredit this video but it was done in 2009 and things have changed. I think you did a beautiful job on your storage room but it just needs to be updated a bit. I would love to see an updated video from you. People be prepared! The panic all over FL was overwhelming! Irma is nothing compared to what could ever happen in this crazy World. Irma was a great eye opener for most of the people. Keep your food storage private! God Bless...

[@saundrajohnson1571]

@Himself Lee I've heard this said numerous times lately, and I can understand it in these current times, even though I never had kids. I'd like to offer a suggestion, however... My mother grew up in The Depression. Therefore, she learned the value of raising, canning & storing food. When she married & moved from farm to city, she traded root cellar for freezer and learned to stock up during sales, and to cook extra now to eat later during leaner times. When I came along, as an only child, I was my mother's shadow. I tagged along in the grocery store, unloaded groceries, and became Mother's Helper in the kitchen. Every step of the way, she used these times as teaching opportunities. She never gave up her thrifty ways. And since it happened throughout my lifetime, it just seemed normal to me, so I never felt any need to brag to friends. To be honest, I was well into adulthood before I realized not everyone lived the way we did. Her skills as a homemaker meant we would never go without clothing, and we would never go hungry. I thank God for my mother, and the very natural way she taught me these same very valuable skills. 🙏🏻

[@josepholivo1722]

Great information and awesome pantry. Your family and friends are fortunate to have someone who is concerned and thinking about their well being when “stuff” hits the fan. A reliable formula for average water intake is your body weight divided by 2 is how many ounces of water you will need to drink per day, more activity increases the amount you need to replenish your fluids. Keep in mind your electrolytes and keeping them balanced with your water intake.

@@LaMaiStyle I believe that's way too much and also think some of that stuff went or will go to waste. It's a great idea to have a few things on hand, but the reality is that you are still bringing more in, and have to use it and keep track of dates and making sure things get used on time and not shoved in the back or use new vs stuff there etc. Ao while the idea seems like a great one, the reality of using/keeping track etc is not realistic for the majority of people. Plus, people in tight living spaces like New York barely have walk in studio apartments where you have to sleep/ live and pay out the butt for one room and a small bathroom, this wouldnt work for them.

@Archer46176 True with amount. I have see of late that the classic 8 of 8oz a day has been brought down somewhat like 5-6per day. The Berkey filter would be fantastic way to go to extend the supply.

Wow! Very well organized and very thoughful in ever detail. RESPECT!!! One question remains: How do you store foods that are rich in vitamins? What I see in these shelfs is tons of carbohydrates, sugar, fat and almost all ntrients a human being needs. But only very little vitamines. Canned fruits (as you probably know) are tasty and rich in sugar but don't retain the vitamines very well. Freeze dried fruits actually are a very good option but they are very expensive. So, how do do it?

Hey thanks for the video. It is really nice to get ideas from other people. Also a lot of people don't realize that Mormons are required to work towards and keep a one year supply of food in case of job loses, harvest problems and what not.

[@GGMEHD]

Covid 19 brought me here. At this time is is May 3rd 2020. People are in the streets protesting to allow cities to be opened. Meanwhile my city Washington DC is hitting its highest number of deaths per day. The weather is getting warmer and people are starting to feel the need to be outside. Along with this it is expected that the winter will see a spike in Covid Cases possibly much worse than what the United States experienced in March and April. This will lead to the possibility of more supply chains shutting down and making certain foods scarcity to cause people to panic buy at the same time causing grocery stores to be out of stock of essential foods. This will mean that people will possibly have to share their food resources with each other. Time will tell how 2020 ends.

[@saundrajohnson1571]

Precisely why stocking up now would be well-advised. I don't mean panic-hoarding, God forbid! I mean, buy on sale... Instead of buying one, buy two. Follow your stores weekly circulars. If they have a BOGO sale, take advantage of it. If they sell 10 for $10, either buy 10 of one item, or five of one thing & five of something else. Following this practice will enable you to begin a good stock of a variety of foods, while still leaving plenty on the shelves for everyone else. You'll save money, too. Not only are you buying everything on sale, but grocery prices rarely - if ever actually go down.

I have a “ hinky” feeling that we will have a food shortage this coming fall, either directly because of Covid but also because some one is really trying to “stick it to “ the working poor of America. Winter is always hard for one reason or another and we have no control over Mother Nature. I already saw a projection in the area that we live, and it showed...”Polar Vortex! “ It is what it is ...or isn’t!

@sambass951 I think she meant to say 14 gallons of water per person stored. 14 gallons is a two week storage for one person. I hope this helps.

well done!! thank you!

[@Devin_Milford]

That is why rotation is so important. First in first out.

Impressive!

actually peanutbutter and ramen is a great mix. it's what i always have in my pantry. add some hot sauce, soy sauce, garlic powder and sesame oil and you have great satay ramen

[@rosalinawebster8826]

Add any cooked meat to the ramen, any veggie, eggs and enjoy!

[@theresam1649]

That's what I thought, a little peanut butter makes a nice sauce with other ingredients.

[@saundrajohnson1571]

Ahh, thank you, Ms Mopsi! I have never been a huge fan of ramen, but I always keep some on hand as a quick, cheap pantry meal. Your suggestions might make it downright edible. I love satay! 😃👍

[@saundrajohnson1571]

@@rosalinawebster8826 Also a good idea. Thanks!

Did u vacuum seal or use mylan bags for the food in your bins?

[@dropexpectations12]

Just curious... Do you eat the dry foods that could be expiring ? Like all that powder milk and mayo ? Thanks!

I have read that sprouted wheat has most vitamins. I would definitely have some fd vegetables in the food storage but I would also have seeds to sprout. That is how I think health would best maintained.

[@seekeroftruth9900]

yes sprouts, or microgreens are more nutrient dense than just growing them to fruition, but you have to know how to grow and how things grow in your area to be able to harvest more seed to save...If you aren't gardening you should be.

Because there are so few people like us that are Preparing, our homes will be a target when things get really really bad. All i will say is be able to protect yourself your family and your property.

Mice can get into those bags of wheat. Just saying so where do you keep it other than those bags. I know some about food storage but dont want mice in my food. Thanks.

Lovely storage ❤️

[@deborahpettit6127]

You have a list that tells how much per person that supposed to have salt water sugar and flour for one person for a year if you could would you please send me the list I greatly appreciate it thank you so much and I loved your video

[@emlerron]

Awesome video. Your food storage area is incredible. One suggestion about using plastic totes, I wouldn't underestimate the ability of a rodent, he could easily chew through the plastic. You guys have it together. You have a top notch food storage cellar. lol.
