OK....Our preps are for long term storage, we do not eat out of them..I know i'm going to catch hell for this, but we don't...Our current diet plans are not in sync with long term storage foods...Now, we have eaten these in the past, no issues, there, and if SHTF, will eat them too, no issues there...
What i did, is stored my preps in 5 gal buckets and non descript moving boxes, all numbered...The 5 gal buckets hold rice n beans, cans of tune..did you know that a 5 gal bucket will hold 77 cans of tuna in oil? and a can opener...:thumb:
Then, i inventoried and documented the preps in a notebook and excel spreadsheet:
so, box: #6 has:
qty type size per can serving total servings
4 cans sweet potatoes/300 oz/4 serv/16
2 cans pears/29 oz/6 serv/12
2 cans peaches/29oz/7 serv/14
1 can pineapple/20oz/5 serv/5
11 can mixed veggies/15oz/33
1 can carrot/14oz/3/3
2 can chk noodle/18oz/2serv/4
5 can corn/15oz/3serv/15
I have 10 moving boxes full of goods, plus the 5 gal buckets, all labeled too..
They sit on the shelves, only the numbers showing....
I also have blue tubs with mre's and misc camping items....The yellow bucket is my dogs kibble....

Good luck mate...
