From Mrs. Cog's Corner
Questioning Everything...
Should you store food for the long haul? Which foods should you stock up on? How long can certain foods be stored for? What are the drawbacks of stocking quantities of food for the long term? Can these long term foods offer real nutritional value? Are there foods that are affordable now that may not be in the future?
