Bare-Bones Basics

Bare-bones basics have two strong appeals when you look at them strictly from a preparedness perspective: (1) these foods will sustain life if they're all you have to eat, and (2) they have a long shelf life, so if you aren't willing or able to work them into your regular diet, you can still store them for a future time of need and they'll wait for you without constant care. A supply of bare-bones basic foods is a good place to start your home food storage program, but be sure to add some variety too.
