Hi, new here. Glad to see some like minded people. I purchased some 5 gallon containers and thinking I should put smaller amounts of different items in there rather then a full bucket of beans or whatever. I can't possible eat 5 gallons of beans without it going bad or causing an EPA scare. What do you normally put in a 5 gallon container?

Hello from Georgia!! Here's what I put in my 5 gal buckets:
Double zip-lock baggies:
1 cup sugar
1 cup salt
1 cup dried onion
1/2 cup Italian seasoning
1/2 cup garlic
1/4 cup Cajun seasoning
1/4 cup cinnamon
I use the 1 gallong mylar on the below:
2 ea 5-pound bags of rice
2 ea 5-pound bags of beans
1 ea 3-pound bag of rolled oats.
I'm pretty much a newbie. If you look at my thread around 'Newbie packed first buckets' or something like that you'll see how I came to that combination."Common sense might be common but it is by no means wide spread." Mark TwainComment

Hello
Thanks for the information. One of my issues is that I'm not a chef or much of a baker and look at flour and just sort of scratch my head what to do with it. I guess if I'm going to bake then, I need to learn now. Otherwise, I want to stock things I actually know how to cook when the time comes. I want to know it is things I actually like. I will be looking at the forums gathering information so that I can best prepare ahead.Comment

Another Howdy from Oklahoma! Lots of info and sharing here. Jump in and enjoy!Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free.
