What are the others?
Do you remember on Lost, when they met the others? Meet the food storage others. Simply put, the others are the nice-to-have comfort foods. These foods are either very expensive or do not sustain life (but they sure make life a little sweeter). One of the biggest mistakes people make when building their food storage is buying cases and cases of brownie mix first. Don’t let this be you (aside from the fact that you can make brownies out of your basic supply and those canned mixes are outrageously expensive), the others shouldn’t be bought until you have the basics.
Some items we consider to be others are:
- cheese
- meat
- sweets
- extra fruits and vegetables
