    I'll just burn all the food in front of everyone like a crazy man.

    Those big heavy cans look like the powder supplements my son has UPS deliver. And the 4-year quantity looks like the amount he's received in the last 4 years. Fucking muscleman.

    The Product Details page says 33,000 servings. The Specifications page says 30,144 servings, a 10% difference. It says 1300 calories per day, which will leave you hungry and cold enduring the nuclear radioactivity. Do arithmetic, and it means that the average serving is only 60 calories.

    25-year shelf life. 24 years from now when I open it, it's all rotten, the government's in hiding, Costco's vaporized, and the manufacturer's been out of business for 20 years, where do I complain before I starve to death?

    All I want is two weeks of food and water to bridge me if there is a natural disaster like a very bad earthquake. I don't believe there will be anything that would hinder us for longer than that. So go to Costco and buy a tub of peanut butter and a first aid kit, problem solved.

    Not in the next 25 years. But China will have to remove the U.S. obstacle by the end of the century. Today's babies will experience a nuclear war.

    That's what I have in my earthquake kit. Food (human and cat), water, basic first aid supplies, blanket. Spare glasses & contact lenses. Cash (ATMs may be out). Flashlights, batteries, matches, candles. Plus I could eat a lot of what is in my garden. Plus the stuff I can. Even more if power is on since I always have stuff in big freezer, I could eat out of it for weeks.
