This list will cost about $400 for about a months worth of food! I adapted my list from this website link below! This is a start that can be added too and changed whatever way you wish eg instead of powdered milk I got tinned carnation milk (this is not as much as the powdered milk will provide but will have a longer shelf life). www.backdoorsurvival.com/20-items-to-kick-start-your-food-storage-plan/

Cool. Nice to see it's actually reasonably balanced too!
We all make our choices when it comes to storage. I'm a big fan of something similar to this in that I keep 3-8 weeks of really normal foods, with some long life milk/soy [wife] which is really handy when I forget to get milk. Of course it saves you money because you buy in bulk whenever it's on special.
From previous experience, past that and you start tripping over used by dates and throwing out food. So going beyond, it gets hardcore, super basic foods that last a decade that you can put away a whole years worth for $650. It occurs to me that you've absolutely have to have 90 days for anyone you plan on having and preferably past a year and this seems the logical way to do it.

I really like the simplicity of this list! I think having the basics and then using whatever you grow (if possible) is a good way to go, so the need to store up seeds is important.

Good post Rem! Most can foods will last up to 5 years past best by date!
