Probably tbh but I don't like powdered milk very much

I've never had it before. But in a time of crisis, I'd definitely drink it

Better than nothing

At least not the kinds I've had

I understand that perspective but definitely make a habit of trying something before you decide to stockpile it

You will want to kill yourself if you have to eat shit you hate every day to stay alive

I mostly got stuff that I already eat or would like to eat

I'm a little worried about the 20 lb bag of rice I got though. I realized after the fact that I shouldn't have gotten the walmart brand rice since, idk, it could have a lot of lead or arsenic or w/e in it

I already wash my rice very well before cooking--would that be enough to get any contaminants out of them?

mfw I eat Walmart brand rice

<:really:673419076969824256>

Why would it have arsenic in it? @antiquarian

I have like 50 fucking pounds of it stored <:cryjak:673420780565954560>

It aint as bad as in my country dude

we got a brand called Rico shit has plastic pieces that look like rice

People have gotten sick over here

PR?

Yea man

How has that not been recalled

People have stopped buying it

But it says in the label that it does come with it

>yet people still bought it

Its weird man

Cause the rice comes from either the USA or China

And the chinese one was tested to have bits of plastic

Of course

Anyone know about the actual shelf life of these pouches? Like past the best by date
I'm thinking about not storing the cans anymore since I don't really eat them but I'll be eating these as I get into hiking

@Mr. Verboten thank you

No problem fam

I'm thinking about phasing the fruit juice out of my pantry and replacing it with #10 cans of powdered Gatorade mix like pic related
The drink mix will store longer and more compactly than the juice, and would be nice to have if I ever got sick to restore electrolytes. ||I shouldn't even be drinking fruit juice anyway||
Also the mix is way more cost effective than the pre-bottled stuff
Thoughts?

whats the price compared to marketed long storage drink mix?

@Vajjsmasher $5.38 for a 3.2 pound can

Augason Farms apple drink mix was about $17 for a 5.9 pound can depending on the seller

i'd say stock up on gatoraid but supplement with a couple of cans designed for long term storage in case it doesnt work out. though i cant expect it to go bad

yeah same

@everyone Sorry about the ping(s), but to anyone who downloaded my Excel spreadsheet, there is a HUGE flaw in the math of it that skews the nutritional data for fats (my data literally put my inventory as being 78% fats; that's now down to 22% after the correction). If you downloaded that spreadsheet and want the bugfixed version just ping me
