BROWN RICE X DRIED BEANS X BULK NUTS - PREPPER FOOD

 A

Brown rice

Brown rice is high in calories and protein, in addition to essential vitamins

and minerals such as iron. As a dry, non-perishable meal, brown rice has a

long shelf-life making it a great survival food. Brown rice has one problem

though: generally, it needs to be boiled for several minutes. Sometimes, in a

long-term emergency where no electricity is available, the last thing you

need to do is use precious gasoline for cooking food for this duration of

time; whether or not that’s on propane, butane, or wood-burning stove. So,

for an extended survival emergency, in which you are stocking up your

pantry, “brown rice warm cereal” is likely better because it cooks in just

five to eight minutes and remains filled with vitamins and calories (one cup

of brown rice warm cereal contains 600 calories, 12 grams of protein, and

16% of the daily recommended amount of iron and is easily rationed out

into smaller quantities).

Dried beans

Kidney beans, black beans, garbanzo beans, lima beans, pinto beans, and

others are all high in calories, have a lot of protein per serving and also

contain several essential vitamins and minerals. Dried beans are available in

larger quantities than canned beans and they weigh less. The key difference

is that you need to add water and let most beans to soak for many hours

before eating. Split peas, for instance, have a shorter soak time. Split peas

are a part of the dried bean family with some of the same nutrients and

minerals. Ultimately, dried beans have long shelf lifestyles. Dried beans

will last in the trunk of your car, your office survival kit, and in your pantry

of survival meals at your property or cabin.

If you have no ability to treat water and are confronted with dehydration, it

is better to drink than die. Allow muddy water to stand until the silt settles

to the bottom. Then use your t-shirt to strain out any other particles. Be

aware of places where water may have accumulated, and prepare for

outside adventures by mastering different techniques to acquire water.#
