When it comes to collecting food storage we often imagine, with a deep sigh, stacks and stacks of unground wheat, powdered milk, dried onions, and bottled venison. We lose our motivation to continue gathering and growing our emergency supply simply because it all seems to be SOO unappetizing! But really, it doesn’t have to be this way. If, heaven forbid, we are ever required to live off the food that is piled up in our basements and under our bed frames we will be sadly disappointed by our selection UNLESS we get a little creative. We all know the value of storing sugar. Sugar is needed for baking bread and other life sustaining meals but it is also a great way to provide a hungry body with a burst of energy. I mentioned in my post about 72 hour kits that I carry a gallon size zip top bag of plain white sugar, along with a few packets of Kool-aid because the sugar can do wonders to sustain life in an emergency. Sugar is IMPORTANT!! But are 5 gallon buckets the only way to go? I imagine a situation something like this.
