OK, I'm a hardcore prepper who preps for a long term crisis. I have lots of food in long term storage... plastic pails with mylar bag and oxygen absorber. Most of my stores I've put up myself, mainly using foods bought in bulk from Sam's Club. IMO, there is no better way to store food than in this fashion. It is very economical, especially when compared to the prepared freeze dried stuff. It all will last 30+ years. It is very easy to do yourself especially if you go ahead & get a good sealer for the mylar.
I keep large store of all sorts of goods, such as rice, beans, oats, sugar, salt, pasta, etc. But my number one store by far is hard wheat from Emergency Essentials. I like that they package as I do with the mylar & oxygen absorber. I know lots of preppers start with beans & rice but I believe in storing, as best I can, what I currently eat. Most folks, including me, don't eat rice or beans every week much less every day. The one thing that most folks eat every day is wheat product, be it bread, pasta, biscuits, pancakes, cake, cookies or whatever. Flour has a rather short shelf life so that doesn't work for me. But the wheat berries store for over 30 years and when ground in a grinder, make healthy whole wheat flour.
Anyone else store wheat?
