Good video. I would like to mention a couple of things. You can in fact store imitation maple syrup indefinitely. It contains sugar/high fructose corn syrup. The other ingredients are preserved by them. My wife and I just tried some plain Mrs. Buttersworth that was 12 years old and it tasted as good as just bought. Vanilla and other extracts are tinctures. Meaning they have a smal amount of alcohol in them. Also remember that sugar can be used as an antibiotic. Sugar packed in a wound can keep infection at bay. And Vinegar needs to be the high % type as it will hold up longer. And one other item that I wouldn't consider a forever food but for 10-20 years is Canned meat products. We have eaten them that were 12 yearspadt the expiration date and they were as good ad newly purchased would be.. I've been doing this stuff for over 40 years, long before it was ever called prepping. It was a good video for sure. Thanks and good luck on your endeavors.
I store my rice and dried beans in clean, dry 2 liter soda bottles. Pack as much in them as you can with a funnel, replace the lid, and dip the lid end in paraffin wax. It works ! Still eating rice packed over 5 years ago.

Fun facts: As you mentioned, salt was used in ancient times as workers' pay. That's the source of the word 'salary', and the terms "being worth your salt" and "(they're the) salt of the earth" refer directly to how valuable salt is.
Eric Pardon me for using your comment, just wanted to add one more information to make it all complete. “Sal” means salt in latim, that’s where “sal-ary” comes from.
@@Thesamurai1999 it's price diminished as new mines were discovered, production methods improved, and distribution costs went down in the early 20th century. It's value hasn't gone down. Although refrigeration has taken one of its uses. It was the salt mining barons that benefited the most, salt was kept affordable to the masses.
@@papatorr3669 Fun fact...there is a salt mine underneath Detroit. Not for eating, but more so for the snow on the roads. Still, who would've thunk it.
Put in a couple of tablespoons in a clogged toilet and wait a couple minutes. Follow with 1-2 cups vinegar and wait 2-3 hours. Follow with boiling hot water to flush. I don't think iodine causes salt to go bad; the iodine just breaks down and becomes less viable. If you have a sinus infection, boil distilled water, let it cool to slightly warm. Take one cup water to ¼ teaspoon UNIODIZED salt and mix. Administer drops to your sinuses with an eye dropper. Disclaimer: consult your doctor if this is okay for you.

I put a small grain grater with my storage in case of lumps in salt and sugar or spices. Planning sure has helped in 2020. By the way wish you would do a segment directed at single women/widows. I’m glad my husband and I started our planning a while back, but as a widow now it’s so different. I use videos like yours to help make sure I’ve not overlook something and to reinforce the plan. It really is a change in mindset on many levels. Thanks for what you do.
Being serious here, as you go thru life find a widowed man and combine resources. I had two neighbors who lost their spouses. They sold one of the houses and set up a home in the other.
One time I got a 50 pound bag of potatoes from a mom and pop shop on a quick run. Came home sat it down and roaches scattered! I dont know how I didnt notice in the store but they were sitting on the floor. It was awful trying to get rid of them, they were even in my car! I killed as many as I could right away but I missed some and that was enough to make it a problem!! So gross!
Deep freeze, that's a below zero degrees chest freezer, not your 32 degrees refrigerator freezer. At least 3 days. In addition to everything else mentioned here, dog food is another one that can get buggy quick that needs to be frozen. Oh, and don't forget to store in a food safe container with an appropriately sized oxygen absorber.
@@Crogon 👍So many people either forget that most pet foods are made with meat, or think that it wont hurt animals, or dont care. Then you may earn heartache and loss of a valuable asset- our loved pets give us feelings of well being, lower blood pressure, and early detection of "visitors."
Don’t forget after removing from freezer to let sit at room temperature for several days so any moisture can dry out. Before packing into airtight containers.
@Carol Howard Miss Carol, will the bay leaf kill the bugs or eggs? We vacuum sealed rice and beans with a bay leaf and salt. Also I noticed that jiffy cornbread had bugs in it 1 month before expired, never seen that before.
Onlyonename. I've always wondered where those bugs come from that get into dry pastas and stuff like that if they very old. I don't ever see them coming into the house to get into the dry goods. Are the eggs in there the whole time?
I recommend spaghetti for your noodles. It's straight shape make it the least bulky to store and carry because there isn't much air between the noodles.
Just make sure that you are storing any pasta in an airtight container and not just the packaging it comes in. That's because if any weevils are accidentally introduced into your pantry, they will infest all the rest of the dry foods you have that aren't airtight. They are often brought into your home via dry dog and cat food that was infested while in the grocery store or warehouse.
@@dougearnest7590 non-pasteurized honey retains the anti-bodies and health benefits, and is a forever food. Pasteurizing it kills the good bacteria and rob it of other health benefits.

Great video. There is a trick the older folks down here in Alabama used to help shorten cooking time on dry beans. Just soak them in water overnight. Next morning, the beans will be swollen from water absorption and reduce the required cooking time dramatically.
Great tip! All hard beans should be soaked over night. Just to add to this tip, for those who have never cooked dry beans, know that you should NOT start cooking the beans in the same water they were soaked in. Always start with fresh water to cook them.
I think you're good with anything dried or powdered. Some may not last forever, but they all last a long time. Also, anything canned. Just look at those old MRE videos. As long as the can hasn't been punctured, the contents last for a very long time. Another way that alcohol comes in handy is if you've eaten something that seemed a bit off. Drink a bit of vodka immediately after and it should prevent food poisoning.
Another great video. I'm planting Sorghum next year. It's called the pancake plant since you can get a flour (with a grinder) and syrup out of it. I'm in S.C. and it will grow well in Zone 8a. Also, grow Amaranth. No matter how much food you store, you may run out of it. Learn how to garden.
Your package of beans is enough to plant about half an acre I had a package of beans in my pantry for about 15 years I planted them they were still viable seeds
@@laurabarber6697 I sprouted some beans and then dried them and had them specifically for chili because they are supposed to be easier on a person's digestion and of course cause less gas disturbance

Add 5% lugol's iodine to the medicine cabinet. It keeps forever if sealed tight. Can be used as a disinfectant, water purifier, or as a supplement. Useful in case of radiation exposure.
@@123mcgarrigle 2% Lugol's Iodine is readily available online. 5% is harder to find. You can certainly make your own Lugol's Iodine. If you search on YT you will find at least two videos on how to make it yourself at much lower cost and higher concentration, if you wish. Lugol's iodine is shelf stable indefinitely as long as it is properly stored and not contaminated.
@@123mcgarrigle It is a frightening prospect. A far more likely scenario is damage to a nuclear power plant leading to loss of containment.

Iodized salt is not going to spoil. It’s usually just potassium iodide which is itself a salt. These are stable non-organic chemicals. Most people get their iodine from iodized salt and It’s a really important micronutrient for survival. I think you saying to avoid iodized salt as a disservice and dangerous advice. But I do appreciate the video.
@@daniellebarker7667 per FDA rules (for the USA obviously), _everything_ is required to have an expiration date. Even water! So if you're talking about Morton's expiration date that might just be a lawyerly thing.
Yes, Eric, I knew that. What I am saying is that even iodized salt has a decent shelf life, so planning to do without this very important supplement is unnecessary.
Guys it is time to store foods right now, a lot of dreams and phrophetics messages on UA-cam that are warning people to store foods because of the shortage is coming starting at the end of September and the beginning of November! Family, let's prepare!

It is an awesome exclusive product for discovering how to produce an amazing bug out plan for your survival without the hard work.

Wrong. No can opener, no problem.. Rub sealed end in circular motions flat on concrete or asphalt for 10 to 30 seconds. Turn back upright squeeze can gently near the sealed end that you just rubbed and open comes the can...
You mentioned instant coffee. Ground coffee will also last for many years as long as you keep it dry until use. Along with honey, consider molasses. The sugar content is so high that no harmful bacteria will grow in it.
@@tjbelcher3144 Black-strap molasses is high in nutrients, but tastes like crap (to me). My dad had a 12 year old can of it and made my brother and me consume some.
corn starch is also used for clotting blood. Personal experience, after my dog was attacked by a bobcat. the dog had an arterial wound actually shooting blood across the room. Called the vet and he said pack it with corn starch. Took probably half a pound pressed into the wound however, the dog was up and running around the entire next day. took her to the vet Monday morning. The vet washed the cornstarch off, blood started shooting across the room and he was like... I guess it was that bad. He sewed it up and the dog lived for another 5 years. CORN STARCH.
James Steele live aloe Vera which grows anywhere dries moisture out of burns and wounds. Course helps if you live in a warm area. Though if you have and enclosed porch it will grow in a pot or just hang it upside down from the roots. No soil needed. Just sun.
Just as an important note: while Maple syrup will keep indefinitely in its original container... its not as stable as honey. honey can be opened and re sealed and its still just as good- but maple syrup tends to degrade *once open*. also the Egypt ions did use "Starch" (and purified starch will keep) but not corn starch, as corn is purely an American crop
Bought a 50# Bag of White Rice about 10 years ago. I made up 2# bags using my Foodsaver Vacuum Sealer, then placed them in Homer Buckets in the Basement. Still using the Rice, tastes just like Store Bought. Hope this helps.
How do you like that vacuum sealer??? Any feedback? Aside from food, I've been thinking that there are lots of other uses for vacuum sealing. Dry, clean, new winter socks, in a cache, for example, can be kept free of mold. I know it sounds crazy, but this is where my mind goes...
Dry canning for rice, beans, pasta anything that needs to be kept dry will preserve items for double what you think. Dry canning is so easy and so worth the time..
SensiblePrepper, Thank you and God bless you and your family. A major thing that it seems most people don’t know about Vanilla. Read this a few years ago in Readers Digest. I tried it and have been using ever since. Any time you burn yourself, apply a cloth, cotton ball, napkin, etc. saturated with Vanilla and apply to burn right away. Of course, I have only used it for a burn up to about 2 inches around, but no matter the size, it has always worked. It will take the pain away within a minute. Also for smaller burns I have had no blisters. Hope this helps. God bless all. 🙏🏻🇺🇸🙏🏻🇺🇸
Christopher Kupetz Not specifically. I usually get it in the food section at Ross, of all places. It's really cheap. You can also probably get it in the bulk section of your grocery store. I don't know if you have Winco, but it's really cheap there. It should say Himalayan pink salt.
Christopher Kupetz Sherpa Pink Himalayan is good. Check Amazon. It's $27 for 10 lb, which is a great price. Free shipping, and also available for subscribe and save.
The Himalayan salt has traces of iron in it to give it the pink tone. Sea salt is just as good but an iodized salt is best given the "radiation winds" which will blow across the northern hemisphere. Not sure even that level of iodine will protect the thyroid. Discovered IOSAT tablets don't help older people.
The liquors were a very good addition to the list. It helps to have a still laying around. If you have the ability to make alcohol, it's uses are endless and needed in a SHTF scenario. nice video.
@@smiley2477 About 90% of the population works away from home. For a boss or company. Kids need to go to school, unless you're alone and independent there's no alternative but to make a living.
When it comes to salt, one way to save space for your salt storage is to get slabs of salt, it's in it's densest state when in natural slabs (I know himalayan salt slabs can be gotten don't know if white salt is like that) so takes up a lot less space. Just vacuum seal it to keep moisture out. When it comes time to use it if you have a chisel and a good herb grinder or old mortar and pedestal then you can powder it into a usable state.
Cornstarch will also stop bleeding in a cut, the way "Quick Stop" (for dogs) works. Another way to stop bleeding which I learned from a nice lady from India: Take a pure cottonball (NOT synthetic, must be real cotton) and burn it on a cookie sheet, etc, until it becomes charcoal powder. Use that powder to stop bleeding in a cut.
@@ultragoldcoin8780 the problem is you can't see what it says in the bottle until it's empty. By then you could have consumed a lot of hydrogenated corn syrup witch I'm alerigic.
There is plenty of completely liquide real honey around (i live in germany, if it says honey on it its honey in it, and its liquide) , but i dont know if it lasts less long
Great video. Just a word if you please: corn starch comes from corn which was unknown to the ancient Egyptians. Corn came from the ancient Tolmecs in the Americas. As for maple syrup - once a container is opened, it should be refrigerated. That will insure a long, nutritious shelf life. Blessings ...
Thank you I have been trying to prep for 2 wks .came too see what you had .Here are added Ginger ale ,crackes ,Thera flu ,Pepto ,( the pink stuff) Fever reducers ( tylenol, motrin )thermometer, Kleenex, paper plates ,chicken soup . Hope we dont get it but if we do best to be prepared. Gb

Thank you for your videos, great advice!! Definitely have a new subscriber..
On the salt, remember your body also needs iodine, my brother almost died from lack of iodine,cause he started using sea salt w/o iodine Drs told him to use salt with it . Just wanted to warn folks.
I’m glad you brought up the medicinal and bartering purposes of alcohol. I always buy the alcohol places on clearance strictly for bartering in a SHTF scenario.
I read that You can't use iodized salt to cure meat...it's gotta be regular salt. Also a trick to keep moisture out is to add some raw white rice inside the container maybe held inside a cheese cloth bag...it absorbs moisture. GOD BLESS.
@Levigyrl J it makes you burp real big when you first get it down and heartburn is instantly gone lol dont taste all that good tho lol. Never used it for fires except in my chest haha

Great video, sir. I would suggest to you and your viewers to avoid starch if you have arthritis or problems with inflammation. And these days, many people do have inflammation problems. Also, soy has been found to not be good for us. Thank you, Sootch. Edited to add: Here in the South, we have something that can save our lives and it can be found in abundance. Kudzu is something that we can survive on. Any and all Southeastern peppers would do well to purchase the kudzu cookbook. I think that it was originally imported from China, to be used as a food for cattle. But it contains enough minerals and nutrients for humans to survive.
You shouldn't put usgar in your blood. There's only 5 grams of the stuff MAXIMUM in all the blood in a human body. You are going to trigger a crazy inflammatory amount of insulin.
7:13 Oh for sure. However for rice to be stored it should be frozen for 3-4 days to kill any potential bug larvae or eggs. I guess some people say to freeze it for 5-7 days. Then another person said if you seal it in a Mylar bag with an oxygen absorbing pack it will kill any bugs/larvae.
I never found liquid vanilla extract in Europe, So I learned how to make it. Much cheaper & easy to make. Buy a small bottle of vodka, splice a few vanilla bean pods legthwise and drop them into the vodka. Shake occassionally & voila, 1-2 months later, you have vanilla extract for all your baking needs.
I have been making my own vanilla extract just like this for years. It is just as good, if not better than the real expensive stuff AND it is a lot,cheaper.

Eric Kort - yep I've had some cornwells apple cider vinegar in my pantry thats i think at least 10y old now and gradually getting stronger. about 4y ago I transferred it into a bourbon bottle and it only filled it half way. With all that air in the bottle it still hasn't spoilt.
Always buy IODIZED salt, and use it occasionally, if you also use sea salt. You can get really sick if you are not getting enough Iodine, and it's not found in normal food- it has to be added artificially.
@@jc.1191 that might be because iodine becomes a gas and is expelled into the air. I don't think the salt goes bad, but the iodine itself disappears over time. I keep my iodized salt in airtight containers and never in an open salt shaker. i need the iodine and so do most of you. There are a slew of medical issues you can get from a lack of iodine and that is why it is put in salt.
If there are black walnut trees in your area, iodine can be obtained from easiky processing the husk. It's one of the few land-based sources of iodine. They usually drop to the ground en masse in September/October here in parts of the U.S. Look for a bunch of bright green 'fruit'. If they are big and brainy looking, those are Osage Orange / hedge Apple seed balls. Also a useful tree with an interesting background.
I just learned that opened Aunt Jemima maple syrup in it's orginal package/bottle, again, opened, keeps for at least 5 yrs. It has been sitting up there for 5 yrs, opened but unused (but half used) for 5 yrs and just made pancakes for the first time in 5 yrs and that maple syrup was just like when you first bought it. It's not natural maple syrup as many preach but kept just as well, opened, and in it's orginal bottle. Maple syrup keeps! Maybe natural keeps longer but it keeps regardless! The add water only pancake mix is also 5 yrs old. It's opened and was partly used. It's in it's orginal box and I only took a sticky on one side kind of plastic wrap over the opening and again, was like brand new. That keeps well, as well. I don't know about forever and unopened is absoltuely better and will last longer but wow! And that's just when I had a chance to try it. It could last even longer.
I'd suggest adding organic apple cider vinegar with the mother to the list. I'm not sure if it's a forever food but it's very good for you (if you can consume it). I like to put a cap full in my tea with honey and tumeric.☺
tell us what chemical properties or vitamins apple cider vinegar contains that is good for you. malic acid is the only one I can think of that differs from other vinegars. Tell us how malic acid is good for us.

I also would consider buying condensed milk. It has 2 years shelf life, but can last far beyond it. I remember in USSR when we had food shortage, the store shelved had nothing but condensed milk. It is filling, sweet, it can be diluted with water. JMO. Thank you for the video, it is very informative. Starting my store now, too. 👋
Bottle water depends on how it's prepared and stored. I've worked in a couple a different industries that sold bottled water but it sat there for yes and it grew a green sludge on the inside if it sat too long. I.e. Dasani and Aquafina doesn't hold well.
Vinegar can also be used to store meat, especially pork. I know it's an acquired taste, but it's better than nothing. And ramen does go bad after time. Grains like flour, cornmeal, and oats can be stored, but you need to keep them in the freezer for a bit before packing away to kill any possible insect invaders.
A mix of rice with chickpeas and various dried legumes will give you all the proteins and amino acids that humans need to survive, and is overall cheaper and more satiating. The only advantage of jerky is taste; it's an inefficient choice.
Thank you for your video. Regarding 5:10, the Egyptians used wheat flour rather than corn starch. The reason is because corn is actually maize which did not exist in ancient Egypt. Maize originated in Mexico thousands of years ago and was used in the Americas by the native Indians. It was Columbus who introduced maize, potatoes, tomatoes, cocoa, peppers, vanilla, bananas, pineapples, tobacco, squash, etc. to Europe.
@Jaime Diaz. I sure agree with that. Besides local honey if taken every day - even just a teaspoon will boost your immune system and protect you during allergy season.
@@koldwarSumpsing I'm not a fan of bottled drinks.but even if it was in glass it's full of other chemical's from treatment.you ever see them treat water.ya ever look at the ph level in water. anyways foods where do you start.gmo.pesticides.salt levels.sugar levels and all the other chemicals added to food or just that so many foods in stores are not even close to what you think it is.
Good vid. One addition: when you're stocking up on water in plastic, try to get bottles with PET or PETE on the bottom. These plastics are least likely to leach any chemicals into the water, long term.
They still do, though. All plastic does. Plastic containers are simply not designed for true long-term storage. Retail containers are designed for a retail environment, with a steady supply chain that encourages the regular replacement of products on store shelves as they are bought and consumed. There's a reason why bulk food markets use other materials for their containers, which are designed for continuous use over much longer periods of time without having to replace them.
I know I'm way behind times here. Didn't know you had a prepper channel. I keep local honey and a spoon full every day and I no longer have to take allergy medications! Thanks for the great video Brother! Long Live the REPUBLIC! Stay Safe and GOD Bless!🙏🇺🇸
Watch out for no iodine salt. Dr. told me to cut out salt and I did then I developed an Iodine deficiency. My pulse was weak and not steady. I was short of breath even sleeping in bed and could get no rest. I suspected this so ate some salt. My pulse got stronger within 15 minutes. Then I normalized.
@@jerrysmith372 Again, I'd love to see your source that shows that iodine dissipates in 5 years. Whether it does or not, some backup iodine would be good to have on hand anyway. Especially for Sanitys Void. Buy some iodine drops on Amazon, buddy. I'd say store whatever salt is cheapest then. Salt isn't going to go "bad," even if it does lose its iodine.
Storing food and water for some king of catastrophe is a smart idea. How much one stores is your decision as you know what dangers you face. Setting up your home and property so you can survive is paramount. Window plywood blocks to stop glass from coming in the house, and blackout protection are of much importance. A second evacuation location is great (if you can afford one) but most of us can not never mind some one already living there when you get there. Leaving a urban area for your alternate site has to be quick to get away, for the highways will be plugged quickly. If you are a prep-per you have a great investment where you live as you worked hard get it as you wanted it. Having now to decide to leave is devastating. I look at this way your preps, water, and the ability to grow your long term food is the answer. Saving for a years supply and choosing a bug-out bag with three days of supply's is inconceivable (down right stupid) people will come together and most will live to reorganize. The zombies and gangs do not out number the majority. When "IT" happens gangs will be a food source for us or our animals and zombies is bullshit movie stuff. Stay gray-man until things settle down then organize. Look at all the hurricanes, fires for what happens when its time to work together. I am a realist and until the settling do whatever it takes to protect my family...
It's a great video one thing I could add is that I broke apart every bag of rice and my beans I proportioned them up into quarter pound and 1/2 lb proportions then I vacuum sealed them, I also have been dehydrating food and preserving food with salt keeping it vacuum sealed, one other thing that I do also is I put everything in a locked tote out of the Sun even a 5 gallon bucket works great but you can't penetrate light in and I also put water in certain foods with a anti moisture packs, the way to dry out of those packets is just put those in the microwave and they're ready to go and they're good forever, also keep your water out of sunlight as best as possible it keeps the plastic flavor down but even then you can still use it to wash yourself for you whatever you need to wash with it it may not it taste great but you can even hydrate with it
No peanut butter? Look at Steve1989mreinfo’s channel. He may seem odd because he samples old military rations that are from the 40’s onward. 90-95% of the time peanut butter is always good. Sure the oil separates but rarely goes rancid. Healthy amount of fats, protein and carbs. Energy dense and has vitamins and minerals along with fiber. Oh and it’s cheap.
I was homeless when I was a kid with my family and great video,just wanted to state ramen noodles ( cook ,then pour broth in cantin for a second course later enjoy noodles now
My "shtf pantry" includes a lot more because I love cooking and good food is definitely a huge morale booster. Though I also have the ability to plant and grow foods if necessary

Does himalayan salt works too?
Good video. I would like to mention a couple of things. You can in fact store imitation maple syrup indefinitely. It contains sugar/high fructose corn syrup. The other ingredients are preserved by them. My wife and I just tried some plain Mrs. Buttersworth that was 12 years old and it tasted as good as just bought. Vanilla and other extracts are tinctures. Meaning they have a smal amount of alcohol in them. Also remember that sugar can be used as an antibiotic. Sugar packed in a wound can keep infection at bay. And Vinegar needs to be the high % type as it will hold up longer. And one other item that I wouldn't consider a forever food but for 10-20 years is Canned meat products. We have eaten them that were 12 yearspadt the expiration date and they were as good ad newly purchased would be.. I've been doing this stuff for over 40 years, long before it was ever called prepping. It was a good video for sure. Thanks and good luck on your endeavors.
One of the only bad items I've ever found in the pantry is organic vanilla.
@@jc.1191 Good to know.
So...do you think tuna is still good after 11 years? I found some tuna...I’d put away!

Fun facts: As you mentioned, salt was used in ancient times as workers' pay. That's the source of the word 'salary', and the terms "being worth your salt" and "(they're the) salt of the earth" refer directly to how valuable salt is.
Eric Pardon me for using your comment, just wanted to add one more information to make it all complete. “Sal” means salt in latim, that’s where “sal-ary” comes from.
@@marianalisboa3582 um, Eric said that. So here's one for you: Salt mine owners were the richest men on earth for centuries!
@@papatorr3669 Then what happened? Why did the value just diminish?
@@Thesamurai1999 it's price diminished as new mines were discovered, production methods improved, and distribution costs went down in the early 20th century. It's value hasn't gone down. Although refrigeration has taken one of its uses. It was the salt mining barons that benefited the most, salt was kept affordable to the masses.
@@papatorr3669 Fun fact...there is a salt mine underneath Detroit. Not for eating, but more so for the snow on the roads. Still, who would've thunk it.
Baking soda is a good thing to have as well. Great for brushing your teeth, as an antacid and numerous other things.
I mix it with a little bit of cleaning vinegar to make a paste for cleaning pots and pans. It bubbles up a bit, but that hurts nothing.
Put in a couple of tablespoons in a clogged toilet and wait a couple minutes. Follow with 1-2 cups vinegar and wait 2-3 hours. Follow with boiling hot water to flush.
I don't think iodine causes salt to go bad; the iodine just breaks down and becomes less viable.
If you have a sinus infection, boil distilled water, let it cool to slightly warm. Take one cup water to ¼ teaspoon UNIODIZED salt and mix. Administer drops to your sinuses with an eye dropper.

I put a small grain grater with my storage in case of lumps in salt and sugar or spices. Planning sure has helped in 2020. By the way wish you would do a segment directed at single women/widows. I’m glad my husband and I started our planning a while back, but as a widow now it’s so different. I use videos like yours to help make sure I’ve not overlook something and to reinforce the plan. It really is a change in mindset on many levels. Thanks for what you do.
Being serious here, as you go thru life find a widowed man and combine resources. I had two neighbors who lost their spouses. They sold one of the houses and set up a home in the other.
Same!
For the rice and beans, freezing them first before storing them will get rid of any insects that may be present.
Great tip I once had bugs from prepping and took forever to get rid of them. Do this to flour and oats too.
Yu mean like weevles? Have yu ever looked at a weevil in rice ,! They look like little robotic demons! Scares me
One time I got a 50 pound bag of potatoes from a mom and pop shop on a quick run. Came home sat it down and roaches scattered! I dont know how I didnt notice in the store but they were sitting on the floor. It was awful trying to get rid of them, they were even in my car! I killed as many as I could right away but I missed some and that was enough to make it a problem!! So gross!
Deep freeze, that's a below zero degrees chest freezer, not your 32 degrees refrigerator freezer.
At least 3 days.
In addition to everything else mentioned here, dog food is another one that can get buggy quick that needs to be frozen.
Oh, and don't forget to store in a food safe container with an appropriately sized oxygen absorber.
@@Crogon 👍So many people either forget that most pet foods are made with meat, or think that it wont hurt animals, or dont care. Then you may earn heartache and loss of a valuable asset- our loved pets give us feelings of well being, lower blood pressure, and early detection of "visitors."
Also make sure to freeze all grains for 1 week since this will kill any bugs... GOD BLESS.
Thanks didnt know that.
Don’t forget after removing from freezer to let sit at room temperature for several days so any moisture can dry out. Before packing into airtight containers.
@Carol Howard Miss Carol, will the bay leaf kill the bugs or eggs? We vacuum sealed rice and beans with a bay leaf and salt. Also I noticed that jiffy cornbread had bugs in it 1 month before expired, never seen that before.
Apparently, it wont kill the eggs...
Onlyonename. I've always wondered where those bugs come from that get into dry pastas and stuff like that if they very old. I don't ever see them coming into the house to get into the dry goods. Are the eggs in there the whole time?
I recommend spaghetti for your noodles. It's straight shape make it the least bulky to store and carry because there isn't much air between the noodles.
@@Bob-67 Good points.
Just make sure that you are storing any pasta in an airtight container and not just the packaging it comes in. That's because if any weevils are accidentally introduced into your pantry, they will infest all the rest of the dry foods you have that aren't airtight. They are often brought into your home via dry dog and cat food that was infested while in the grocery store or warehouse.
Asian cellophane noodles (mung bean usually) are almost instant noodles - and danged-near melt in hot water. I love them!

John Casey and, make sure it is unpasteurized 😃

I’d love to see a video on how you personally store all these items.
Great video. There is a trick the older folks down here in Alabama used to help shorten cooking time on dry beans. Just soak them in water overnight. Next morning, the beans will be swollen from water absorption and reduce the required cooking time dramatically.
Great tip! All hard beans should be soaked over night.
Just to add to this tip, for those who have never cooked dry beans, know that you should NOT start cooking the beans in the same water they were soaked in. Always start with fresh water to cook them.
I think you're good with anything dried or powdered. Some may not last forever, but they all last a long time. Also, anything canned. Just look at those old MRE videos. As long as the can hasn't been punctured, the contents last for a very long time. Another way that alcohol comes in handy is if you've eaten something that seemed a bit off. Drink a bit of vodka immediately after and it should prevent food poisoning.
Another great video. I'm planting Sorghum next year. It's called the pancake plant since you can get a flour (with a grinder) and syrup out of it. I'm in S.C. and it will grow well in Zone 8a. Also, grow Amaranth. No matter how much food you store, you may run out of it. Learn how to garden.

Funny thing about most pancake syrup, not only is it not good for you, it contains 0% maple syrup. Just corn and sugar. Get the pure maple, it's more expensive but it's worth it!

Iodized salt is not going to spoil. It’s usually just potassium iodide which is itself a salt. These are stable non-organic chemicals. Most people get their iodine from iodized salt and It’s a really important micronutrient for survival. I think you saying to avoid iodized salt as a disservice and dangerous advice. But I do appreciate the video.
I'm storing iodized salt almost exclusively.
Canning/pickling salt is another must.
You would do well to store both iodized (even Morton says it last five years) and non iodized, aka canning and pickling salt.
@@daniellebarker7667 per FDA rules (for the USA obviously), _everything_ is required to have an expiration date. Even water! So if you're talking about Morton's expiration date that might just be a lawyerly thing.
Yes, Eric, I knew that. What I am saying is that even iodized salt has a decent shelf life, so planning to do without this very important supplement is unnecessary.

corn starch is also used for clotting blood. Personal experience, after my dog was attacked by a bobcat. the dog had an arterial wound actually shooting blood across the room. Called the vet and he said pack it with corn starch. Took probably half a pound pressed into the wound however, the dog was up and running around the entire next day. took her to the vet Monday morning. The vet washed the cornstarch off, blood started shooting across the room and he was like... I guess it was that bad. He sewed it up and the dog lived for another 5 years. CORN STARCH.
Definately Sprouting seeds... Micros!!! You can grow micros and live off that as well.
Honey can also buy used healing Burns and infected cuts. Honey removes the mouisture from the wound killing the infection
Yeah, it's also inherently antiseptic, thanks to bee saliva.
Honey is antiquity's neosporin.
James Steele live aloe Vera which grows anywhere dries moisture out of burns and wounds. Course helps if you live in a warm area. Though if you have and enclosed porch it will grow in a pot or just hang it upside down from the roots. No soil needed. Just sun.
Honey is also excellent proper gator for cuttings, plants etc. increases strike rate and reduces fungal outbreaks
If honey isn't available dry sugar is very good for packing wounds.
Just as an important note: while Maple syrup will keep indefinitely in its original container... its not as stable as honey. honey can be opened and re sealed and its still just as good- but maple syrup tends to degrade *once open*.
also the Egypt ions did use "Starch" (and purified starch will keep) but not corn starch, as corn is purely an American crop

SensiblePrepper, Thank you and God bless you and your family. A major thing that it seems most people don’t know about Vanilla. Read this a few years ago in Readers Digest. I tried it and have been using ever since. Any time you burn yourself, apply a cloth, cotton ball, napkin, etc. saturated with Vanilla and apply to burn right away. Of course, I have only used it for a burn up to about 2 inches around, but no matter the size, it has always worked. It will take the pain away within a minute. Also for smaller burns I have had no blisters. Hope this helps. God bless all. 🙏🏻🇺🇸🙏🏻🇺🇸
Good quality honey also works like a charm on burns and is antibacterial.
Pink and black sea salt has a ton of beneficial minerals your body needs. It's much better than plain table salt, which is only sodium.
Christopher Kupetz Not specifically. I usually get it in the food section at Ross, of all places. It's really cheap. You can also probably get it in the bulk section of your grocery store. I don't know if you have Winco, but it's really cheap there. It should say Himalayan pink salt.
Christopher Kupetz Sherpa Pink Himalayan is good. Check Amazon. It's $27 for 10 lb, which is a great price. Free shipping, and also available for subscribe and save.
LoneWanderer360 true but Iodized table salt helps with Iodine.
The Himalayan salt has traces of iron in it to give it the pink tone. Sea salt is just as good but an iodized salt is best given the "radiation winds" which will blow across the northern hemisphere. Not sure even that level of iodine will protect the thyroid. Discovered IOSAT tablets don't help older people.

When it comes to salt, one way to save space for your salt storage is to get slabs of salt, it's in it's densest state when in natural slabs (I know himalayan salt slabs can be gotten don't know if white salt is like that) so takes up a lot less space. Just vacuum seal it to keep moisture out. When it comes time to use it if you have a chisel and a good herb grinder or old mortar and pedestal then you can powder it into a usable state.

Great video. Just a word if you please: corn starch comes from corn which was unknown to the ancient Egyptians. Corn came from the ancient Tolmecs in the Americas. As for maple syrup - once a container is opened, it should be refrigerated. That will insure a long, nutritious shelf life.

Great video, sir. I would suggest to you and your viewers to avoid starch if you have arthritis or problems with inflammation. And these days, many people do have inflammation problems. Also, soy has been found to not be good for us. Thank you, Sootch. Edited to add: Here in the South, we have something that can save our lives and it can be found in abundance. Kudzu is something that we can survive on. Any and all Southeastern peppers would do well to purchase the kudzu cookbook. I think that it was originally imported from China, to be used as a food for cattle. But it contains enough minerals and nutrients for humans to survive.
kudzu starch is used in cooking in Japan. One must dig rather deep to get to its root, but if you are starving, dig!
You can use sugar and salt for a makeshift saline solution for blood loss in emergencies.
You shouldn't put usgar in your blood. There's only 5 grams of the stuff MAXIMUM in all the blood in a human body. You are going to trigger a crazy inflammatory amount of insulin.
7:13 Oh for sure. However for rice to be stored it should be frozen for 3-4 days to kill any potential bug larvae or eggs. I guess some people say to freeze it for 5-7 days. Then another person said if you seal it in a Mylar bag with an oxygen absorbing pack it will kill any bugs/larvae.
To help with salt dryness add dry rice grains to it. Helps with preventing salt caking.
I never found liquid vanilla extract in Europe, So I learned how to make it. Much cheaper & easy to make. Buy a small bottle of vodka, splice a few vanilla bean pods legthwise and drop them into the vodka. Shake occassionally & voila, 1-2 months later, you have vanilla extract for all your baking needs.
Nice!
I have been making my own vanilla extract just like this for years. It is just as good, if not better than the real expensive stuff AND it is a lot,cheaper.
2020 is wack so I'm here

what about apple cider vinager? it has many uses for food and for health
Eric Kort - yep I've had some cornwells apple cider vinegar in my pantry thats i think at least 10y old now and gradually getting stronger. about 4y ago I transferred it into a bourbon bottle and it only filled it half way. With all that air in the bottle it still hasn't spoilt.
Vinager for canning foods.
All vinegars are indefinite
Eric Kort yes Bragg’s with the “mother”
Always buy IODIZED salt, and use it occasionally, if you also use sea salt. You can get really sick if you are not getting enough Iodine, and it's not found in normal food- it has to be added artificially.
It has a 5 year shelf life because of iodine.
@@jc.1191 that might be because iodine becomes a gas and is expelled into the air. I don't think the salt goes bad, but the iodine itself disappears over time. I keep my iodized salt in airtight containers and never in an open salt shaker. i need the iodine and so do most of you. There are a slew of medical issues you can get from a lack of iodine and that is why it is put in salt.
@@genkiferal7178 Yeah, I'm also unsure if it's correct salt. I've used 20 year old iodized salt. Looked and tasted fine.
If there are black walnut trees in your area, iodine can be obtained from easiky processing the husk. It's one of the few land-based sources of iodine.
They usually drop to the ground en masse in September/October here in parts of the U.S. Look for a bunch of bright green 'fruit'.
If they are big and brainy looking, those are Osage Orange / hedge Apple seed balls. Also a useful tree with an interesting background.
@@wmluna381 that's great info. But, the husks are poisonous
Aww, this guy is so nice and friendly. Thanks for the info!
You can tell he's a sweetheart.
RAW unfiltered honey is healthy. Processed is not healthy. RAW unfiltered honey can be purchased at Sam's wholesale club

I just learned that opened Aunt Jemima maple syrup in it's orginal package/bottle, again, opened, keeps for at least 5 yrs. It has been sitting up there for 5 yrs, opened but unused (but half used) for 5 yrs and just made pancakes for the first time in 5 yrs and that maple syrup was just like when you first bought it. It's not natural maple syrup as many preach but kept just as well, opened, and in it's orginal bottle. Maple syrup keeps! Maybe natural keeps longer but it keeps regardless!
The add water only pancake mix is also 5 yrs old. It's opened and was partly used. It's in it's orginal box and I only took a sticky on one side kind of plastic wrap over the opening and again, was like brand new. That keeps well, as well.
I don't know about forever and unopened is absoltuely better and will last longer but wow! And that's just when I had a chance to try it. It could last even longer.
Not natural maple syrup? Maple syrup is either natural or fake, aka not maple syrup / pancake syrup
I'd suggest adding organic apple cider vinegar with the mother to the list. I'm not sure if it's a forever food but it's very good for you (if you can consume it). I like to put a cap full in my tea with honey and tumeric.☺
tell us what chemical properties or vitamins apple cider vinegar contains that is good for you. malic acid is the only one I can think of that differs from other vinegars. Tell us how malic acid is good for us.
Cigarettes is also a great barter item during SHTF scenarios.
reempire888 wish I bought a bunch of cigs back in the 70's when I still smoked . .25 cents a pack. Think a carton was two or three bucks. I could sell then now and retire.
For people who like burning money, yes.
@@Gabdube lmao your not burning your money, your saving it. if shtf, your moneys only use will be to clean your ass, while everyone is gonna kill for one cigarette
@@Gabdube lol
Cigarettes are way to expensive to use for bartering. Will probably get ripped off in a trade.
Syrup is perfect in coffee. Just a teaspoon will do!
Maple syrup, soy sauce, oil makes the best tri tip marinade
I also would consider buying condensed milk. It has 2 years shelf life, but can last far beyond it. I remember in USSR when we had food shortage, the store shelved had nothing but condensed milk. It is filling, sweet, it can be diluted with water. JMO. Thank you for the video, it is very informative. Starting my store now, too. 👋
Bottle water depends on how it's prepared and stored. I've worked in a couple a different industries that sold bottled water but it sat there for yes and it grew a green sludge on the inside if it sat too long. I.e. Dasani and Aquafina doesn't hold well.
Vinegar can also be used to store meat, especially pork. I know it's an acquired taste, but it's better than nothing. And ramen does go bad after time. Grains like flour, cornmeal, and oats can be stored, but you need to keep them in the freezer for a bit before packing away to kill any possible insect invaders.
Definitely keep the instant coffee sealed. I live in a humid climate, and an opened jar was moldy when I got back to it.
Maybe drop a small moisture absorber in the jar?
adding a couple of lbs of beef jerky would be a plus
Slimeface definitely
Ooh yea that’s smart
Tom Didit but it holds good trade value if you want to get rid of it quickly
A mix of rice with chickpeas and various dried legumes will give you all the proteins and amino acids that humans need to survive, and is overall cheaper and more satiating. The only advantage of jerky is taste; it's an inefficient choice.
"Liquor will last forever" - not in my pantry! lol
Where then? Stored in your fat overweight gut you pig
Just in your liver as in cirrhosis!!
You do make really great videos. I appreciate them very much.
Thanks!
Cycle in some hot sauce and spices... Liven up some of the bland foods. The body needs some iodine. That's why we have iodized salt.
Wes41 Great idea
We do not get enough iodine in our salt.
Yes we need iodine but you can not use iodized salt to preserve meat . It will ruin the meat and it is poison, it will kill you if you eat the meat.
Lea1rn to fast now
Jodine is still in seasalt or himalya salt. And that in a beter way for our body
THAT VINAGER IS THE BEST THING ON EARTH TO ELEMANTING RUST FROM YOUR RUSTED TOOLS JUST AMAZING STUFF .
Good point! Thanks Mike!
Thank you for your video. Regarding 5:10, the Egyptians used wheat flour rather than corn starch. The reason is because corn is actually maize which did not exist in ancient Egypt. Maize originated in Mexico thousands of years ago and was used in the Americas by the native Indians. It was Columbus who introduced maize, potatoes, tomatoes, cocoa, peppers, vanilla, bananas, pineapples, tobacco, squash, etc. to Europe.
Buy local raw honey not the mess from walmart
I love my bee lady it is a bit of a drive to get to her but it is worth it
All food from Walmart is poison
@Jaime Diaz. I sure agree with that. Besides local honey if taken every day - even just a teaspoon will boost your immune system and protect you during allergy season.
Troy Levi how?
@@koldwarSumpsing I'm not a fan of bottled drinks.but even if it was in glass it's full of other chemical's from treatment.you ever see them treat water.ya ever look at the ph level in water. anyways foods where do you start.gmo.pesticides.salt levels.sugar levels and all the other chemicals added to food or just that so many foods in stores are not even close to what you think it is.
Glad I know how to make great ol moonshine I think people will want to keep me around HAHAHA
Great video!! Happy I just found your channel!! God bless!!🙏🏻🇺🇸
Good vid. One addition: when you're stocking up on water in plastic, try to get bottles with PET or PETE on the bottom. These plastics are least likely to leach any chemicals into the water, long term.
Sherwood Prepper Excellent comment, thank you so much
They still do, though. All plastic does. Plastic containers are simply not designed for true long-term storage. Retail containers are designed for a retail environment, with a steady supply chain that encourages the regular replacement of products on store shelves as they are bought and consumed.
There's a reason why bulk food markets use other materials for their containers, which are designed for continuous use over much longer periods of time without having to replace them.
Where did the Egyptian's get corn starch? Did they trade with native Americans?
Traded with 'em through them aliens.
The first McDonald's was in ancient Egypt
@@mohammadnoor8429 😂
They had flight back then we've been lied to from birth
I know I'm way behind times here. Didn't know you had a prepper channel. I keep local honey and a spoon full every day and I no longer have to take allergy medications! Thanks for the great video Brother! Long Live the REPUBLIC! Stay Safe and GOD Bless!🙏🇺🇸

We rinse our rice well before and after we cook it. That removes a lot of the bad stuff.
Make sure to test a handful of it. China made rice out of plastic.
Watch out for no iodine salt. Dr. told me to cut out salt and I did then I developed an Iodine deficiency. My pulse was weak and not steady. I was short of breath even sleeping in bed and could get no rest. I suspected this so ate some salt. My pulse got stronger within 15 minutes. Then I normalized.
Yes we need it but it wont keep more than 5 years. The iodine will dissipate.
@@jerrysmith372 Again, I'd love to see your source that shows that iodine dissipates in 5 years. Whether it does or not, some backup iodine would be good to have on hand anyway. Especially for Sanitys Void. Buy some iodine drops on Amazon, buddy. I'd say store whatever salt is cheapest then. Salt isn't going to go "bad," even if it does lose its iodine.
Storing food and water for some king of catastrophe is a smart idea. How much one stores
is your decision as you know what dangers you face. Setting up your home and property so you can survive is paramount. Window plywood blocks to stop glass from coming in the house, and blackout protection are of much importance. A second evacuation location is great (if you can afford one) but most of us can not never mind some one already living there when you get there. Leaving a urban area for your alternate site has to be quick to get away, for the highways will be plugged quickly. If you are a prep-per you have a great investment where you live as you worked hard get it as you wanted it. Having now to decide to leave is devastating. I look at this way your preps, water, and the ability to grow your long term food is the answer. Saving for a years supply and choosing a bug-out bag with three days of supply's is inconceivable (down right stupid) people will come together and most will live to reorganize. The zombies and gangs do not out number the majority. When "IT" happens gangs will be a food source for us or our animals and zombies is bullshit movie stuff. Stay gray-man until things settle down then organize. Look at all the hurricanes, fires for what happens when its time to work together. I am a realist and until the settling do whatever it takes to protect my family...
Sootch I am curious will pure vanilla extract from the 1980s or 1970s still be used if the bottles have not been opened yet?
Is it in a glass container? And, is it in alcohol? If yes, then yes it should be good♡♡♡
Instant ramen is deep-fried as part of the production process, the oil makes it go rancid pretty fast.
mung noodles then. they cost a lot more, but cook even faster.
It's a great video one thing I could add is that I broke apart every bag of rice and my beans I proportioned them up into quarter pound and 1/2 lb proportions then I vacuum sealed them, I also have been dehydrating food and preserving food with salt keeping it vacuum sealed, one other thing that I do also is I put everything in a locked tote out of the Sun even a 5 gallon bucket works great but you can't penetrate light in and I also put water in certain foods with a anti moisture packs, the way to dry out of those packets is just put those in the microwave and they're ready to go and they're good forever, also keep your water out of sunlight as best as possible it keeps the plastic flavor down but even then you can still use it to wash yourself for you whatever you need to wash with it it may not it taste great but you can even hydrate with it
No peanut butter? Look at Steve1989mreinfo’s channel. He may seem odd because he samples old military rations that are from the 40’s onward. 90-95% of the time peanut butter is always good. Sure the oil separates but rarely goes rancid. Healthy amount of fats, protein and carbs. Energy dense and has vitamins and minerals along with fiber. Oh and it’s cheap.
Agent P yes and full of protein
Agent P. Yeap PB&J a must!
Glass jars for the peanut butter would be better than plastic jars.
I can't live without peanut butter and honey.
High protein for prepping but not to eat daily due to Aflatoxin.
I was homeless when I was a kid with my family and great video,just wanted to state ramen noodles ( cook ,then pour broth in cantin for a second course later enjoy noodles now
My "shtf pantry" includes a lot more because I love cooking and good food is definitely a huge morale booster. Though I also have the ability to plant and grow foods if necessary
Flour should have a pretty long shelf life too.
