      Honestly. We have a closet full of 5 gallon and 1 gallon containers of potable water and a bunch of iodine tablets for purifying non-potable water.

    Rice and beans are long-term emergencies food; sometimes it's all people can afford now.

    Water is the #1 prep

    I mostly disagree. Maybe it is because I am a long time prepper with experience in severe hardship. The one's with long term food will far outlive those who store for convenience opposed to nutrition. If we lost all the world's rice and beans today, within 2 weeks, more than half the world would die of starvation. Please read your followers comments. I'm grateful they agree with me. If you don't have access to water you will die regardless.

      I’m with you. I hate negative comments and don’t typically make them but I vehemently disagree with her for a few reasons. I have rice, beans, potatoes and a BOATLOAD of herbs and spices. Those were my base prepper supplies. I’ve added on a lot since but I followed the depression folks advice and started with those things.

  • @dreajam870

    This is terrible advice. One should all how to make an instant stovetop to boil the rice. A pot and 2 bottles of water would work.

    It’s good I’m Mexican we can always find a way to make rice and beans in the most hard circumstances. Even if they’re dry.

  • @katiesims3075
    @katiesims3075 Před rokem +10

    Store water like you’re supposed to? If anything water should be the thing stored because youll die faster from no water. 1 gal per person per day. As long as its not in the sun it should be fine for longterm storage in a 5 gal bottle. The gal per person should be enough to drink and prepare food.

  • @TD-izAbxy
    @TD-izAbxy Před rokem +7

    I do agree about the dried beans because there'san alternative, canned ready beans. But everyone should have at least 20 lbs of white rice stored. Even if you lost power and that's what you had to eat, you should be storing water and you can cook the rice in a pot outside on your grill. Rice and beans is a complete source of protein fat and carbs. It's dirt cheap compared to other things. And you can stretch it far.

    • @grandcanyon2
      @grandcanyon2 Před 7 měsíci

      I agree canned beans are cheap and easy to eat, they can last 15 years and still be good. As for rice it's fairly cheap I say 50 pounds on hand and canned chili and soups.As for water 30 gallons will be a good goal.

  • @haywoodjablome236

    Have backup canned veggies. The cans have water in them.

    Store up Water. If not for cooking, you may need it for flushing waste if "water not working"...

  • @deborahelburn4720
    @deborahelburn4720 Před rokem +3

    Stock up on water & fuel & you can have rice & beans. Preload for less cook time.

  • @TXJan0057
    @TXJan0057 Před rokem +2

    Dried rice and beans are fine if that is what you normally eat. Just have enough water to rehydrate and cook. Soak your beans and your rice makes cooking quicker. I have cooked many pots of beans over a wood fire.

  • @mikew-jl3cg

    I will use my Ecoflow DeltaPro to power up my electric appliances to cook what I need to eat. Already tested it to see how long it takes and how much power will be used. Easy.

  • @disco4535
    @disco4535 Před rokem +3

    You should be storing water as well, and ways to get it/treat it. I could live solely on dried meats the rest of my life and be in heaven anyway, skip the useless rice.

    Prepping 4 me in these past years has served me. I have received tons of FREE food from neighbors who stocked up at the wake of covid 19, whose food is now about to expire. Tons of beans, pasta sauce & canned veggies lol.

  • @matthewlarue1883
    @matthewlarue1883 Před 8 měsíci +2

    Rice and beans is pivotal as a 1st pick for cheap food that is easily made into hundreds of alternatively flavored meals. Also if you have no water your screwed anyway. If you can't find or collect water by collecting condensation your already failing bad. Spices in bulk are also cheap and broths are cheap too. Rice and beans should absolutely be the 1st bulk food to buy. Its cheap, easy, providing for multiple people easily and easy to store in bulk for little space. This girl is giving terrible advice out the gate. 😅 I get yes you want variety but 1st priority is water and bulk food. Then protection/firearms and everything else comes after that.

  • @exploringlandscapes-austra1647

    If you don’t have any water, you’re already screwed. You also absolutely don’t need power to cook things, unless you live in the city (in which case get out of the city) if you have a gas stove, that will last a little while, but if you have even a few sticks laying around, you’re good to go with a rocket stove, and if you don’t have one, use some of the cans you already have and make a makeshift one if you don’t have enough wood for a proper fire. If you don’t have water or a lighter and access to some sticks, you are not prepped.

    Use a pressure cooker to cook your rice and beans quickly and at 1/5th the energy

  • @QueenPlcj
    @QueenPlcj Před 6 měsíci

    You can cook when power is out. It’s several ways to do that.

  • @kerryanne7126
    @kerryanne7126 Před 6 měsíci

    I would argue that canned food is more expensive than dried. It also doesn’t last as long. At least that’s my experience. Water needs to be stored if you’re going to lose the ability to option that anyway. Dried goods also require less storage than canned so for those in small homes that’s more realistic.

  • @relaxingsleepstudyaudio7378
    @relaxingsleepstudyaudio7378 Před 8 měsíci

    If you’re stocking up on rice I recommend cooking it and dehydrating it.
    In an emergency situation the dehydrated rice can be soaked in cold water(up to an hour before eating potentially) or hot water (bring to a boil, turn off your gas and let it sit for 10 minutes), this saves using excess gas you could be saving.
    You may have to rethink your storage of the rice if you are using plastic bottles but sealing it in a Mylar bag with an oxygen absorber and putting it into a bucket with a lid works just as well.

    So why don't u mention that water should be number 1 to stock up?
    Rice and beans is a staple . So when all the cans are gone they at least can.eat something filling and.if.the have any spices they can make multiples dishes

  • @dothedewinme
    @dothedewinme Před 8 měsíci

    If you have nothing ELSE yes this is true. However. They are ALWAYS a good backup. Especially rice. Beans take a bit more work. I’d suggest for someone getting started lentils, peas or chickpeas.
    You gotta have some other stuff first before you start ONLY doing beans and rice. Starting with a garden

    Rice and beans or some of the most versatile and shelfstable foods there are, and our ancestors cooked for countless generations without power.

  • @muddyshoesgardener
    @muddyshoesgardener Před 11 měsíci

    Great point! There’s the immediate emergency and the long haul emergency. The immediate emergency is emotionally charged and comfort eating will be important. You’ll be grateful for those packages of rice and beans during the long haul if you aren’t eating well, when the cookies and canned corn are gone and when there’s no income. Two very different scenarios.
