Prepardness

In case you're looking for a solution for 72-hr. kit food that goes rancid in the summer heat of the car, Emergency Essentials has food bars on sale right now that can handle the summer heat of being in a car as well as the cold in the winter. A 3-day supply pack of  S.O.S. bars are only $6.25 and they're good for 5 years. That's a sweet solution! You can also buy one-meal Millennium food bars for $1.20 with the same durability in case you want some on hand without opening the 3-day pack.

Good luck with your preparedness efforts! If you have ideas, we'd love to hear!
