I thought it would be interesting to make a list of ideas for food to put in a BOB/GHB. Im not talking just throwing in stale MRE's. What would you put in your pack? Remember, it should be packed for long term storage, 6-12 month rotation. Also consider conditions such as heat and cold. I will get it started with ideas from my bag.....What can you add?
Instant coffee or tea bags
Hot chocolate packets
Lemonade/Punch drink packets
Tuna packets w/crackers
Ramon Noodle packs
Jack Link Jerky packs
Lipton Rice or Pasta packets
Instant Oatmeal Packets
Honey packs
Cliff or Granola bars
Almonds
Raisins
Salt, Pepper, Sugar packets
Also consider....
Instant Rice
Instant Potatoes (I really dont like but would eat if needed)
fyi....I carry water and 2 sterno cans. They will boil water in about 7 minutes in my metal cup. They also make a great heat source if needed in a vehicle if stranded. Being in WI, I consider eating something warm/hot just as important as food itself. It certainly is a morale booster when its cold out.
