I've been looking this up all day and found many great sites out there. I figured this would be of interest to some of the members here on ATS. I've read on one site that you can store a years worth of food for one person in a 2ftx3ft 5ft high space. I think I could get it stored with less space by packing it very neatly and by packaging it in vacuum sealed bags inside Mylar bags. If packaged and stored properly, such a setup could last one thirty years for most foods at room temperature.

Has anyone thought of doing this or has done it? I'm thinking of getting a decent dehydrator and vacuum sealer with my taxes.

Interesting post. Do you have some links for the preperation of these foods the proper way? I already have the de-hydrator and the sealer, just looking for techniques and recipes.Thanks
