FOOD STORAGE - “Use It or Lose It”
http://extension.usu.edu/files/publications/publication/pub__6240605.pdf

Many people desire to maintain a 12-month supply of food in their homes. People store foods for convenience, for security and for thrift's sake. Having food on hand when you need it, saves you time and energy. It helps you avoid unplanned shopping trips and unexpected dips into your budget. In a financial crisis, stored food is like money in the bank. Buying in bulk or by the case allows you to take advantage of low prices. In times of rising costs, you will be eating tomorrow at yesterday's prices.
