© 2003, Probert, Harkness, Emergency Food in a Nutshell, 2nd Edition
Print a copy of both charts. On the estimated needs chart, find the column for the number of people in your family and copy, in pencil, the number of pounds listed for each food on to your "Basic Food Storage Plan". Now tailor your plan to the tastes of your family by moving desired number of pounds of a less favorite food to a preferred one.
To keep things SIMPLE, Leslie Probert and Lisa Harkness recommend planning for all members of the family, including children, as though they were adults. Oil and powdered milk have a shorter shelf life. Therefore, store only the amount of each that you will reasonably rotate through while children are young. As children reach teenage years, store full adult amounts.
