Do you know what to do in the event of a winter storm, flood, earthquake or any disaster? Do you have everything you need in order to survive during an emergency? Will your family be safe and not go hungry? According to the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) the United States has experienced an average of 50 natural disasters each year in the last decade, more than 560 total. The agency made 35 major disaster declarations this year already, mostly severe winter storms and flooding.
We all know we cannot predict and emergency or a disaster, but we could prepare for one. That is why we need to take action.
One of the most important items you need to prepare well in advance for is an emergency survival kit. Your survival kit should have everything you and your family would need. In most emergencies, the first 72 hours is crucial, you and your family may need to survive on your own without the local officials and relief workers help.
You can gather information online for information on how to build your kit from sites like Ready.gov, which is FEMA’s campaign for disaster preparedness and also from RedCross.org. Remember, it is best to have survival kits in not only your home but your office and car as well. We should learn from recent disasters that food and water could become scarce in a short period.
In an emergency situation, one of the essential items that you need to have is an ample supply of food for your family and friends. You need to able to feed your family until help comes or when you can find an adequate source of food supply. And when it comes to long term food storage MRE’s or meal ready to eat is king.
What is an MRE?
According to the Food Safety and Inspection Service of the USDA MRE stands for "Meal, Ready-to-Eat." MRE's were originally designed for the U.S. government and have been used since the 1970's in the U.S. space program, U.S. military, and USDA's Forest Service. The MRE package is officially known as a tri-laminate retort pouch. It contains normal food that is ready to heat and consume, such as chili or beef stew.
