Food Storage Analyzer

I have 15 Days worth of food. Well almost, but who counts 14.9 days worth of food. I put in those 7 cases of vegetarian beans, 24 cans of Tuna....wait..I didn't add in the macaroni and cheese I have. Ok, now I have over 15 days worth.

This is an awesome calculator for food storage. My favorite part is being able to see what the Emergency Essentials has available and knowing the cost on the very same page! I like being able to add my own canned items and supplies.

The only downside is when I did put my boxed macaroni and cheese in I had to choose to put it in the MRE section or the dried can section. At least at first. THEN I discovered 'add a product' right under that and if I'm willing to spend the time to put in the Nutrition Facts from the back of the box I can have it added to the list. A bit time consuming but gives me an accurate reading of my food supply!

I've tried several different online food calculators and I have to say this one is superior to any of the others. This is a FREE calculator and one I will continue using. Try it for yourself.

  1. Food's less expensive (and a better variety) at The Internet Grocer. They also have canned meats, cheese and real butter:

  2. Thank you for posting this. We are checking out this site and will be ordering from them shortly. We are allocating two weeks worth of prepping money! Which is why I have not posted any new supplies lately.

    Also we are going to order from Emergency Essentials as well. It's exciting and by the end of the week we'll have two orders in. I'll post more about this on the blog. Again thank you!
