     I love your site it so easy to use and you explain it so simply..thank you

  • jary lubinski

    I’ve been working with your web site for several months now. Of all the available sites I find this one the easiest most well-thought out one around. Congrats ladies…and thank you!!

  • Lacie

    I just found your site this week, and I’m LOVING it! I thank you for all of your hard work, and want you to know that the info you have posted is making a daunting task seem manageable. :)

    My question is this…with your Long Term Food Storage Excel Calculator, how many calories per day are we getting? My plan is for 2 adults, 3 children, for 12 months. I haven’t been able to find information to know if this will be a bare minimum of 1200 adult calories per day, or a heftier amount which I need to supplement with other foods to feel more like normal.

    Again, I think you ladies are doing a great job, and I look forward to discovering more on your site. :)

      Hi Lacie, Our recommendations provide for a 2300 calorie per day diet for
      adults based off of just these basic foods. Obviously if you supplement
      with fruits and veggies etc you can eat less of these staple items. You can
      read more about the recommendations at this link:

    Also, do you know of any great instructional videos or books on cooking on top of an earth stove? We live out in the country in Oregon. Worst case scenario, long term, no power… solar ovens wouldnt work around here, thinking aside from a camp stove/propane, why not learn to cook on top of the wood stove? Keep the house warm and make dinner too.

      I don’t have any experience with earth stoves. Maybe someone else can
      chime in here!

    Hi, wondering if you have a gadget checklist? Something that has a list of recommended kitchen gadgets that will be needed with your food storage? Such as a manual wheat grinder, manual can opener, etc… I’m still new to the site and searching, printing, saving, filling out. Who knew this would be fun, right?

    • http://foodstoragemadeeasy.net Jodi – Food Storage Made Easy

      That’s a great idea of something to add. We did a post about
      appliances you may want here:
      http://foodstoragemadeeasy.net/2011/02/25/food-storage-appliances/ We
      also discuss a lot of recommended products under our SHOP ONLINE
      section. We haven’t really put together a list of “must-have gadgets”
      though. We might have to add that in to our posting schedule :)

    This is awesome, you ladies have done excellent work here. Thank you so much for sharing. Bless you.

    I have filled in one month’s worth of meals and listed most of the ingredients. I haven’t checked recipes. I don’t understand how it calculates how many of them I need for the month. Or do I have to figure that myself? I also haven’t counted how many on hand.

  • Melissa

    I am having problems opening and viewing the 3month Excel worksheet. Adobe says that not the correct file type or damaged. Can’t open in Office 2003?

    • http://foodstoragemadeeasy.net Jodi – Food Storage Made Easy

      It should open in Excel, not in Adobe? Your version of office may be too old. You could try downloading the free software OpenOffice and it should be able to open excel files as well. If none of that works you can email us and we can try to send you the file and see if it can open that way instead of through the download.

    thanks for all these cool and useful tips!

    It depends on the individual cannery but most of them seem to be ok with it although sometimes they require a member to accompany you.

    Do you know if non LDS members are allowed to help and purchase from canneries?

      I found Mylar bags and oxygen absorbers on amazon.com
      They were inexpensive and shipped right on time.

    Just found your site. Thank you for all your hard work!!! The Excel spread sheet REALLY opened my eyes. I THOUGHT I had a lot of food, but now I see huge gaps. I’m heading to Walmart ASAP to start balancing my menus better! Keep up the good work ladies!

    Hi,
    I love the idea about the 3-month food supply excel worksheet, but when I click on the link it gives me a blank page. Am I doing something wrong?
    Thanks!

    This is a wonderful site and service. You all are doing a wonderful service for all those who want to protect their families from the storms that are gathering. I will be sure to send this out to my network as a solution to a subject that can be very confusing as well as expensive.

    I look forward to having the confidence that this will bring to all of my family and friends. I have an e-mail list of over 400 people. We are all admonished to warn our neighbors. This allows us to help our neighbors that will bring untold blessings.

    Thanks once again!
