Bug out bag. Try to take foods that do not take water to prepare, I see so many bug out bags with things like, instant oatmeal, hot chocolate & soups. The water should be for drinking & take vitamins & protein bars. I also take a bottle of fiber, not only is fiber needed but it also swells for a full feeling. I came across what is called Lifecaps. They are a capsule that has everything needed to survive without food with the exception of water. It is full of vitamins & minerals plus Iodine. Anyway, you take three of them a day & drink water. I can actually take enough food in one backpack to las 6 months because of these little Lifecaps, protein bars, fiber & water. I will run out of water in a week so I do carry a small filter & a couple of those straw water filters that filter the water as you suck. Anyway, after I bought 25 bottles I found a coupon code & bought 75 bottles more. The coupon code is... healthcap It will get you 33% off. There are also sites that have those filter straws that are cheaper than any of the stores around here. (SLC) I think they are a really good idea along with some purification pills. I cannot remember the sites off the top of my head but you can Google for aquamira filter straw. Aquamira is the manufacture but do not buy off there site because I have found them for almost 1/2 what they want on their own site on other sites. Good luck, Gods speed & get serious about your bug out bag!
