With the help of survival cache we\u2019ve included a <a class=\"zem_slink\" title=\"Survival kit\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Survival_kit\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"wikipedia\">survival food<\/a> pyramid. When I first bought my electric <a class=\"zem_slink\" title=\"Food dehydrator\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Food_dehydrator\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"wikipedia\">dehydrator<\/a> at <a class=\"zem_slink\" title=\"REI\" href=\"http:\/\/www.rei.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"homepage\">REI<\/a> I couldn\u2019t get enough of the <a class=\"zem_slink\" title=\"Dried fruit\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Dried_fruit\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"wikipedia\">fruit leather<\/a> or dried fruits. I watch several videos from Babel to Pathfinder schools on dehydrating entire meals and backpacking that I will never buy another dehydrated meal already prepared.<\/p>\n<p>Now with that being said, if you want to plan for a rainy day and start packing large quantities of foods like wheat, powered milk, rice, dried soups, pasta, beans, sugar with Mylar bags and <a class=\"zem_slink\" title=\"Oxygen absorber\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Oxygen_absorber\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"wikipedia\">oxygen absorbers<\/a>. I can make a video for you and share with you the process to packaging 5 gallon buckets and sealing them for long term cache.<\/p>\n<p>Purchasing a good dehydrator can be done at any of your local outdoor recreation stores from REI to Cabelas. I purchases one from Cheaper than dirt and a better one from REI. Your dehydrator should have at least four trays and different temperature settings.<\/p>\n<p>REI:<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.rei.com\/product\/752906\/open-country-700-watt-fd-75sk-dehydrator\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow nofollow\">http:\/\/www.rei.com\/product\/752906\/open-country-700-watt-fd-75sk-dehydrator<\/a><\/p>\n<p>You should think about purchasing Mylar bags off eBay they can be bought by the dozen with oxygen absorbers. You can also use hand warmers for O2 absorbers in a pinch.<\/p>\n<p>If you are interested in long term storage send us a comment and I can put together a video.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Survival techniques:Dehydrating foods is an excellent way to plan for those \u201cjust in-case\u201d situations.
