Interesting info for those of us who are preparing for the coming food shortages. As well as the list given above there are other tips like canned vegetables being especially valuable for their water content.
"Long shelf life foods could save you in a crisis—and most people already have a few at home without realizing it.
Here’s the thing… panic buying doesn’t actually prepare you. The real advantage comes from foods that sit quietly in your pantry for years and are ready when things go wrong. In this video, I break down survival foods that last long-term and actually make sense for everyday storage.
What most people miss is that shelf life isn’t the only factor. Calories, nutrition, and ease of use matter just as much. Some of the best options require no cooking, no refrigeration, and almost zero effort—making them way more practical than you’d expect.
The reality is, building a simple emergency food supply doesn’t mean turning your home into a bunker. Small, smart choices—like stocking versatile pantry staples and calorie-dense foods—can make a huge difference if supply chains slow down or prices spike.
You don’t need extreme prepping… just a smarter pantry."
Apart from stockpiling, there's also the question of food security, ie. stocks may be confiscated for instance and also communication if the internet went down. Prepping is one thing but none of us are prepared in the event there is no food whatsoever or how long the situation lasts. Of greatest concern is for pets, who would be seen as food themselves.

) I once went to open a can of sardines that I noticed was slightly bulging. It exploded like a grenade, and I spent quite some time scrubbing all the rotten fish from the ceiling, and had to wash every single thing I was wearing. (If a can of anything seems to be bulging, do please throw it away immediately.
