Stress is well known for bringing out the worst in people.
Stress is known for influencing bad decisions.
Comfort foods are important. They help us to stay calm, to make good decisions, to navigate uncertainty.
I don't know about your home, but mine is increasingly requesting simple humble home foods/cooking and snacks. It's unlikely that they would want less comfort foods during a SHTF event.
Yet somehow, every time I see a prepping video/supply list comfort foods are sparse/ or missing from the pantry. That's a problem, we need to facilitate mental health in order to thrive. Here's a few things that I keep stockpiled to support humble home comfort foods,
Sweet: Drink mixes/hot chocolate, real maple syrup, instant pudding, cake/brownie mix, chocolate, sugar dense candies, pie filling, condensed milk, bitters,coffee syrups, baking extracts, extra cinnamon/nutmeg/sugar.
Non Sweet: Sushi rice/wraps/vinegar, ranch packets, pastina and orzo pasta, better than bouillon, large granule finishing salt, dried basil (+ garden seeds), coconut milk, roasted jarred peppers, commercial mac'n cheese, bisquick, shortening, tobasco sauce/sriracha, popcorn kernels, jarred salsa, stone ground mustard, tomato paste, baked beans.
I look forward to hearing your comfort food stockpileable items. Lets support mental health and well being even though our leaders and politicians don't seem to care.
