To Do:
- Read more about sugar.
- Make some treats for your family to rotate through your sugar.
- Update your 3-month supply sheet.
To Purchase:
- 40 lbs of white sugar.
- one extra of the cleaners you use most often (all-purpose, Windex, etc.).
- something from your 3-month supply list.
- Powdered Fruit Drink comes in many different
flavors and can be used in daily use and in times of emergency as stored
water can have a funny taste. Powdered drink mixes can be stored for
up to 3 years if unopened.
- Brown Sugar can be used in many baked goods and
even some bread recipes. It can be stored up to 6 months. Be careful to
seal it tightly between uses if you have opened your sugar. Some
people choose to store white sugar and molasses to make their own brown sugar to avoid dealing with shelf life issues.
- Molasses and Corn Syrup are used as sweeteners in
many recipes. Store according to your families needs. Molasses may be
something you have never used, nor ever will use. If this is the case,
don’t feel the need to store it. If you choose not to store brown
sugar, you will want to store MORE molasses in order to make your own.
- Flavored Gelatin is used in molded desserts and salads and to thicken cold soups.
- Jams or Preserves will be covered later (Fruits and Vegetables)
- Granulated Sugar is used in almost all food storage recipes and is very important to store. Sugar has a shelf life of 20+years.
- Honey is another sweetener found in a lot of food
storage recipes. Honey is more expensive then sugar and usually acts as
a substitute for sugar in breads. Some people feel it is healthier to
use honey than sugar.
