I rotate all my cans but yesterday I found a can of Campbell's tomato soup in the wrong spot. It was dated 2012! I know y'all are like me an thought let's see. When opened it smelled good and the color was a little darker. Cooked it up and tastes great. I waited a day and then gave the rest to my picky wife. She didn't know the difference. No matallic taste at all, still living

I live alone, and have stocked many single serve cans of veggies, baked beans, Corned Beef Hash and Pineapple chunks. The reason for buying small cans is that there are no leftovers to refrigerate if the power is out.

One thing I do is when buying canned food is when I get home I immediately write the date code on the can with a sharpie pen. It saves time and you can at a glance pick a can to use first when rotating your food supply.

Can food is a great prep. The water can be used to cook rice in and the can fruit juice can be used to make pancakes or liquid for baking. Dried food will require water that may not be readily available to cook with. Small tip. If you buy the cans with pull tabs, do not stack on top of each other. Place a piece of corrugated cardboard between your can stacks to prevent pressure on the cans below.

Don't forget to have at least TWO can openers on hand!

It’s so great when you can watch a 10 minute video and leave with a wealth of useful information! This was great.

Many years ago I had a nutritionist tell me that with canned vegetables most of the nutrients are contained in the water that it was cooked and packed in. The sweet water in a can of corn is actually very tasty.

[fiendish]

A few weeks ago, I didn't have much in my house to eat so I rummaged through the pantry and found a can of Hormel chili. It was from 2017. I wondered what condition it would be and opened it. I tasted it cold, and it seemed fine. I heated it with some extra canned beans, and it was perfectly fine. No tin aftertaste, nothing nasty. Bottom line, this product was good a whole 6 years after the expiration date.

[elliotmann]

I know that I need to store up some canned foods for survival. My wife doesn't want to have them stored. She thinks they go bad and don't taste great, even when new. I keep my canned foods stored in a locked shed so she can't complain. I told her she can eat bugs when the food runs out.

[charlesamboy]

Also, the liquid in canned vegetables will add to your hydration if your drinking water is not available. Don't pour it out. Many of the nutrients are in the liquid.

[BigBlue]

I honestly try to do a bit of prepping every day as a routine. Some days are bigger than others, but even doing just a little all adds up. Two days ago I bought another case of canned tuna fish, yesterday I bought another 3 month supply of survival food. Today I got more 5 gallon pails for container gardening. Tomorrow who knows what I'll be doing, but I'll try to do a bit more. I check a few times a day to see if there are any new videos here. Keep 'em coming, there's no telling how many lives you may be saving by sharing your knowledge. Thanks!

[coachace]

Yes, I was storing canned fruits many years ago, and found the canned pineapples were the first to actually show cann degradation. The acids really did a number on the seals and metal. We're sticking to bottled "canned" fruits, but store mostly peaches, now. Also, I agree about the canned evaporated milk. I would definitely go with powdered milk for the long storage. Powdered milk brings back memories of growing up in the 70s, too.

[lordtimothymichel]

Take your can and drop it into hot water for a few minutes before opening it up, your food will be warm and you can eat it right from the can. During the war half of the guys ate 2 or more meals that way. We always had hot food. I'll start listing more food ideas that we had from the Army. It seems we need to show our civilian brothers what they may need to care for themselves and the wives and children. there's more than one way we can defend our folks.

[lauraann]

Me again- Alaska Granny just did a video on something called FILLED Evaporated Milk. She got it unknowingly at Dollar Tree. If it says FILLED on the label you don't want it. Oils or something are added to it and it's specifically for baking. Not for use in cereal or coffee for instance. I was glad to get that info and happy to pass it on.

[roberts]

My bias may be a factor of being from Quebec, Canada - but cans or bottles of maple syrup would be my addition to your list. Unopened, will last forever. If it crystallizes, heat whole container in water - voilá, ready for use.

[graciebest]

Thanks so much for your down-to-earth helpful information. I'm a prepper, like everyone here, and my stacked-perfectly canned foods in plentiful supply truly do give me a sense of peace and gratitude when I look at them. To others, I'm a hoarder. But when the world goes dark, and they aren't prepared, they will be happy for some of my canned foods! And I'd willingly share of course. Recently our power went out and the wells around here are pumped using electricity, meaning no power, no WATER! But not at my house. I had water stored also, and a huge generator, so I had basic light, water, etc. When I charged my neighbor's phones, I admit to being inwardly just a tiny bit smug about it, but overwhelmingly was happy I could help them. Hope they learn to start prepping!

[wingwalker]

I went to a restaurant supply store and bought a lot of #10 cans of spaghetti sauce, whole tomatoes, diced tomatoes, crushed tomatoes and tomato sauce. I opened them and re-canned them into my glass jars. Now my tomato products will last for many more years.

[jdshl]

The problem with canned evaporated milk, and all hydrated milk for that matter, is that milk breaks down on its own pretty quickly. So yeah, powdered milk is the best way to go when it comes to stockpiling milk.

[Montanafelines]

I need to say this: I read a study on spam, and it’s the best prepared meat you can buy. No added fillers, no snouts, feet, sinews etc. I’m not crazy about it, but it is actually one of the healthiest choices! And ifyoure down to the wire, meats meat right? Besides the fact nothing better than sliced spam fried, with an egg on the sammich lol

Also, the canned potatoes, sliced and browned in butter makes them delicious!

[creakycracker]

Be careful of pull - tab cans...Armour recalled some items recently and I had already gotten food poisoning from the Vienna Sausages and found 2 cases with the lot code. I noticed the pull tabs on the lot seemed easier to open, and (Being a Die-maker myself) MY opinion was the dies that perforated the aluminum cans struck too deep and allowed air in the product. Pull tab cans anger me anyway as the product is harder to remove without damage, but these days there is no way to avoid these cans, so try to not stack them while storing to keep them from pressing on the can tops. Happy Prepping!
