Emergency Food Stock

Four days ago: two bags full of groceries neatly placed on the curb, on my way to recycling center and then post office. I had to turn back and bring them home first.

In the end it wasn't that exciting, but I won't say dissappointing. Just that where I had hoped for soups the big cans were fruits which we don't eat and a part of the volume was taken up by shoes and textiles. Good for kilo price though. This lot here is what I kept. For now.

I also don't like the dried soup, but the last time I tried I didn't add much. Maybe it will taste better if I use it as a base stock of a really home made soup. Omelet mix never tried. Not to judge yet.

Very happy with pasta, rice an couscous. Machine soap always welcome.

It looks like the giver had stocked up on discounts, possibly for the Covid19 lockdown in 2020. As all products have an expiry date between 2022 and 2024. Nothing to worry about and safe to eat.

Bag made me think: expat leaving or just going home for the Holidays clearing out?

There never had been any official advice for making emergency supplies for the lockdown, but a lot of people did. Sheep behaviour. Now with the situation in the East of Europe there is and I don't know what to think of it. But with this I will easily last the recommended 72 hours.
