If you are in a grocery store being looted, and you focus only on getting nutrition, not hydration, what food do you go for?
I don't know, but the best emergency foods I know are GORP (granola oatmeal raisins peanuts) and butter/margarine/lard whatever. In school arctic explorers who traversed Baffin Island once gave a presentation, aside from snow-baths I remember that he said a great food source is blocks of margarine, the ones wrapped in tin-foil, about 1 inch by 4 inches by 4 inches. They had pictures of them eating a block like you would a candy bar.
Well, that's my ideas. I know I'm missing protein, but I hope other people will have good ideas on that, and other great foods for emergency.
It just makes me queasy to think that people were so, unfortunate, as to loot potato chips.
