Just a suggestion for you people to consider.

I've been buying cans of soup for five years now. Basically about $1 a can.

I buy 100 pound bags of rice and beans.

To suppliment the soup.

Gravity water filter.

A TV dish . (Dish network, Direct TV etc )

I use window tint ( MIrror ) to line it.

Cast Iron Dutch Oven.

So here is the dope :

1 can of soup and 1 pound of rice feeds a family of four for one day. HOW ?

gravity feed the rain water into the dutch oven

half gallon in the oven hanging on the 'arm' of the dish above the mirrored portion collecting and focusing the sun on it.

Boils in a few minutes.

add rice or beans

remove and add soup.

Done.

3 months of food (soup)in a single container and 100lb pound bag of rice or beans.

Cheep and delicious.

I farm now, but I don't grow rice ;-)

>According to the Can Manufacturer’s Institute, “canning is a high-heat process, so it preserves food and prevents the growth of any bad organisms. Canned food is forever safe, but it’s a quality issue when you have a 'best-by' or 'use-by' date.” You should use your canned foods within a couple of years for the best quality of the product.
