It know that we're mostly looking at simple ingredients, but it might be worth it to see how much we can flex that. It looks like we have most of the makings for bread, but would it be worth it to ask for bread outright? It's used as an ingredient in its own right for plenty of things just like a lot of other foods. Is it gonna serve us better trying to reconstitute something like that and maybe free up some space? What about tomato sauce? Or jelly?
There are definitely people here who know more about nutrition and all that, but if it will help at all, I can give a list of what we'd typically get in an MRE, so we've got some kind of guideline on what would likely keep us going reliably for some perspective.
Entree: the main course. Usually some kind of basic pasta or stew
Side dish: rice, corn, fruit, or mashed potatoes, etc.
Cracker or Bread with some kind of spread, usually jelly, peanut butter, or cheese.
You'd also get a dessert of some kind, couple pieces of candy and a hot sauce or seasoning. It was all very, very basic. You get tired of it, but it will keep you moving. It's important to note that what we had was all properly packaged and preserved. We probably won't have that luxury unless we're real specific.
Some people had valid point in saying we don't know what the kitchen situation might be like when we get where we're going, so foods we can eat cooked or not cooked could be smart. If I was gonna make a list based on that it would have go be something like this.
- crackers or bread - peanut butter or plain old nuts - organic, full fruit jelly or some kind of dried fruit - jerkied or canned meat of some kind - tomato sauce - powdered milk - bottled water (can't say how safe it is to assume we'll just have it. And the bottles will be useful) - a dry cheese - coffee powder - ?
I know that's probably a nightmare for the cooks in the house.
