Came across a couple short videos on X by a woman who specializes in prepping materials. In these videos, she presents a list of 9 essential items to stockpile in your pantry that have an indefinite shelf life, as in they never expire, and the many purposes each item can be used for.
Nothing really surprising in this list, but is presented here for informational purposes...
1. Activated Charcoal
2. Honey
3. Salt
4. Distilled White Vinegar
5. Pure Ethanol
6. Bentonite Clay
7. Baking Soda
8. Corn Starch
9. Sugar
Bonus -10. Pure Vanilla Extract (>35%)
Just happened on this video recently which was very timely, since the southern US has had some record cold. While so far we have been fortunate with no power outages - one never knows. This was a brief video taken by a family (Provident Prepper) to show simple ways to stay warm in your home if the power goes out and you don't have a fireplace / generator, etc.
Some notes from the video:
1. Secure your home to keep the heat in and the cold out. (Cover windows/ doors with plastic sheeting)
2. Create microenvironments inside of your home. (Set up a camping tent)
3. Dress appropriately in layers to stay warm.
4. Drink warm liquids and eat hot foods.
5. Get up and move around.
6. Explore potential heat sources. (See below)
