It's not really clear what is IN those 36 buckets.

Good stuff.

Depends on if you still have access to potable water and a cooking source.

36 five gallon buckets? That would take up a couple pallets of space.

Doesn't eveyone?

Just like to add that I'd certainly be skeptical about plopping down almost $6000 for food of unknown quality. Below is a more affordable plan with more familiar food for those who want to put something by. Prices may have gone up a little, I found this a long time ago on the internet somewhere:

Food Storage for $5 a Week

This list should be a basic amount to sustain 2 people for one year. For every 2 people in your family, add $5 more and double the amount of the item you are buying that week.

Some costs may have changed, but the general concept and close estimate should still be valuable.

Week 2: 5 cans cream of chicken soup
Week 3: 20 lbs of sugar

Some weeks you will have leftover change. Save the change each week in a kitty to be used for the weeks you may exceed $5 (like wheat, milk, etc). Also, if you find something on sale, you may want to skip ahead and purchase that item and cross it off the list.

After you have completed this list, you will end up with:
-500 lbs of wheat
-180 lbs of sugar
-40 lbs of powdered milk
-12 lbs of salt
-10 lbs of honey
-5 lbs of peanut butter
-45 cans of tomato soup
-15 cans of cream of mushroom soup
-15 cans of cream of chicken soup
-24 cans of tuna
-21 boxes of macaroni & cheese
-500 aspirin
-1000 multi-vitamins
-6 lbs of yeast
-6 lbs of shortening
-12 lbs of macaroni

And what do you say when the rats make their way into your stores? Plus, I don't see ammo on there. Can I just break in and steal yours instead of having to store all that stuff?

Sure, go ahead. I can't remember which cans have the poison mushrooms, though. lol

Oh, well, nevermind...
