Zomby Appocalypse

28 days later, Resident evil and The walking dead.Just think, your safely inside your house behind the barricaded doors and windows, you have a axe and your favorite shotgun at hand, but no food, what do you do?

OK, so maybe a little far fetched, but what do you do if flooding or snow stop your local Tesco 24hour supermarket opening?

Personally I'm trying to get as much tinned and long life food in now, because last year and the year before we had about a week where we couldn't get to the shops, and they didn't get any deliveries.

Cereal and long life milk, along with tinned food and dried food like pasta and rice etc, along with a months worth of house hold chemicals and bottled gas would be nice.

Why dried food and not frozen? Well its simple, dried food can be stored in cupboards, where as frozen food needs to be stored in a freezer, doesn't have as long before the use by date, and is expensive to keep. Let alone the fact that without power your food will soon thaw and spoil.

The problem I'm having is that the moment something interesting gets brought into the house, someone eats it. Tinned spaghetti, chilli etc lasts about a week before its snaffled by our version of Mr Creosote.

Is anyone else trying to get set for winter, or am I alone in trying to build up a reserve while living hand to mouth?
