Every new chapter of life is an adventure, and it took plenty of thought, research, preparation and hard work to get to this moment. So we've determined that today is monumental for us as we officially turn the page, and announce the launch of the Buy Emergency Foods blog. Long before this exciting moment we realized that the foundation of being truly prepared for an urgent situation consisted of three basic necessities: Food: Most people can go longer without food than they can without water, but the two work in tandem. Sustaining your energy with simple to prepare meals that are healthy and nutritious is critical in an emergency situation. Water: In early 2010, the water crisis in Massachusetts demonstrated that even reliable water sources are vulnerable to contamination. Possessing the ability to access clean, drinkable water is the most vital component to life and survival. Power: Availability to power provides the means to generate a familiar level of comfort by allowing us to produce heat, light, and a means to charge the many devices that can help us in perilous circumstances. And so the quest began to bring these things together. We set out with diligence to find quality products, align simple solutions, and change the way people think about being ready for an emergency. Buy Emergency Foods is the result of our efforts, and we're glad you're here. If you care about emergency preparedness and disaster food insurance, are curious to learn more about survival gear, or are just looking for ways to become more aware, we truly hope you will tune in to this blog often. As we work with passion to complete the Buy Emergency Foods site over the next month, we will continually provide information, product reviews and comparisons, news about events and giveaways, and much more. In the meantime, we hope to help you discover something amazing, learn something new, and find the solution you've been looking for, as Buy Emergency Foods strives to set the standard for a new level of preparedness.
