Food Storage Made Easy: Updating My 72 Hour Kits

  • Rebecca · 1 year ago
    I use the October general conference as a reminder to rotate my 72-hour kits. I have also been adding a new kit every year until I have enough for every family member old enough to carry one. Mine are in backpacks and are kinda heavy due to the water and juice in them.

    I can't seem to get the link to the printable shopping list to work. Any suggestions?

    Thanks for letting us know Jen. I had put the link in wrong (oops). It should be fixed now.

    I change my 72 hr. kits every General Conference. That way all the food is still good to use and don't go to waste. My kids use this food to snack on during conference sessions. We even use the mini lasagna/spaghetti meals to eat for lunch. The rest of the food gets used in school lunches. My kids get really excited when we open our 72 hr. kits.

    I'm the same as Kimberly. It makes it so much easier to remember when to re-do our kit. We open ours up every General Conference and the kids LOVE it. They gobble it up within 2 days. I'm sure in an emergency though we could make it last 3 days... I hope. :)
