What you'll do with it
- Work out your family's food number: about 2,100 calories a day per adult or teen, about 1,470 per child under 12 - 7,140 a day for 2 adults and 2 children.
- Count what is already on your shelves from the Nutrition Facts labels, then buy only the gap - week 1 is 3 days of no-cook food.
- Grow it a little each shop: one extra of 2-3 things you already eat, on a set weekly amount, with the 30-Day Shopping Calendar.
- Keep it cool, dark and dry - about 70°F or below - with new food to the back and the oldest in front.
- Check dented or old cans against the Keep or Toss page, and eat in order with the power out: fridge, then freezer, then pantry.

Questions people ask
- Is this a printed book?
- No - it's an instant PDF. Print it at home on US Letter paper, or keep it on your phone.
- Does it work where I live?
- Yes. The guides are written for American homes in every state: gallons, °F, US weather and US stores.
- Do I need to buy a lot of gear?
- No. Most first steps use what's already in your house. When you're ready to buy, the guide shows what comes first.
- Is this medical advice?
- No. It's planning information. Talk to your doctor, pharmacist or equipment supplier about medicines and medical devices.
- How do I get it?
- Right after you pay: a download on the thank-you page, and an email with your download links. The links keep working.
- How is this different from the Personal Plan?
- A guide shows you how to get ready. The Personal Plan does the math for your household - your gallons, your days of food, your battery size and a shopping list.
