I made some a few years ago. I still have one left. They are just super hard and rather bland (salty) like a super hard cracker. Not fun to eat really. A bit worthless because they are not something I normally eat.

The best survival foods are those foods you normally eat. Long lasting foods are a bit different unless you normally eat those anyway.

You can dehydrate most foods and either rehydrate them or eat them as is.

Bilatong
Jerky
Pemmican
Dried fruit
Hardtack
Soup powder packs (i.e. instant ramen)

Then there's canning. You can make your own homemade stuff too.

But, seriously, if you want food for survival situations, it had better be stuff you normally eat for 2 reasons. 1, because in a survival situation you don't need the possible GI upset a whole new diet can cause. 2, you need to know how to effectively prepare, ration, eat your foods, and know specifically how it affects your body and energy levels. If you are in a survival situation you don't want to be worrying about your health due to improper diet or diarrhea.

I've been having too much fun with my home grown vegetables. I just finished a 12 ounce volume of soup/stew powder. I still have more I need to grind and add to it, namely the tomatoes and peppers. Everything is already dehydrated. Now all I need is a teaspoon of this powder to add to soups and stews.

What cooking projects have you been up to /ck/?
