Freeze-dried vegetables are more expensive than frozen, but if you’re without power and don’t have access to a garden or grocery store, they can add welcome variety to an emergency kit. This bucket contains corn (which is technically a grain), peas, green beans, and broccoli and holds 120 servings. Veggies are not a high-calorie food, so depending on your appetite and what else you have on the menu, you probably won’t get that many servings in practice. They have a shelf life of up to 25 years, so you don’t have to eat them today in lieu of dessert.
