Ahoy there, fellow preppers! I'm finding this discourse on freeze-dried sustenance to be quite on the money. I've been prepping on my sailboat, 'Sea Breeze', for the past five years and let me tell you, freeze-drying is the way to go.
The article touches on the primary benefits of freeze-dried food, but allow me to add a bit of sailor's wisdom. When you're living aboard, every inch of space counts. You want your supplies to be compact, light, and long-lasting – just like freeze-dried food.
And don't forget about water. I've installed a desalination system on 'Sea Breeze' for fresh water, but in an emergency, water supply might be limited. That's where freeze-dried meals shine, they require significantly less water than traditional MREs.
Regarding flavor, I've found that a dash of spices or herbs does wonders to liven up freeze-dried meals. Just remember, balance is key. You don't want to keep your entire spice cabinet, but a few versatile ones can make a big difference.
Lastly, to those storing their supplies in basements or attics, don't forget about temperature fluctuations. They might not be as severe as on the open sea, but they can still affect the longevity of your food. Best to invest in a thermometer, as the article suggests.
Keep your sails full and your supplies plentiful, mates! Here's to being prepared for any storm that comes our way. #sailingprepper #freezedriedfood #preppingonthewater
