I've been meaning to put together some sort of 72 hour type kit for a while. In southern illinois there really aren't alot of natural disasters I worry about and I figure I could live off the food in the house for quite a while but I figured that hey it can't hurt.
Anyway my problem is I have celiac disase, I can't eat any foods containing gluten. This includes wheat (remember this includes breads, pastas, and gravy usually), oats, and barley. Alot of the really good long term foods like those pilot's biscuits, power bars, granola bars, and mre's seem to be largely wheat or oat filled. What sort of food would you suggest that should last a long time and not ruin my digestive system when I eat it? Rice is fine but I was hoping for something that didn't have to be cooked. I'm guessing thats mostly going to leave me with like canned meats, fruits, veggies, and peanut butter. Any other ideas for something with a bit higher calorie count like the pilots crackers that I might be able to eat?
