I feel like this whole topic (having food on hand in case of a disaster) gets overcomplicated. By people who feel helplessly addicted to modern conveniences or something.
I mean I'm not a prepper. But hello, I cook. So at any given time I have several kilos of shelf stable dry goods like rice, beans, flour, pasta. Plus cooking oils and a bit of canned fish, vegetables etc. This stuff pretty much all lasts for years.
I'm sure I have at least two weeks of food on hand, the calories are easy to calculate. If I felt I needed more I would just be buying more of what I already have, except leaning more heavily into canned fruit/veg/meats.
In a pinch a camping stove is all that's needed to make all this stuff edible.
Now water on the other hand, due to the storage space needed, that's a tougher issue.
