What foods to stock up on for the winter when there is a risk of a long-term power outage: a list

Absolutely every Ukrainian will face a power outage and a problem when food spoils very quickly in the refrigerator and can be dangerous. Experts recommend that Ukrainians stock up on long-term storage products that will remain fresh regardless of whether there is electricity or not. It is worth noting that you should always have food that you can take with you to the shelter.

The FoodOboz editorial team has selected a list of the most essential products that do not spoil for a long time without refrigeration and electricity.

The products:

breads and cookies

chocolate

any canned food

dried fruits

freeze-dried foods (cereals, soups, noodles)

nuts, seeds

You can cook food, but make sure that your family can eat all the prepared dishes at once so that they don't spoil!

Even in the absence of electricity, keep ready-to-eat and perishable foods in the refrigerator, as even when the refrigerator is turned off, it remains cold for several hours, and try not to open the refrigerator door frequently.

In winter, you can store food even on the balcony or outside, if you have the opportunity.
