Made in America Emergency Food, and Made in America Survival Food / Emergency Food.

Emergency personal do their best to keep people comfortable, but the best course of action is to be entirely self-sufficient. If you find you have to evacuate to a shelter, you’ll be a lot more comfortable if you have everything you need for a few days. And, if you have to evacuate you probably won’t have a lot of time to gather supplies, which is why it’s a good idea to keep an old duffle or suitcase packed and ready with these 13 critical supplies in it or next to it:

Bedding – pillows, sleeping bags or a blanket.
Reclining lawn loungers – you may or may not get a cot. Reclining lawn loungers mean you’re off the (Cold? Hard? Wet? Nasty?) floor.
Rubber flip-flops – so you don’t have to walk barefoot, anywhere, ever.
Towels and washcloths – and don’t underestimate the utility of a new or very clean car-washing chamois for use as a towel!
Toilet paper – Take the cardboard tubes out and you can crush an entire package of toilet paper rolls into a single gallon Ziploc bag.
Comfort medicines – such as sleep aids and aspirin
Earplugs and an eye mask – Emergency shelters rarely shut off all the lights.
Entertainment – a deck of cards can keep you busy for days. And, a big, dull paperback like War and Peace or Moby Dick gets a lot more interesting when there’s nothing else to do.
Solar cell phone charger and earphones – if you can keep your smartphone charged you’ll have access to music and games, not to mention being findable by concerned loved ones!
Bicycle lock – Keep your duffle and your chair together in one place.
Emergency hand crank radio – don’t count on emergency personnel to keep everyone constantly updated.
Pets and pet supplies – Never leave your pets behind. Check back in the next post when we share a list of emergency items for pets.
Dehydrated meals – Yes, shelters likely provide food. But there’s no guarantee how much or what kind. If you forget to bring some pet food, keep in mind that Wise Company dehydrated meals come in small Mylar envelopes and don’t require anything but water to rehydrate and enjoy. And, they make excellent bartering tools! (We’ve heard our dehydrated fruit with caramel sauce will get you nearly anything you need when supplies are tight.)

The following is a reply from Wise Company to our question – "Are your products American Made?"

Made with premium ingredients in the U.S.A. to ensure a long shelf life and great taste.

How do you know the products you have listed are Made in the USA?
Before including products in our database we review the advertiser’s website and/or contact them to ascertain the origin of their products. Some advertisers sell both Made in USA products and foreign ones. Therefore we highly recommend you review FAQ 2.

We immediately investigate any complaints regarding deceptive Country of Origin claims. If we determine an advertiser's claim is not truthful we will immediately remove the product/s from our database and suspend our relationship with the Company making the claim.

To document your complaint, email us by using our Contact Us page. We can only respond to complaints that have been submitted in writing.

What does Made in USA mean?
There is no law requiring most products to be labeled Made In USA, or have any other disclosure about the amount of U.S. content. However, for job creation purposes (see our Big Secret tab), if you have a choice between an imported product and one with no country of origin on its label, choose the product without a country of origin over the imported one. This is true because the product without the country origin on its label has at least some American labor in its content and the imported one most likely does not.

Note: Imported products are required by law to country of origin on their label and products partially Made In USA do not. To answer this question completely reviewing our Labeling Tips 1, 2 & 3. These tips are accessible from scrolling to the bottom of our home page clicking Browse All Tips button.
