Food Storage Calculator

Found this on the Emergency Preparedness Center website.  It calculates how much food you will need for one year based on the number and age of family members.  I thought it was interesting and I apologize if it has been posted before.

Looks like the same calculator the LDS uses. It's ok if you plan on eating bread and beans for a year.

A member of my group buy, used this to make our last purchase.  We were given a code for free shipping just for useing it.  Wouldn't hurt to try.

That calculator has been around for a while, in various permutations.

It's a very useful tool for folks just starting out to get a ballpark idea of how much staple foodstuffs are required for storage.

You have to tailor the results it churns out to your own family's cooking/eating habits, but it's a great starting place.
