🧺 Pantry Audit (2026): Don’t Just Stockpile — Test the System
Most of us hear about 💸 rising food prices, 🚚 supply chain issues, and general uncertainty… and the default response is usually: “buy more food.”
But here’s the truth 👇
🧠 Most people feel prepared… until they actually audit their pantry.
In this video, I’m walking through how to audit food storage the right way — what’s working ✅, what’s missing ⚠️, and what actually matters if stores stay empty longer than expected.
🔍 The 4 questions that change everything
⏳ 1) Duration: How long does this really last?
🧨 2) What fails first: What breaks down after week 2… not day 2?
🔌 3) Hidden dependencies: What needs water, fuel, or power I’m not accounting for?
🧩 4) Assumptions: What do I think I have… but don’t (like full meals, key ingredients, rotation)?
🧱 The foundation still matters
🌾 Staples like rice, beans, and wheat aren’t exciting — but they’re the backbone.
🥫 The simple 3-tier system
🥪 Tier 1: Ready-to-eat (minimal prep)
🍲 Tier 2: Normal foods you already cook + rotate
🪣 Tier 3: Long-term staples (the deep foundation)
✅ Big takeaway: It’s not about how full your shelves look.
It’s about whether your system holds up when it’s tested.
💬 I’d love input: What do you see missing in most pantries — and what would you prioritize first?
