    These shouldn’t be “extra” really. It should be food you eat already, so it’s basically “Keep your pantry stocked” level of “preparing”.

    And I get it, money is tight. 3 minutes without air 3 hours without shelter 3 days without water 3 weeks without food

    Start with water. You can upcycle 2L soda bottles (Rinse them, and don’t think about using upcycled milk jugs). And honestly, most Americans are storing 5 days+ of calories right on their bodies.

    After water, buy 1 or two extra canned goods each shopping trip. Or a bag of rice. Or a box of Ramen.
