Limited canned goods here but lots of dried legumes, peppers, flour, salt, yeast, milk/egg powder (back up only), yeast, vitamins and at least ten cases of cat food. Freezer is pretty full and generator is on natural gas. When OK runs out of gas we have bigger issues. Did anyone mention primers?

We have two refrigerators. Probably about 1 week. Not much bread for sandwiches, but we recently stocked up on sandwich cheeses.

Like the other person said, the real issue would be food for the cats and their litter.

I have food storage for about 4 to 6 months but that is long term storage such as rice, beans etc and seasonings all items are vacuum packed and stored in food grade buckets. Regular foods I proably have about two weeks or so.

I don't have anywhere near what I want for water storage.

3 days or so. We don't have a car and the grocery store is a mile and a half away, so we buy only as much as we can carry home by foot.

With a big freezer and walk-in pantry we could last a month. There are some things we would run out of like eggs, flour and fresh vegetables, however. It would be boring meals after a while but we could survive.

Easily a couple of months ... although the diet would be rather monotonous and less balanced with each day.
