The BEST Canned Food to STOCKPILE – Get Prepping NOW!

good afternoon Preppers welcome to Goshen prepping thanks for joining us I always say canned food is by far the best prep you can do it's inexpensive the food's already prepared you can eat it right out of the can if you wanted to without even heating it I mean as long as the can is not compromised it'll last indefinitely make sure the seal is good no rust Etc and also you want to build a store your can so it doesn't go below freezing or above 85 but if you follow those rules then practically speaking canned food will last well all through the apocalypse you can enjoy your corned beef hash during those rough times now out of that there are five specific groups of cans that I think are the best thing to store by far and there's three of them that are not so good so let's jump right into it and see what you want to go ahead and stockpile number one canned meat corned beef hash one of my favorites and granted corn beef hash in itself may not be just meat it has like potatoes and stuff in it too but it's a great prep to have again you can eat it right out of the can it's better warm obviously but corned beef hash is good but that's by far not the only meat some people like spam I don't eat that I do eat the canned chicken though and canned chicken is great especially when you actually accent it with other stuff like maybe some rice or pasta whatever you have but I find right out of the can it may not be the highest grade chicken but it's chicken lots of protein and good for you ooh corned beef who likes cans of corned beef that's really good stuff sardines how many sardine lovers are out there I mean I'll admit they gross me out seeing the fish in there but they are delicious and as long as I get myself past that grossness of eating fish right out of the can or how about canned turkey canned turkey is a lot like the canned chicken except like five times as much it's ridiculous but I mean obviously I like to prepare turkey you know from you know the actual frozen turkey like Thanksgiving or throughout the year but you know just actually having some canned turkey is good but again kind of pricey then of course another one that's great as far as canned meat goes is canned tuna now as far as these canned foods every single one of these I showed you here will last indefinitely as long as the can is not compromised now let's use let's go ahead and pick on tuna the canned tuna for example if you open up after 30 years it's going to be practically just as nutritious I mean the nutrition level goes down a little bit in these but it may actually be a little bit more mushy I mean you open it now and you get some some chunks of tuna in there it's going to be a little bit more on the liquid fried tuna but there's no bacteria in here there's no fungus in here Etc so it can't rot it can't Decay it can't go bad as long as it can seal just fine so all these different Meats definitely a good thing to have and again for us being on keto we stock up in a lot of meats and actually I suggest that if your stock up for really rough times proteins are where it's at anyway you're going to have to have your proteins for survival number two canned veggies canned veggies is such a huge thing for the fact that we all we want able to get fresh produce but I don't know if you know it the studies show that when you look at I mean here I just have French style green beans French cut green beans the ingredients green beans and water sometimes you'll see like green beans and water and salt put in there and that salt's just fine and I know a lot of people don't want to have the extra salt in there because of high blood pressure and I would not go against your doctor for that but for the Regular Joe the average American or wherever you're at having extra salt in there is actually a good thing you want to be able to have your salt in there especially for electrolytes so these things are actually just as nutritious as fresh produce that may shock you that may blow your mind but it's absolute truth so pick your veggies you like French style green beans whole kernel corn I do like corn or how about some sweet peas and the list goes on and on all kinds of veggies you can actually pick and again since it's in the can and it's prepared in here and it's a sterile environment these will certainly last practically speaking forever and they're excellent either just eating straight I used to love just eating just a can of corn straight right out of the can or again accent maybe some of the meats you have or other dishes you have to when time gets rough number three canned potatoes I could have thrown this in the veggie category canned potatoes but potatoes even though some people think they are they're not a vegetable they're a classification all their own so they have their own thing on their own too so we get these at Aldi and uh when the pandemic hit I was I told Ashley I was like hey I wonder how potatoes are in the can so we actually bought one and we love them I mean we're on keto now we don't eat them but if you eat potatoes these are great because it actually has whole potatoes in there again will last indefinitely they're really good for things like potato salad and stuff I imagine you could actually mash them up too there's not a whole lot in here but if you talk about a single person or two people together maybe it'll be enough to make you some mashed potatoes on the side but having these cans of whole potatoes are excellent number four canned beans oh yeah beans are awesome especially have some bushes vegetarian baked beans here baked beans are just the awesomeness because they actually have all the different flavors and juices already in there but obviously you can go with more simpler just some let's see luckies chili beans or you can get some dark red kidney beans or you can get some oh black beans I'm a black bean fan how about you and some light red kidney beans and again the beans will last and definitely in the can as long as they cannot compromise as we mentioned before but just really stress too over time the beans and everything will break down it will be more Bean juiciness you'll still have some Bean chunks in there but some Bean juiciness over time again just as nutritious and be able to Accent whatever you want but having lots and lots of beans to add to your diet is really good because they're also high in protein number five canned soups and chilies we'll start with chili in fact we love Amy's chili medium boring spicy delicious and again these things these accent things so if you actually make some rice during the apocalypse and you put some chili on top of it especially this spicy stuff that's really good stuff this will last and definitely in the can or we can actually go with soups I don't know about you but the old adage that you eat soup while you're sick is true I mean at least on our family so I always like to have some soups these are not the only soups we own but these are Campbell's well yes I would like to have some soup and we picked these ones because the ingredients are practically speaking all natural ingredients and we find a lot of soups actually have a lot of preservatives and stuff in there with a well yes soups are actually really good we do have some of those smaller cheapy cans from Aldi that people have them I couldn't find them they're down there in our basement somewhere but anyway having lots of soups and chilies is good are good because sometimes you just need some kind of food especially if you're sick there's lots of electric electrolytes in these things but give you give yourself a little bit of flavor and variety bill is really good so I put soups and chilies in its own category for that reason all right so with that there's the five cans I highly recommend and I recommend you buy a lot of canned food now I have people all the time saying is your freeze dryer worth it we love our freeze dryer by the way there's nothing better than turning your leftovers into something you can eat later without worrying about it going bad but it's expensive you know three grand for uh for a freeze dryer do you know how many cans of spicy Amy's chili you could buy with that or some peas or corn or corned beef hash you can buy a lot so I always tell somebody if they really really prep a lot get a freeze dryer but if not especially for your beginner prepper canned food is the way to go because again it's already ready to go and good to eat now again everything I've showed you will last practically indefinitely but there are three categories of canned food that well let me explain they may not be what they're cracked up to be when it comes to long term number one canned fruit so let's see we have some jellied cranberry sauce perfect for a Thanksgiving during the apocalypse some yellow cling Peach slices from Aldi and some great value pineapple chunks all these are of course delicious delicious and we learned the hard way years ago we're talking about probably 15 years ago when we're actually stockpiling those giant number 10 cans of beaches we're like these will last us forever no I mean they will they will let's go ahead and just pick on this can of peaches this one I don't think this actually hit the expiration yet um no a couple more years to go stay with the last in this can for years as it is this goes until 2025 and we bought it two years ago so it'll last quite a while but what happens is when it comes to acidic Foods especially fruits they'll actually interact with the lining in the can now the lining of the can makes it so the food doesn't really touch the metal part of the can mind you and we don't have to worry about those kind of things happening but what happens is it leeches in and makes it when it's acidic tastes makes it taste really uh metallicky it's very metallically tasting food and I'll be honest with you it is 100 still edible so this can goes till 2025 I keep it until 2032 that's when the apocalypse hit I eat my Peaches I may not be smiling so much because the peaches taste a little metally metallicky but they're perfectly still edible so they still will last forever that's a good thing so try to pick up whatever fruits and everything you want to have but remember if it's we're talking about being acidic it will taste metallic stilettable but it'll taste metallic because of that number two canned tomatoes for that exact same reason they're acidic tomato paste petite diced tomatoes or in this case oh some more soup obviously I could have put that in the soup category but since it's tomato soup it's highly acidic and it will actually start tasting metallicy so again works well but I'll be honest with you we use these little tomato paste cans which are the best in the world because you just add water and spices to it and they uh will make a lot of sauce for you these ones expired well this one doesn't expire until 2024. but we've been actually going through some of these that expired like a couple years ago yeah 2021 they still taste just fine so they'll actually go long past the Best Buy Date well it's not the expiration date Best Buy again May taste my cat metallicky but is still edible number three canned evaporated milk so I put this in its own category because I'll be honest with you I don't know what's going on what's going on with you evaporated milk because it actually is sterile the actual maybe it's the enzymes in there but anyways there's no bacteria to break it down there's no fungus or anything in there to break it down but with evaporated milk it's interesting even though they say it'll last a year it'll last months after the expiration date I would not put this into the category of lasting forever this one goes until 2024 anyway so it'll last quite a while a few months after that but I mean if you pop it open and it's not milky but now chunky coming out kind of smells kind of awful those kind of weird things I would definitely say maybe evaporated milk at this time is not my best thing to use so I put evaporated milk into its own category and again I'm not sure what's going on there I assume it's probably the enzymes in there we'll start breaking it down so having evaporated milk for a long long terms towards rubbing it the best thing obviously that's outside this video but maybe get powdered milk instead that's some of the things you can do all right so there you go five canned foods you do want to get three canned foods well maybe not it's a little about the questionable side but maybe there's some other categories or maybe there's some favorite canned foods that you love that's actually nurse stockpile in your pantry I'd like to hear about it put them in the comments below okay thank you for watching
