There would also be no gasoline in this scenario so how would elders/shut ins/big 4x4 owners make it to the pantry. And as for the left over pumpkin cans... gotta think of the dogs (last hot meal will be our dog ). Our chihuahua loves that canned pumpkin. I would instead of the food pantry idea, give everyone a 17lb bag of rice and the same of beans. It would keep them alive for awhile. That’s what I have sealed up in the attic, or garage I forget.
