How to preserve food in a survival situation

Dried fruits are great for snacking on during an emergency because they don't require any preparation. They are lightweight and easy to take with you. You don't have to worry about weight gain.

If you do decide to add preservatives, try adding salt first. Salt helps prevent mold growth. Next, add vinegar. Vinegar kills bacteria and inhibits mold growth.

First, cut the food into small pieces. You can use a kitchen knife or scissors. You can use scissors or a knife to pack your items well.
