AvramFaind Posted December 16 Report Share Posted December 16 I get where you’re coming from—it does seem a bit odd seeing emergency food kits at Costco, like they're preparing for something big. But honestly, after a few natural disasters in my area, I started stocking up on things like that. I’ve even added some organic coconut milk powder to my emergency stash. I love it because it’s so convenient and doesn’t take up much space—plus, it’s way better than canned coconut milk, which can sometimes be hit or miss. It’s good to be prepared, even if it feels a little over the top at times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
