Calories: The Foundation of Resilience

At Prep Tiny, we believe calories are the foundation of physical function, cognitive performance, and morale during a disruption. Our approach to food storage focuses on building resilient systems that fit your daily life and your specific space constraints.

The Prep Tiny Food Philosophy

• Store What You Already Eat: Preparedness works best when it builds on existing habits. We emphasize items you already enjoy, scaled for shelf life.

• The Rotation Rule: Preparation shouldn’t lead to waste. We prioritize a "First-In, First-Out" system to ensure your pantry stays fresh and your investment is utilized.

• Eat Fresh First: We believe in prioritizing fresh food whenever possible. Shelf-stable choices should serve as healthy alternatives that are rotated with fresh food to prevent waste, while also remaining available as reliable options when fresh food is unavailable.

• Quality Standards: We believe in prioritizing organic ingredients, limited added sugars, and reasonable sodium levels whenever possible within realistic financial constraints.

• The Power-Down Plan: We believe in using freezers and refrigerators while they are available, but we maintain a plan for sustainment if the power goes out.

• Expert Advice: Our goal is to provide practical frameworks. Always follow the specific nutritional, medical, or health advice of your healthcare professionals.
