That sounds like you've been planning well! Both have a long shelf life. 
You can live well on one and use the cupcakes as trade goods. Good plan!  :-)

I see they have 12 Cans of Hard White Winter Wheat (44 servings per can)....is that already flour or do you have to grind it yourself?

...and no "REAL" meat.

...and they need to have a "conservative" and a "liberal" package deal. The "conservative" package would come with a 1,000 rounds of your favorite calibre and the "liberal package" would come with a cheap handgun and one round.

Flour tends to go rancid fairly quickly, so It is probably not ground.

The liberal package comes with a white flag and a package of government claim forms.

Now it costs $999.

Nope, no inflation here, kids.
