On your > I'm also not suggesting that home canned goods are the best choice for a bug out bag.....<,

I Largely Agree.

And I'd like to mention a Few General Words about that.

What I Don't Like about Them, -Home Canned or Store Got, -is their Weight and Bulk! Especially their Weight! But Volume and Bulk is also a Large Downside Factor regarding them!

On their Plus Side, of course, -There's the Long Range Vacuum Packed Preservability. And the Can's Rugged Durability.

I'm Not all that Familiar with Home Canning, and Acknowledge that this may Involve Pickling Type Preservations, over only Vacuum types.

But their Weight and Bulk go against them!, While their Preservation, Economical and Nutritious Food Availability, Plentitude, and Durability, are Factors in their Favor!
