My long-term food strategy is to cover one year of items tailored to my needs, along with my family’s plan. For example, because throat problems prevent me from swallowing pills, I mix one of my medications in an applesauce cup. I use single-serving applesauce cups instead of jars for several reasons. Eighteen-count boxes stack much better than other options. I know exactly how many days I have, and if it becomes an issue, I do not need to wash a bowl.



As for the apple sauce brand, I use Mott’s.
