However, you still need a survival kit. Just in case your power goes out for a few days or your car breaks down in a snowstorm. Yeah, we know it’s not as much fun as being prepared for the End of Days, but it's a lot more realistic.
In a post-9/11 world, there are ample places to get superior survival kits, The Ready Store carries the kit seen here, replete with water purification tablets and a radio powered by solar or hand crank. Choosier survivalists can go to the website iPrepare.com, which has a feature for building your own kit, click-by-click. Absurdly, not even these two fine sites offer a cookbook with recipes for rat meat.
