Create a snack pack. Use a plastic box with a lid or a basket and fill it with snacks your family enjoys. Consider fruit snacks, granola bars, dried fruits, nuts, and even a few candies. Rotate these in lunches or when snacking. When you need to evacuate grab your snack pack for eating in the car or when you arrive at a shelter. You do not want to be digging through Five-Day kits for food when stuck in long lines of traffic with everyone else trying to get out of town. Snack packs are also great to grab and enjoy during a road trip.
