Cross Ocean Rower's Lesson for Preppers on What Happens When You Believe "Servings per Container" on Food.
Many have seen a small package of potato chips say “Servings per container” on the bag that suggests a lunch pack size bag would have more than one serving. Consider long life camping packs of food and other food products that have this lable. At the end of June a trans-Atlantic rower’s attempt failed as he ran into rough obstacles and had lost a lot of weight because he was going through his packaged food stores 3-4 times faster than planned.
An article by writer, Robert Luckock has an interview with the rower, Victor Mooney (it is not on line).
Mooney said his supply would normally have seen him through the whole voyage. In hindsight, he laughs at how quickly the food disappeared.
“You get these packages that say four servings per bag. I tried that programme for awhile. I mean when you’re out there on that boat, you’re not talking about four servings; one bag is one serving! A little corner of corn and vegetables, telling me that’s my serving for the day, no way!”
He attributes the over-consumption to rough rowing conditions and unfavorable currents after leaving the Canary islands.
So, preppers, when stocking food, consider how much more gets consumed when you do physical labor, hiking etc..
