Purchasing five months worth of food is expensive. Buying in bulk, and taking major advantage of sales, I was able to purchase everything I needed for less than I expected.
Shipping food is very expensive, and trying to fit everything into a reasonably sized box takes trial and error. I planned on using USPS priority mail flat rate boxes. This limited how much room I had per box. I was really worried about not being able to fit enough calories into a box to make it worth my while. It all worked out though.
Each box will contain 5 days worth of resupply. Those few resupplies where I need more than 5 days worth I will receive two boxes. All total I will be receiving 25-30 resupply boxes.
My list of food resupply items are below:
weight/calories
organic dehydrated potato flakes 16oz 3360
organic dehydrated black bean flakes 16oz 1690
trader joes raw almond butter 16oz 2660
organic qunoia 12oz 1290
trader joes swiss milk choc 7oz 1100
stakich raw honey 20oz 1667
organic just blueberry powder 8oz 800
organic just straw/ban powder 8oz 800
organic just veggies 8oz 800
nativas coconut water powder 3oz 350
kind bars 6oz 380
wildplanet tuna 3oz 360
jarrow whey protein 6oz 600
organic toaster pastries 11oz 1260
trader joes organic condensed milk 14oz 1300
This works out to around 3700 calories per day. Hopefully that will be enough to keep me from looking like Christian Bale's character in The Machinist. I also will be hitting all available restaurants along the way.
