Food storage has been around a long time. Everytime we get into some economic trouble in the US or potential for a flu epidemic I hear people running around saying, see the Prophets have been warning us about this. Maybe people ought to look more to individual cases as to why the counsel and not that they are predicting major calamities right around the corner.
I'm trying to counter the idea that there is no possible case where food storage would be necessary for a well-off family.

Without further deliveries, it takes less than two weeks for a city to run out of food.
