Today I discussed food prep for COVID-19 with Katie Barbaro. Katie is a cartoonist, comedian, occupational therapist and overall wonderful human being living in New York City. Since the Coronavirus has really started to ravage the city, I have been contacting all of my friends in the city and going over how much food they should have in their apartments so they don't have to rely on going out to the supermarket during the upcoming scary days. It's a surprising amount. I create a spreadsheet with Katie and we do the math on how many calories she and her roommate will need to survive for 90 days. Each of them are budgeting to eat 1,500 calories a day, so 3,000 combined. 90 X 3,000 = 270,000 calories. Each pound of dried food is roughly 1,560 calories, and each gallon of cooking oil is 25,000 calories, so we ended up settling on her buying an extra 50 lbs of lentils and 5 gallons of oil to supplement what she had. Many online outlets of bulk foods are already sold out, and most stores as well, but rainydayfoods.com still has some and is a good resource, for now. As always, email [email protected] with your questions, and enjoy the show.
