Many people consume far more extra calories than their activity levels require. <br /><br />This is one of the main reasons so many people have weight problems...they're not burning all the extra calories they are consuming.<br /><br />It may also be a simple matter of including an extra serving of a food item to bring up the calorie levels.<br /><br />Thanks.<br /><br />RWriverwalkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01575212890278793911noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4858350933853662775.post-32757203037141830492012-07-20T20:04:58.752-05:002012-07-20T20:04:58.752-05:00I never really realized how many cans and items it...I never really realized how many cans and items it takes to represent 2000 calories. I'm just starting to get into storing food and it seems that the storage space I had is not going to be big enough now. Also, I'm trying to stay away from refrigeration and anything that relies on power for that matter. My goal is to have all foods that are easy to store and can be stored in warm or cold conditions well. I'm trying to keep it simple I guess. Thanks for the post.

But I think the tuna in olive oil is the best bet. It's got a few more calories and the added benefits of olive oil in your system.Schteveohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03491385492703313601noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4858350933853662775.post-87154997459440630622012-07-14T08:02:22.125-05:002012-07-14T08:02:22.125-05:00To: Machinist

As I mentioned to anonymous, it is actually going to take a well balanced meal to insure that the necessary nutrients and calories are included.<br /><br />Food requirements will also have to be balanced with activity levels as well.<br /><br />Thanks.<br /><br />RWriverwalkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01575212890278793911noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4858350933853662775.post-32177808236206505742012-07-14T07:55:47.885-05:002012-07-14T07:55:47.885-05:00To: anonymous 8:00

My can shows about 180 in a 7 ounce can, 60 per serving and 3 servings per can. That is packed in water.<br /><br />Calories alone are not a complete measure. High calories from carbohydrates will cause a blood sugar spike and a serge of insulin in response. This will lock up that sugar in fat cells and cause blood sugar to crash, leaving one extremely hungry for more food as the food already eaten is locked up in fat cells and not accessible. Proteins and fat will provide fuel without the spike in blood sugar that will leave you weak with hunger. That tuna might be a better bet than it looked like at first glance.Machinisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04823033143224574421noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4858350933853662775.post-50426527230631678012012-07-13T08:00:55.854-05:002012-07-13T08:00:55.854-05:00My food storage plan is not to eat tuna alone (unl...My food storage plan is not to eat tuna alone (unless things got really desperate). It would be the protein component of a meal, such as, dare I say it, a tuna salad sandwich.<br /><br />Makes me wonder though, whether it would be possible to make mayonnaise or a similar type of dressing using powdered egg powder. Hmmmm!<br /><br />I can tell you that canned tuna is nice with coucous, or quinoa, if you don't have bread.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4858350933853662775.post-84106286434963830022012-07-12T14:04:58.587-05:002012-07-12T14:04:58.587-05:00I'm still a huge fan of variety in food storag...I'm still a huge fan of variety in food storage but I certainly see the usefulness of storing foods that are high in calories.
