You can have 5 food "items" (includes condiments, sauces, herbs, spices, etc.) only for the next month (unlimited water and cooking sources/pots & pans, etc.). What would they be?

Mine would be: potatoes, eggs, butter, salt, and pepper.

Potatatoes are a complete food if you eat the skin, except for Vitamin A, which is why I have the butter (and because it is so very delicious and I could fry the eggs in it :-)

Bread, peanutbutter, Jelly, Dry milk, instant potatoes. Ive had to live on these things for a while before and they did great because they are items I can get for free at food pantries, there is no need for cold storage and they are all mix and make as you go.
