Not a prepper but living a quarter mile from the San Andreas fault, being prepared has always been drilled into us. I have found freeze dried food in the form of mountain house meals. 30 year shelf life if kept at room temperature is amazing and the meals I have tried have tasted pretty good. Definitely edible on a camping trip. I have maybe 2 months supply with the mountain house plastic buckets and a stash of peanut butter. Water is the big thing so I have a stack of bottled water that gets rotated. Again, enough to last for 2 months. The means to protect me and mine is also important. My view on protection is my own but recent history during hurricane Katrina and the LA riots show that groups of people will form up and start looting, or worse.
I think you need a inflatable rubber raft and a life jacket as well..,..:B
