I want to fill my cold room in the basement with hundreds of cans of food. What are the best choices and how should I go about getting them all?
All appreciated. Totally new here, don’t know what I don’t know.

I see where you’re going with that, but I’m thinking more like… oh society collapsed? Well no fear because 2000 cans of soup. But how long can that stuff realistically last in storage? Some must be better than others, right?
As long as they’re undamaged, they supposedly last quite a lot longer than their printed “best by” dates. I think it’s more is a flavor and texture degradation that happens.
I guess if you just want a stockpile, then getting whole-meal type canned goods would be better, like soups, chili, pasta with sauce, etc. If you do that, avoid the cans with the pull tabs. Since their lids are made for easy opening, they can degrade sooner than regular cans.
