    Potatoes don’t require much prep

    You have to peel and cook them, though. That’s a pretty big hurdle for people who would consider regularly eating cereal for dinner.

    I do like instant mashed potatos, though, and they’re fairly cheap.

      I’m talking people on survival mode, as I mentioned at the end of my very short comment just eat canned beans from the tin with no facilities to cook. Also you don’t need to peel potatoes, you can microwave them also, or bury in a fire if you don’t have electricity and are using one for heat.

      Cereal is a scam, it’s expensive and nutritionally pointless.
