Would it be a good idea to consider stockpiling soda/pop/cola in case of a shtf scenario? It's liquid calories and has a longer shelf life than the cans let on. Plus it's been shown that the human body holds on the water longer than plain water. Why should I not have a couple drums of mountain dew ala Dale?

I'd prefer something caffeinated but I do love a good sarsaparilla

If recommend storing sprite syrup the sprite syrup for stomach aches and shit, but it really is a hassle to store regular soda and make soda.
Jace Phillips
I mean what's wrong with having a pallet of soda cans?

Patrician taste my friend.

i think what you're looking for are syrup packs. they last longer than the precarbonated bottled colas and only require a co2 canister to carbonate them. then again, they don't last forever either. there's definitely better nonperishable things you should invest in like liquor. however, if you think you and your crew would like that sweet succulent tooth rot, you should make your own. it would only require you stockpiling extra sugar, brewer's yeast, and cola extract (different from the syrup packs). but if you're getting that far into it, you'd be better off brewing beer. "small beer" has a low enough alcohol content that it will hydrate you instead of dehydrate you like normal beer, it retains the same nsaid properties of any other alcohol, and contains that high caloric property you're seeking.

Be goddamn sure to store them in dark and cool place as you can or they wont last well at all.

You have coffee instant for that, you do stockpile coffee instant, right user?

Soda stream will do for sodas what 3d printing has done for assault rifles
Jacob Gonzalez
You're gonna need a few gerbils to breed and eat.
Connor Williams
making beer out of soda syrup would be a pretty neat project
Evan Fisher
scare everybody but otherwise accomplish nothing?

How could you do this to me Puff-puff?

Not that bad of an idea for a short term shtf for poorer people honestly. You can buy off brand 2 liter soda in my state for less than a dollar.
William Lopez
i've heard of instances where people made cola at home and didn't store it properly. when they'd go to drink it, they'd get a mouthful of bittersweet alcohol.
Cooper Hill
I would trade ammo for the sweet nectar of diet coke post collapse
Lincoln Lewis
I'll settle for plain old floor-malted ale like Robin Hood drank.
I'm willing to bet a lot of other people will too.
Easton Peterson
Prolly didn't have a nice cool cellar to keep it in.

The cans are not immortal. I had some age out and leak. They were only about three years old.
Hudson Morales
damn phil how much beer do you churn out?
Alexander Martinez
Is that 2011?

>fancy check valve
I have been using a glass water jug. My check valve is literally a rubber ball that I just set on top of the opening.
William Thompson
Yep, has my secret sauce along with a few additives in it. It's for the CA meetup fags who were butthurt that I didn't show up with the femtobrew I talked about (not for you, retards!). Got about 900mg of valium, 360mg of tizanidine, 70g caffeine, 30g opium extract, and 4 grams of leftover MDPV from the days before it was banned. They're fucked.
Airlocks are like 2 dollars you cheap faggot. Enjoy your botulism brew.

>calories
Buy a similar amount of clean water drums.
Buy a corresponding amount of sugar bags.
You now possess the similar amount of water and nutrition supplies for a fraction of the price, with next to no chances of giving you ulcers.
>Why should I not have a couple drums of mountain dew ala Dale?
Because you're a retard that barely survives a shopping trip, much less a shtf scenario.

Not so far. Everything has been squeaky clean. The rubber ball kicks ass.
