1 00:00:04,680 --> 00:00:06,680 Oh wow, that doesn't smell good. 2 00:00:07,680 --> 00:00:09,120 Could it be this one? 3 00:00:11,120 --> 00:00:12,640 Yeah, that was it. 4 00:00:13,920 --> 00:00:16,760 Seven Days: Practise your preparedness. 5 00:00:16,840 --> 00:00:18,120 Food. 6 00:00:19,520 --> 00:00:23,000 Hi! My name is Simon. In this video, I’m your preparedness buddy. 7 00:00:23,080 --> 00:00:26,680 We'll talk about what you should consider before you end up in a situation like this. 8 00:00:26,760 --> 00:00:31,160 The power has been out for a while, and the food in the fridge has gone bad. 9 00:00:31,240 --> 00:00:35,240 What should you do if that happens, and how can you prepare to avoid hunger? 10 00:00:35,320 --> 00:00:38,880 Start by eating the fresh food that is still good. 11 00:00:38,960 --> 00:00:42,760 Milk often goes bad quickly, while cheese and similar foods last longer. 12 00:00:44,080 --> 00:00:46,280 A good rule of thumb is to smell it. 13 00:00:46,360 --> 00:00:48,600 If it smells fine, it's usually fine. 14 00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:50,840 That works. 15 00:00:53,400 --> 00:00:55,200 This is usually sitting on the kitchen counter. 16 00:00:55,280 --> 00:00:58,960 It contains fresh foods that keep well without refrigeration. 17 00:00:59,040 --> 00:01:02,280 Some onions, carrots and potatoes. 18 00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:05,480 Potatoes are very versatile and can be used for many things. 19 00:01:05,560 --> 00:01:10,240 Potatoes have probably helped many people get through crises over the years. 20 00:01:12,560 --> 00:01:15,040 You should keep a variety of foods in your pantry. 21 00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:18,160 Grains, pasta and rice. 22 00:01:18,240 --> 00:01:20,120 We have high-fat foods. 23 00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:22,720 Seeds, pesto and cooking oil. 24 00:01:22,800 --> 00:01:28,080 You should also have protein, such as tinned tuna, beans and eggs. 25 00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:31,280 Then there are quick sources of energy, such as fruit custard, 26 00:01:31,360 --> 00:01:34,440 dried fruit and raisins, jam or chocolate. 27 00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:38,680 Do you have children? Then it's good to have baby cereal drink, infant formula 28 00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:41,520 or baby food to keep you going for a while. 29 00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:45,160 A useful tip is that a full freezer, if you avoid opening the door, 30 00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:49,040 can stay cold for up to 48 hours before the food starts to thaw. 31 00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:51,480 Someone's knocking at the door. - Come in! 32 00:01:53,080 --> 00:01:55,200 -Hi, Samuel. -What are you doing? 33 00:01:55,280 --> 00:02:00,240 I'm talking about home preparedness, food and what to keep in mind. 34 00:02:00,320 --> 00:02:04,920 Right. Do you want to take a break and come fishing with me for a while? 35 00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:07,200 Yeah, that actually works quite well. 36 00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:12,720 We can bring some fresh food from the fridge and some of this, and cook outside. 37 00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:15,600 That sounds great. Maybe we'll catch some fish too. 38 00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:19,880 What do you think? What's the plan for today? 39 00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:22,480 Yeah, it looks good. 40 00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:38,000 It's great to be out in nature, and it's important to remember that. 41 00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:42,840 Even in a crisis or war, you should still do things you enjoy. 42 00:02:42,920 --> 00:02:46,960 Get outside and enjoy nature. Recharge your batteries, so to speak. 43 00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:52,000 Just getting outside like this can make a big difference to how you feel. 44 00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:04,080 -Look, Simon! I caught a fish. -What? You caught a fish? 45 00:03:04,160 --> 00:03:05,600 -An Arctic char. -Look at that! 46 00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:09,560 -Now we have protein too. -I'm just preparing some tacos here, 47 00:03:09,640 --> 00:03:12,440 -so we're having fish tacos. -Perfect! 48 00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:22,200 -This is good. It's teamwork. -Just like always when we're outdoors. 49 00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:25,520 -Good teamwork. -Exactly. 50 00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:32,960 That'll keep us going for the rest of the day. 51 00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:36,200 What's the verdict? 52 00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:42,360 If it's quiet, it means it's good. That's what my mum always says. 53 00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:49,480 To sum up: if the power goes out and your fridge and freezer stop working, 54 00:03:49,560 --> 00:03:53,720 eat the fresh food first so it doesn't spoil and go to waste. 55 00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:59,560 Keep basic foods at home that keep for a long time, such as potatoes, onions and eggs. 56 00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:05,040 Pasta is also very useful to have, as are rice, grains and similar foods. 57 00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:09,040 Keep tinned high-protein foods, such as beans and fish. 58 00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:15,320 Also keep high-fat foods, such as nuts, pesto, cooking oil and butter. 59 00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:20,640 Do you have children? Keep a supply baby food and similar foods 60 00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:22,720 so you have enough to get by. 61 00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:26,720 Swedish Civil Defence and Resilience Agency.
