For me, if you eat it, and it'll last a while, buy it and store it.
If it takes a while to process into edible form, but lasts years, then it's a good purchase....providing you would eat it.
Really, it doesn't need to be more complex than that.
Tins, dried, freeze dried, MREs, jars, pickled, or anything like that is a fair plan.
One thing worth checking out, self supplying. Grow your own, and learning to forrage. Also, planting trees in areas that you frequent. I know a guy that has planted over 30 apple trees in and around his location.

most sites choose what tins go into the discounted mnthly groupings, this site lets you choose. i have yet to buy from them (awaiting payday) but it looks good.
unfortunatly we don't get it nearly as good as the US where they are cheeper and have a greater variety.
the spaceman ice cream is amazing you can get it cheap off ebay or amazon and i have eaten it a few years out of date
the stuff i have in the spare room i got from the US but i had to pay a crazy amount for customs

ive used these for a year or so as a boil in a bag and they work reasonaly well, takes about 7-10 mins with meths.
the content seems to have changed recently more liquid and less chunks
