BCP Measures | Disaster Prevention Specialists' Choice! 4 Recommended Emergency Foods! Rice Edition
BCP measures | September 1st is Disaster Prevention Day.
This year marks the 98th anniversary of the Great Kanto Earthquake.
We often hear people say that they prepared emergency food in preparation for a disaster, but haven't purchased any more since the expiration date. In this article, three disaster prevention experts from Oka Foods taste-tested emergency food that can be stored for five years, and we'd like to introduce some carefully selected recommended emergency food.
BCP Measures | Emergency Foods Recommended by Oka Foods Disaster Prevention Specialists

This time, we sampled nine types of rice dishes.
Alpha rice needs to be soaked in water, 15 minutes in boiling water or about an hour in cold water (15°C). Curry and risotto can be eaten either in a water bath or as is.
Before that, you need drinking water and a portable stove. Many people who have been affected by disasters in the past have said that they wanted to eat something warm while evacuating.
Warm food is comforting in an emergency, so don't forget to include a portable stove and gas cylinder in your disaster preparedness kit.


Be careful not to get burned! A funnel and kettle are useful.

There is a spoon inside the bag. Don't forget to remove the oxygen absorber!!
