An emergency that would render them without access to any source of food. Call it a war, a terrorist act, a hail, a severe storm, a typhoon, a whirlwind or any other expression of the power of nature and the human... idiosyncrasy (...to put it mildly). Some of them prefer to raid the super markets and get their hands on any form of tin can they can lay their hands on, store it in the basement and leave it there to be used when and if it ever became necessary. While this might be an easy and expedient solution, it's neither the healthiest, nor the tastiest, nor the best thing for your finances. Especially if you face medical conditions that would make the consumption of salt a dangerous proposition. However, an increasing number of people have decided to be prepared on one hand, but not to take the risk of eating food of bad quality and cooked in a most displeasing way on the other.
