    About a fortnight's food. Water isn't a problem, we have a rain tank.

  • My parents have a couple weeks food/water at our house. We've always maintained an earthquake-preparedness kit.

  • We have a private well, so no issues there. If the power goes out, we have a generator, and 15 gallons of gasoline in reserve. Food is another issue. Maybe a week, then it's time to get the turkey call out, and I'm not that good of a shot.

  • About two weeks usually.   Then it's time to dwindle down the critter population and start fishing.

  • I'm British so I have an endless supply of beans, we could probably live for months on those.  We only drink bottled water plus all the fruit juice, cans of soda and beer we could probably make it for a month.
