2 gallons of water, a few granola bars, a few cans of potted meat, crackers, and some hard candy. I bring a cooler of stuff as well when on longer trips, especially with the family.

I just keep some cereal bars, coffee, sugar, water, and some single serve kool-aid packets that go with the water bottles in case I need a sugar boost.

After several years being stationed in Minot. I carry a survival kit in every car. Military chow kits, folding stoves, #10 cans, candles, blankets-wool, sleeping bag or two.

Jerky, dried fruits and soups. Usually several packets of oatmeal. Crackers and canned meats.

About a case of water scattered around the car in different places. Tools kits, tarp, shovel. Jumper cables, booster, lights, cold lights, tow straps.

OK I know I'm paranoid.

I keep a small 3 day emergency kit in the car with thermal blankets, candles, flashlights, etc. Heavy winters here and some ppl have been known to be stuck in snow banks on the highways for a couple of days or more. for food I have some homemade MRE's that I put in vaccuum sealed bags. Nuts, dried fruit, jerky, and high calorie emergency food bars.
