That sucks, I've been there. I recommend dry, cheap, bulk rice and beans. They are the best in terms of calories per dollar that you can store for a long time. Powdered peanut butter is good too. We used to cook two cups of rice and one cup of beans together in a rice cooker with three cups of water and then season it with whatever cheap dollar store spices we had. Very filling meal. The peanut butter is dessert.

That's really good advice actually, thanks. And under the bed like the other guy said isn't impossible either.

I would suggest storing some extra water too—It’s likely more important than food—and the good thing is it’s often cheap!
