What I find interesting is the almost untouched section of packaged snacks down 
the aisle.  If people were *really* needing to stock up on emergency food, 
Twinkies (which, I agree, are not normally a dietary recommendation) would be 
pretty good.  They have a very high energy content, they contain tons of 
preservatives, and so would keep without any refridgeration, and they are even 
individually packaged, which might be important if there is any flooding.

You'd find me over in the sections dealing with crackers, peanut butter, nuts, and 
so forth.  (Also, I assume bottled water is sold out, but there is probably soda 
water, or even other forms of carbonated water, even if flavoured.)
