Rice to Beans - again

[Mackay]

I just can't seem to get my head around this one.
Help me out if you can.

If all you had to eat was rice and beans how many pounds of each do you think you should have for one year? ,,, say for 2 people

for 2 people = 73 pounds of long grain white rice and 56 pounds of dried northern beans. Of course those are based on the 45g and 35g per serving on the packages and would probably double the amount for any thing over the size of a midget dwarf.

Better triple it then... guys are 6' 1" and up here.
Thanks. That gives me a baseline.

The 36.5 pounds of rice and 28 pounds of beans per person per year is only base on one serving per day.

Bring it over. I have enough space for a few more 5 gallon containers.
