Dear James,
I believe you know this. A while ago I was listening on the web someone talking about prepping and cooking with some cooking item to be able to cook without odors. I forgot what it was and of course I am still looking for it. I am not sure, but I think it was a container inside a container, so there is no fume and no odors, and the idea is to cook without attracting attention. It can even be used to cook without electricity, so they say. If you can find this you would help the whole prepper community. People near you can look for it for you. Poor James. I will keep you busy with that Survival Blog of yours.
Michelle.
@Michelle, what you probably heard about is called a thermal cooker. There are a variety of commercial units like this one from Nissan or this one from Sarasota Jacks. There are also a number of articles on SurvivalBlog that show you how to make them like these:
You can also rehydrate freeze dried or dehydrated foods in a Mason jar and as long as the lid is screwed on while it’s rehydrating, there will be no odor. Just eat fast when you open it up to consume it.
Cold food also produces much less odor than hot foods so for the fist couple of weeks (or months depending on the severity of the situation) you may want to focus on foods that can be eaten cold.
Hope this helps.
