Question for preppers: FD Powder to fresh produce ratio?

Post by gman68w »

Does anyone know how many whole bananas are in a 5 cup bag of freeze-dried banana powder? Fresh bananas from Food Lion are around $1 a pound, give or take 10c. A 5-cup bag of powder from NBT is just under $30, not counting S+H. Am I saving any money by getting the bag of FD powder? Or am I better off getting five pounds of the fresh stuff, mushing and jarring it, and keeping it in the fridge until I need it (not necessarily for SHTF, I just like bananas in my Carnation in the morning, and putting the two in a blender has helped me drop 25lbs in three months)?
Jesus sez 'Pack Heat' Luke 22:36: "Then said he unto them, But now,
he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise his scrip: and he that
hath no sword, let him sell his garment, and buy one."
