Lds food storage

Foregoing food for a day each month stood out among other religious practices in members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (LDS or Mormons), who have lower rates of heart disease than other Americans, researchers reported at the American Heart Association's Scientific Sessions 2007.
According to the LDS, my family of 1 needs to store 300lbs of grain, 25lbs of fats, 60lbs of legumes, 60lbs of sugars, 75lbs of dairy, and oddly, only 11 gallons of water. I guess Mormons don't get thirsty, and no wonder they're buying up all that land, they're gonna need it to store all this food.
