Food Storage Customers Explain the Need for Emergency Food Storage

Salt Lake City, Utah – Sales of food storage supplies have never been higher at Blue Chip Group, Inc. and customers at the outlet store were happy to explain why they are stocking up.

The Red Cross, FEMA and other federal and state agencies have been encouraging individuals and families to prepare for disasters, terrorist attacks, and other emergencies, and it appears that many are taking that advice seriously. Crowds of people were seen throughout the day at the outlet store at Blue Chip Group, Inc., 432 West 3440 South in Salt Lake. Business is so brisk that the company will soon begin construction to expand the current warehouse.

"Get started today. Buy what you are going to eat in your normal diet," advised Eleonore McLain of Eagle Mountain. She said she just discovered the outlet store and the Morning Moos milk alternative that has made the company famous for over 30 years.

She said she is a Mormon and has been following the advice of church leaders to store a year´s supply of food and other necessities. She said storing food for emergencies is good advice for people of all faiths.

Diane Newren said she learned about the outlet store at Blue Chip Group from a news story on the Internet, and was returning after making her first purchases a week earlier. She drove from her home in Bountiful to load up on supplies for her storage room, and to get more of the Morning Moos.

"We love the Morning Moos. It is much better than store milk or other powdered milk," said Newren. She said she likes the low prices she gets when she buys in bulk, and the convenience of having the food she needs stored in her home without having to run to the store to get something.

Blue Chip Group offers a web site with additional information, a price list, online ordering, shipping to anywhere in the United States, and a free newsletter with lots of tips and helpful information at www.FoodStorageIdeas.com

The company began with the development of Morning Moos over 30 years ago by Blue Chip Group founder Phil Augason. The distinctive number 10 cans with a black and white cow on the label are on prominent display inside many grocery stores throughout Utah.
