Video: Prepare for disaster ... with a cooking competition

Disaster Dining Challenge raises awareness of Emergency Preparedness Week
Last week was Emergency Preparedness Week in Canada, and the City of Greater Sudbury invited organizations to compete in the annual Disaster Dining Challenge. 
 
The goal: To help reinforce the importance of being prepared for an emergency.
 
The challenge: Participants had 30 minutes to assemble a three-course meal using only non-perishable food items that could be found in an emergency preparedness kit. 
 
To simulate cooking conditions in a disaster situation, no electricity or tap water was used. 
 
Watch the video to see what the teams came up with (and whether the judges could eat the creations).
