how much do you know about home storage?

I'm teaching a lesson in church this Sunday. I will be teaching about self-reliance and The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints' NEW (2007) program for home storage. I developed the following quiz as a teaching tool for the lesson.

[I'd love to read your answers/guesses in the comments section! Don't peek at the answers by going to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints' Provident Living website. See how much you can answer from memory! I'll post the answers on Friday.]
