Obviously you'll need electricity via generator or solar, but it is fast so can be done without killing your energy supply. Similarly, the parboiled "minute" rice (white, not brown) uses half the water of regular rice, and doesn't waste it by boiling it away (you end up consuming almost all the water used to cook it)... Ironically, that means you cook the rice on the stove and the pasta in the rice cooker after an earthquake.

I have about 3 months of just beans and rice stored in mylar. I've got another 2-3 months of mountain house. About 20lbs of spices (salt, pepper, cinnamon, etc) in jars vacuum sealed with oxygen absorbers just in case.
I only have about 100 gallons of water, but enough filters that I could raid the neighborhood for gray water (those water heaters) and filter it. Most people will have left water standing in there if it ever gets that bad, because they don't know about it. Additionally, I'm not far from the ocean. It's not hard to make a salt water steam purifier for nearly unlimited clean water.
