Peanut butter, nuts, trail mix, power bars, canned meat and canned vegetables. The key thing is to stockpile items that pack the most calories and nutrition. Plenty of water, but a portable water filtration device may prove to be very useful. Have a light source and plenty of batteries.

See full report here. In its report, ABC noted that many people often talk about the Northridge earthquake of 1994, which was a 6.7-magnitude earthquake.
