    No not really, the basements in apartment buildings are heated to something more like 17°C (going from what it feels like).
    You’re just meant to put shelf-stable food in there, like pasta or canned stuff. It’s just a big pantry, not a fridge.

    And while yeah things will get more expensive, i’m more talking about having food and water in emergencies, which most people don’t have. You’re not really going to store enough food in there to make much difference for something as long-term as farmers running out of fertilizer, but e.g. if power goes out for a week then a stocked pantry is the difference between it being a traumatic event and it just being a very unpleasant week.
