Best Foods to Stockpile for a Power Outage?

Curious what foods folks rely on for power outages that don’t require cooking or refrigeration. I’ve got canned meats, peanut butter, and instant oats, but looking for more variety. Any favorites that have a long shelf life and actually taste decent cold?
 
Crackers and shelf-stable cheese spreads actually hit the spot for me, and that Laughing Cow stuff holds up pretty well without fridge. I stash dried fruit and nuts, too—gives you a decent energy boost and tastes way better than eating cold beans all the time. Granola bars (the kind that don’t melt) are handy for snacks. Anybody tried those boxed nondairy milks? Wondering if they’re any good straight from the box.
