(some meals require cooking):
No special backpacking food is required. It just needs to be lightweight, which generally means dry. All of these ingredients can be obtained at grocery stores. Most have a long shelf life and can be stored at home until needed.
If an emergency occurred, it would be best to eat your perishable foods first. On a backpacking trip, for the first day or so, you can take foods like fruits, vegetables and meats. The primary consideration is the weight.
