Antibiotics.

We all would die so quickly and horribly without them.

Iodized salt. I live in iowa, we have planty of water (i can figure out how to filter it), and a great climate for growing food. However our soilis naturaly low iodine and there is no salt around so those are critical nutriants I don't think I could get here.

second would be iron - we don't have any and It is usefur for a lot.

Army MREs, the modern ones.

Assuming I'm not teleported elsewhere, the place I live has plenty of drinkable fresh water and other supplies, so the only real concern is having consistent high-quality food available, and MREs are engineered to support people in the wild for several months, if not years. In case of a major war breaking out, so it would contain everything I would need to stay alive, or to trade to other people.

Easy answers first. Potable water! You need it every day, helps with sanitation, growing food, etc.

If you wanted more like discrete consumable objects, keflex.

Edit: Or salt!

Drinkable water.

Goats. Food, friends and defense.

Electricity would be tempting. If you have access to water, you can boil it to make it safe. Run a refrigerator to store food. A convenient source of heat for cooking. Stay warm in the winter, stay cool in the summer. Lights for when it's dark. Use power tools to build things. Listen to music, watch movies, play those old Nintendo games.

Even after some time when your electronics break down and scavenging working ones gets tough, it's not difficult to build things like simple resistive heaters. Making crude incandescent light bulbs wouldn't be impossible either.

unlimited other earths to live in

My meds. I don't think I'll be able to do shit without them.

nobody has said rice or potatoes or anything like that. you're all completely fucked

also cum

Gin, I don't plan on surviving in an apocalypse

Pregnant women. Because they're hot and their milk supply is easy to induce.

Beans. Not only about the most important food source, legumes are also natural nitrogen fixers for soil health.

Heroin. Either build an army of addicts who're completely loyal to me or I can just off myself depending on how things are going.

Condoms, in case we need to repopulate the earth

Nanobots!

Paracord. You can weave it into just about anything. Can probably also weave a water filter.

weed

AA-batteries

You guys were smart to say water, first thing I thought of when I read the question though was peanut butter.
