Another great resource I have found is dollar stores.. great places to stock up on soaps, bleach, cleaners, extra food and such.. people never think about them but they are good.<<<
We have 2 of the dollar stores and I try to not buy food from them.
My sister came last month and almost all the dollar store foods were over the hill and not eatable.
She threw out 3 jars of mayonaise that were not that old, one only a month or so and also salad dressings, you could smell that they were rancid.
But I do like their cola at 50 cents for a 2 liter bottle.
Yes, do visit the Mormon cannery, you will benefit from it.
I have not been to one, but my Mormon friends over the years kept me up to date and ordered for me.
Many people will be buying foods and that is good, now to get them to cook them and use them.
I have a total Walton Feed.com fan, I found them by accident.
Ten years ago, Excite.com had a program called Voyeur, it displayed the last requested ‘searches’ on their search engine.
LOL, I learned that fools think they can hide the fact that they are looking for porn with lady like words and more phrases than even I knew existed for porn.
But it also had all the ‘other’ searches and I was new to the internet and learning how to get around.
Someone searched for ‘bulk storage food’ , and I clicked to see what it was they were searching for.
Fell in love with Walton’s how to pages and links.
Then set out to check them out and found that they are linked in most Mormon sites and LOL, also found good Mormon cooking group and placed an order with Walton’s.
I have never been sorry and they will fix it if there is a mistake.
Once, I ordered a bag of sliced dehydrated potatoes, they were out and as a substitution, they shipped me the potatoes in 25 cans, many times the cost of what I had ordered and a real blessing, as some are still here, safely sealed, waiting their turn.
I mainly order the bags of things at Walton, as I am not able to buy the super storage foods, except the ones that I used daily.
Stay safe and keep alert.
I just bought another dehydrator - for that very reason granny.
When those ten pound bags of potatoes go on sale, I buy one, slice the potatoes (unpeeled) in the Cuisinart rinse them off, soak them in fresh water with lemon juice (to prevent browning) and dehydrate them.
They are then ready for cooking. Re-hydrate them in a bit of boiling water for ten minutes, or bake them in a scallop potato dish.
Yummm. And they are available at any time - any year.
