Food liquor and ammo all spoil.

Although I have eaten thirty year old Civil Defense bisquits, and drank liquor older than that, and I know that ammo can last years — but not forever. Chemistry in those modern explosive formulations maybe be slow, but it goes on.

For the most part no one wants to eat food older than a few months — doesn’t taste very good. And no one wants ammo from WWI, except to dispose of it.

But a gold coin dug up from 3 thousand years ago is still almost as good as the day it was minted.

i recently bought a great deal of WW1 ammo (not for ammo purposes). I surprised at how good of condition it was in. Corrosive primers but it shot just fine.

Go without grub for five days or so, and you’d eat a bug.

And LIKE it!!
