“I bought too much progressive soup...“

lol!

A couple questions – how do you have jars of tuna and salmon? I’m assuming you can them, but how did you get the meat? I have cans of the stuff but I’m thinking I might be missing something here....

And how come you don’t like mylar? Just curious. I like it, as long as I have something structural to store it in.

Oh yes, i love my food saver! When i first started prepping, i didn’t have one so went the oven route.

i just got my first food saver about a month ago and have been vacuum sealing everything i can find. it’s addictive!

true, part of prepping is bartering and creating symbiotic relationships ;)

Regarding jars of canned salmon....

ahhhh

My parents drove their RV to Alaska
so my dad could fish for salmon.

They had a freezer installed in the RV and my mom would can some of the salmon too.

Flew up for a week once and then another time
me and hubby drove up with them. Great times.

I think any FR thread with the word Prepping in it will draw people!

I bought one and have hardly touched it since.

Mr mm does it all.

He LOVES the thing.

I got the attachments that allow you to suck the air out of canning jars.

Glad you’re starting this again. I used to read granny’s threads pretty regularly. I just hope this doesn’t turn into another valiant but futile attempt to download every recipe off the Internet, though.
