I want people to store food not only for their sake, but for mine as well. I don’t want to decide which of my kids have to go hungry when you and your unprepared kin come knocking on my door. Contrary to progressive-collectivist thinking, every individual who takes care of themselves and their families benefits society by not becoming a burden. So take responsibility now and start today. Don’t expect the Feds to come by to hand you your ration of government-rationed cheese. You could be in for a long wait. Wait too long, and you may end up with a green-stained mouth from eating grass, like the poor Irish during the potato famine in the mid 1800’s. Or seriously reevaluate your aversion to cannibalism. Compared to those desperate methods, dumpster diving comes off as luxury cuisine.

Just buy a lot of MREs. Considering they have between 2500-3000 per MRE, all you need is one a day (unless your heavily exerting yourself).

Do you prefer crispy or grilled lol
Thanks!
Just asking.
I have a pretty good amount already set aside but here is my question,
If we lose power I lose a ton of frozen meat. Does anyone have a plan for this contingency or suggestions?
BTTT - bookmark
just ordered it, thanks for the recommendation!
uhh! just asking what?
Fuel will also become an issue....There is a solar generator out that sell for less than 1,000. It suggests that enough power for freezers etc would be produced in one day.
SInce gas pumps don’t work during hurricanes etc...It seems that more people should look into the solar portable unit. Panel is on rollers, all the rest is self contained.
New small portable solar generators are now available for hurricanes etc.
If you have a basement or a root cellar, that shouldn’t be a problem
Finally! The correct answer to the question.
My last answer was "an extra 20-lb sack of rice doesn't cost much nor take much space", but I like yours better.

Good information there to share, Kartographer. Alaskans tend to do those things as a way of life, but there’s some things I ought to be doing that I haven’t done either.
I was taught, “don’t come crying to me” when I haven’t done what I should. Folks would be wise to take precautions for any unforseen emergency.
Thanks for pinging me.
