I keep a few of the pourable small containers. They’re at least cheap. Yep, it’s a must-have.

Have or at least had back-up pet food. I need to check the supply.

Perhaps you can extend their shelf life with refrigeration.

I am still working through a few thousand rounds of ammo hoarded in the early Obama years.

Now if there is a zombie apocalypse, I am just going to lay down in the street.

Two years ago I had to clean out my mothers house. She kept everything from back before the Cuban missile crisis.

I was tossing shit out of the second floor windows into the dumpster we rented. 30 yard dumpster. I had to have it emptied twice.

Please, for the sake of your adult child’s back....ont keep your kids crap. Toss it.

Salt is literally a rock. Even caked up, just take a hammer to it.

We did the same at the grandparents. No, we don’t have anywhere near that much junk. Though, this winter, the guest room is going to go back to being the guest room and not the junk room.

Cajun Navy, Redneck Army—seriously awesome skills! Kudos to them and to first and all responders! Prayers up for their safety.

BAD advice. Think collectibles. My mom gave away my old comic collection to some of my younger cousins. First editions of Fantastic Four, SpiderMan, Iron Man, Hulk, and more Marvel comix. Probably worth over a million bux to collectors.

Guess you have never been hungry enough or live abroad. I've had dog and horse. Horse is excellent meat.

You can get it at the "horse meat" store in italy : Carne equina

Never had cat. But I would if I had to. So would you.

Yup, and the administration is getting prepared by using the presidential alert system for when he has to declare martial law when arrests are made. That’s what we are all waiting for and elected him for, right?

Personally I think the deep state has a master plan to take down the power grid or something else. They are evil and

these people are sick!

We were long term visiting Panama City Beach in our 5th wheel. Packed up and gassed up on Sunday. Left Monday as gas lines started to form heading toward Alabama.
60 gallons of water in the RV tank & 6 cases in the truck bed. We always have 4 months food for 2 in the 5’r RV. And a Berkey water filter. Plus several sport utility rifles & everything needed for them. And spare gas for the generator. & Plenty of dog food too.
We camped out between the Semis at a truck stop further west.We will return to Panama City Beach when things are back to relative normal there.
We foolishly remained in the Miami area during hurricane Andrew. Never again.

Yeah, anything that was worth anything got sold.

99.99% of the stuff you have is the same crap as anyone else. I spent my life being told the stuff my parents had were antique or unique. Old does not equate to valuable.

YOU may have had all of the great first edition stuff. If you did, great. I sympathize with your loss.

But the original poster was talking about holding onto rags for God’s sake.

Who are you to tell someone what is permissible for them to eat?
