If money wasn’t an issue, all my survival food would be freeze dried.

Storing and rotating canned foods mean that you have to eat canned foods, wealthy people should just buy it pre-done, and put it away out of sight.

Freeze dried is expensive. I began preparing in earnest 16 years ago after a major power outage and work experience began to alarm me.

I just spread it out like insurance. That was the beauty of freeze dried. Yearly I would do quarterly "insurance payments". I included shelving with the purchases and inventoried digital and hard copy. One regret is freeze dried takes up more space than dehydrated or canned per serving calorie.

Freeze dried is not what I would recommend for a beginning a food storage regiment. I made too many mistakes in the beginning.

I have moved on now to getting off grid. I am truly afraid we have run out of time for that.

A funny thing about freeze dried I bought before the Obola disaster. In inflation adjusted dollars, it was my best investment.
