And, recognizing you as an apocalyptic type, arrange to have you shot as you exit the store.
Sounds like MREs (or earlier variant of military rations) for the civilian population. Mmmmm...
Eating for $800 a year sounds like a bargain. lol.
I bet the Mormons have a better alternative.
What is the author’s point? Costco is bad for doing this? Not gonna click on it, because apparently his typewriter was set to keep repeating the first sentence. But if the excerpt is any indication, not much thought went into this.
I’m thinking that hunger and deprivation are inversely proportional to snark and bile.
Just don't wear your CC when you go to buy it - might be the last thing you ever do.
I’ll just go raid Michelle ma belle’s garden...
When, not if, when the SHTF, that food won’t be so ‘disgusting’.
Can someone here post a good site for practical long term food storage, if you don’t have a house the size of a storage facility and acres of land?
If they have the worldwide inflation I think is going to come, storing some assets in food I would think would be a good idea.
Twelve cans of “Hard White Winter Wheat (44 servings per can)”, one can of
Freeze-Dried Mushroom Pieces (48 servings per can)”, and dozens of cans of “TVP”—textured vegetable protein, which Shelf Reliance says “is consistent with real meat.” Not included in the deal is a can of freeze dried cyanide for when you grow weary of mixing TVP bacon with elbow macaroni every week.
I’m now reflecting on a year spent holed up in an abandoned mine, sleeping with a pistol under my pillow so the zombies don’t get me, or a year spent staring at “2 Cans of Taco TVP (42 servings per can),
Isn’t “textured vegetable protein”, SOY? gag barf. Can’t stand soy.
It is amazing how disgusting food becomes appetizing when you are starving.
Just buy $800 worth of soup, can opener, and lots of matches.
I’ve bought food from Shelf Reliance.
Powdered cheese product, dehydrated potatoes and dehydrated strawberries. mmmm,mmmm,mmmm.
I hate to open the other ones since they’d lose shelf life but I did open the potatoes and try them. Now I have about a 5 lb can of potatoes I need to use.
They might keep you alive, but they’re pretty nasty.
Ask some of the folks down New Orleans way if a stash like this might have come in handy a few years back.
You can spot a leftist by their reaction to preparations such as longterm food storage for emergencies. Immediately opposed, try to paint it as looneytunes, but then when confronted with the practicality of it, the whole thing boils down to “it’s not fair, everybody can’t do it, it’s hoarding.”
So, everybody has to leave themselves wide open to a looming threat, just because everybody can’t be protected from it, out of “fairness.” Sounds like our national defense policy, come to think of it.
Don’t let these fools know, is all I’ve got to say. You’ll be demonized as a hoarder at best, if it ever comes down to actually needing it.
Yesterday Beck was saying we should all go out and buy a years supply of food and water.
Personally, I think a few months supply of food you like to eat and is durable makes sense. Disaster and chaos; major hurricane, earthquake, volcano, civil unrest, etc. is only likely to last a few days, or a week, or maybe a few months of chaos. 1 year of broken down supply lines is nuclear war, civil war, nuclear terrorist attacks (plural) sort of stuff.
