Yeah, a case or two of pints of bourbon always gets listed as good barter goods to have around.
It’s not like I’m drinking it, but it’s there for barter if the worst happens.
Plus it taste wonderful
Some folks will still scoop it up, but the prices are really out of control.
This is actually something to really worry about.
I may still have a bag of rice in the cabinet left over from the Y2k panic.
Six months is for brown rice.
While whole wheat or brown rice or other minimally processed ingredients may be slightly more nutritious they have a shorter shelf life and your body will gain less energy from them.
A good thing now when we are surrounded by delicious calorie available food in abundance and must restrain ourselves.
In a survival situation where you are having to do physical labor, not so much.
I’m going to buy a cheap pork butt and cook it in spaghetti sauce...instead of meatballs.
Do you order it or buy it at the grocery?
Rice is good for storing items that need protection from moisture...in WW2 that’s how they stored MANY things
In the Phillipines. ..
Peanut Butter and Refried Beans opened with a resealable opener will replenish you with protein and b vitamins.
I have B&M brown bread as well. I can save it for just me because my family do not like the molasses flavor.
Karo corn syrup is a great sweetener, and very cheap. It’s regular corn syrup, not the hydrogenated kind.
Don’t forget a good mega multivitamin with minerals…..
When you diet suffers they will help maintain some balance…..
Also, your spices and salts, they will dramatically change a very bland diet into a culinary escape….
Bookmark. Good thread.
Spam. Period.
I haven’t had B&M Brown Bread since I was a kid. I’m going to have to see if I can find it at the store.
Does the simethicone make the beans more picante?
😂

A multivitamin might cause you to have excess vitamin A.
The government forces skim milk sellers to add vitamin A. So many foods are sold with added vitamin A that eating them can cause you to have excess vitamin A.
An investigation in Sweden found that people with more vitamin A have more bone problems.
For milk I keep stocked up on evaporated milk and use it for cooking when fresh milk is called for to keep it rotated, including making vanilla custard ice cream. It keeps for and couple of years and would be so very beneficial.
For the flour, don’t forget to stock up on active dry yeast and vegetable shortening.
I try to keep stocked for a year of all non perishables. Canned chili and protein bars are good to keep.
I hate Spam and Goya’s similar version but I do keep it in stock. It’s good for five years usually and I’ve found a few recipes to enjoy it in, just to keep it rotated.
Paper goods and cleaning supplies I go for 2 years stock, some the plandemic. They’re not done messing with us.
One the initial expense is doled out you can just replace as used and it keeps it rotated at no additional cost.
Uhhhh…. No..
