Hi Granny, I bought from Waltonfeed prior to the Y2k threat. I was very pleased with their price and service. I have a closet dedicated to a 6 month supply of food that is still non perishable for another 6-8 years because of the freeze dried packing. It offers great piece of mind to know in an emergency my family is not dependent on grocery stores, and that as the man of my house I have provision covered. We also have a water purifier and a 1000 gallon goldfish pond in the back yard. I like the sound of the waterfall anyway.
Am i a survival nut? Maybe, But my family wont starve. And we wouldnt get fat while our neighbors starve but we would share with those we could trust. People should at least store some drinking water and stock up on canned goods, its not like it wont be used anyway.
Boy Scout Motto: Be Prepared. Tom Hanks in the Castaway movie really sends home the wisdom of having things you dont need versus not having things you do need if The S ever Hits the fan.
