Terror threats appear to be on the rise as FEMA has rushed a $1 Billion order of dehydrated food in the event of attacks on domestic targets in the US.
This is also coming on the heels of one of the largest terror drills performed by the US Navy on American soil, as Operation Solid Curtain is taking place this week.
In an article Tuesday from the Beaufort Observer, many of the largest suppliers of dehydrated foods in the country are dropping their distributors and customers to dedicate their resources to supplying a billion dollar FEMA request and purchase.

knowing obozo these MRE’s will probably be sent to the Libyans,Tunisians and Egyptians.
This is how they plan to keep the long-legged mack daddy Obama in the White House indefintely .
I saw the movie Deep Impact...
What does FEMA know?
We already have the perfect place for FEMA to store their stash - in all the unused mobile homes and trailers they bought for Katrina victims in NOLA. Many are not sitting in the land fill so they could easily access them.
No matter what Obama needs to go now.
If anything, this government has probably ordered to food for themselves.
Yep, I for the first time dehydrated a portion of our large Persimmon crop this year. It is nice to have them where I can put them on oatmeal or make the Korean Persimmon/Ginger/Tea from them. I also froze a lot of the ripe Persimmon pulp.
Stocking up on food isn’t crazy.
Solar generators on the other hand.......
Whether there is any truth to this story or not, it does make one think that something is in the works.
You can never be too prepared.
I have dehydrated`food but this is getting ridiculous.
I’ve got a 30 gallon plastic tote full of dried tomatoes and beans in the garage. I’ll bring them in and stick them in the freezer and use them over the summer as I dry more.
I’m going to double them next winter. Food makes fine currency in a pinch.
Ping to what we were discussing about J.R. Moore.
Forgot to add, gotta love this company.
From their website, just try to find the specs or the prices of their products anywhere. Cannot believe Beck puts his name behind this.

INDEED.
THX. THX.
Holy Cow! What’s going on?
Or is someone just making a fast buck off the taxpayers...again.
Thanks for the links.
I just took inventory in my basement: 1/2 gallon red wine; 1/2 gallon white wine. 6 cans of beer. 1 box of Saltines... 24 bottles of water. Doritos, 4 jars Prego sauce; 3 boxes linguine; 6 cans Chunky soup. 12 rolls of toilet paper.
I think I’m in trouible.
I don’t dehydrate, but I do can my food. What’s not in jars, I keep in pickle buckets I get free from a local restaurant (in mylar/with O2 absorbers). I grow everything from heirlooms and save the seeds from year to year.
This has been a huge learning curve for me, but I wanted to learn how to do this firsthand now, while I can still look up stuff online.
Don’t panic, simply plant a garden. Then you can do what you want with the produce from it.
I have onion sets in the ground and am about to plant potatoes.
About 3 weeks ago I planted 29 new fruit trees in the family orchard, 4 blueberry bushes, blackberry bushes, strawberries and even a couple of PawPaws.
We have cattle and a lot of wild game here.
There is a weekly gardening thread here on FR. The ping list is maintained by Red_Devil 232
Remember, a country boy can survive.
Our yard has a lot of roots and not a lot of sun, so a garden is not really an option for us.
