FIFO rotational supply is safe.......:o)
May go snag a few more cases in next few days. Thanks for the tip !
Grocery Outlet had 16 oz jars of Jiff for a buck the other day, and I bought a few. Maybe I’ll buy a few more.
Beef and other agricultural exports to countries like China are increasing.
When everyone could afford to have their own jar of peanut butter. Those were the days...I have peanuts growing in the fields all around me presently, some are being harvested now.
Crops with high forced pricing are over planted and the market becomes saturated forcing US farmers to dump the excess on the global market. This leads to farm losses in other countries due to depressed market values and shortages in their food supply once cheap imported crops are used.Governments in these nations try to protect their nation from a recurrence by banning imports and initiating price subsidies which starts it all over in a different locale.
I'm just a novice in all things economic and have only in the past 10 yrs. started paying attention and reading up on it.I've read some books by Walter E. Williams,Thomas Sowell, Milton Friedman, and Friedrich Hayek and am just starting to realize what was left out of my public school and community college education. I welcome all criticism, correction and enlightenment on this subject as I find myself fascinated by it.
I shell spread the news. Thanks blam.
Normally keep a good stock of it, have added some, now sitting on 10kg in my pantry.
Interesting comment to leave on a survival/preparedness thread.
PB is calorically dense, high in fat, a decent source of protein, has the capacity for relatively long-term storage, and is inexpensive. It is a staple for your food stores, if you have them.
I saw someone at Sam’s Club last night buying two of those Jif two-packs.
