‘exactly the process of freeze drying involves’

‘When freeze drying, a cooked portion of food is flash frozen under a vacuum. At low pressure, all but 2-5% of the water in the food sublimes, moving quickly from a solid to gas form.’————

Yeah, SO?

‘Freeze dried foods are rather expensive - $1 to $2 per serving of a side dish like macaroni and cheese and $3 for a serving of ground beef. These are bulk prices - individually packed entrees cost $6 to $8 a piece.

One is easily looking at $10 to $15 dollars a day per person to sustain a diet of freeze dried food. Remember, this is food you might end up eating for hundreds of meals if a breakdown of society never comes.’——

Well that may be the price currently, but compared to the price of food since the ‘age of Obama’, I say it’s a great deal to buy food that lasts 25 years and doesn’t need refrigeration, at today’s price, because the raping that’s been done of our treasury and citizenry by Obama, tax cheat Geithner, Barney Frank, Maxine Waters, Chuck Schumer, Ben Bernanke and the black caucus will be felt for generations to come.

I love freeze dried foods. So easy,ready in minutes, tastier than dehydrated, in some instances, such as the banana’s, and has a long shelf life.

Best be buying now, before Obama ends food production all together or turns off the water in more places than California, or deems it necessary for prices to skyrocket or deems it that the citizenry are not allowed to eat meat. Congress is working on doing just that.

I once repaired a home made freeze dryer used for saving documents from flooding.
It was an office water bottle stuck inside a top freezer with the mouth
sticking out the side. The mouth was cut back allowing for a 8in opening and
a plain metal plate with a rubber seal around it stuck to it being held in place
by two latches.

Very simple to make. The vacuum pump is the expensive part though. Over all the
whole system would cost about $700 on the DYI cheap.

If you can get some good tasting freeze dried food, and eat some of it now why not? Just think of how much food an average person wastes in their lives, so looking at it this way, incorporating freeze dried food can reduce food wastage now, thus saving money (of course this depends on the person’s rate of food wastage, and I know that some people never waste food) At the very least, the freeze dried food can act as an inflation hedge. Same thing with vodka, red wine etc.
