Spent a lot of my youth helping my mother prepare and can food. She was a prepper in a time when it wasn’t needed.

We did it more out of necessity. Lots of mouths to feed and you could save a lot of money buying bulk and canning.

It was odd for people to not have food on hand. Now it is almost the exact opposite.
