Do you have links to those videos?

Are any of you actually opening up some of this food once in a while?
I find less and less pieces of actual food in cans of soup for instance, and what is in there probably came from China.
Bump!
I've tried the freeze dried ice cream and bacon. Both were excellent.
There are a lot of them so all you do is use search words like foodsaver, mylar, bags, dehydrate etc.
Tell me about asparagus. Can starters be purchased so that you don’t have to wait the several years for them to mature? I’m putting in a square foot garden and would love to get some going but am impatient. :) And butternut squash - have you ever tried deep fried squash chips? They are out of this world. So good I wonder why restaurants have not served them. Just slice thin, toss with cayenne and nutmeg (or whatever you want), deep fry for a few minutes, most of the oil stays in the fryer, serve with sour cream and salt. We don’t deep fry many things, but we always deep fry that.
I wish I knew about the asparagus but this is the first I’ve tried to grow it. I bought what is said to be 3 year old plants from the feed store so hopefully we will get some this year, we’ll see.
We love butternut squash soup but never tried deep fried chips. I’ll have to try them, thanks for the tip. I can never keep chips in the house bc DH never seems to get his fill.
Good luck on your square foot garden too, I think we will all be grateful to have them this year.
