My yahoo in box should be worth a fortune....
It’s krazy tasty !
SPAM it's what’s for dinner!
Check out how much beans are on the store shelves compared to just a few years ago.
People can't afford to eat the way they once did. They are starting to eat on the cheap about every other day.
The bible says: A prudent man sees danger and takes refuge, but the simple keep going and suffer for it. NIV Proverbs 22:3
Take a look around flash mobs, soaring food prices, tyranny and race baiting by our own government, joblessness, cities going bankrupt a whole litany of warnings be prudent and start preparing.

You will find articles on many of the questions that you are asking as well as many questions that haven’t occur to you as of yet. It’s written for those just starting or for those who are old hands at prepping.
For those of you who haven’t started already it’s time to prepare almost past time maybe. You needed to be stocking up on food guns, ammo, basic household supplies like soap, paper goods, cleaning supplies, good sturdy clothes including extra socks, underwear and extra shoes and boots, screws, nails, plywood, barbed wire, tools, things you buy everyday start buying two and put one up.
As the LDS say “When the emergency is upon us the time for preparedness has past.”
Breakdowns do occur read some of Selco writings a Bosnian who lived through their civil war or Ferfal who live through Argentina’s financial collapse. Such troubles do occur and when they do things get ugly quick. No one is claiming things will turn Mad Max or Book of Eli, but desperate people often commit desperate acts or as one of my favorite quotes goes:
“Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: The Siege of AR-558 (#7.8)” (1998)
Quark: Let me tell you something about Hew-mons, Nephew. They’re a wonderful, friendly people, as long as their bellies are full and their holosuites are working. But take away their creature comforts, deprive them of food, sleep, sonic showers, put their lives in jeopardy over an extended period of time and those same friendly, intelligent, wonderful people... will become as nasty and as violent as the most bloodthirsty Klingon. You don’t believe me? Look at those faces. Look in their eyes.
Lastly this for the doubters and the scoffers.
“There is no greater disaster than to underestimate danger.
Underestimation can be fatal.”
How long can canned spam actually last on the shelf beyond the expiration date?
The best Saturday morning cartoons breakfast food ever, with fried eggs and toast, of course.
SPAM will always love me as much as I love SPAM.
Spam is all anyone can afford anymore...
:~D
Many’s the day when me and my horse Old Crayon would drive the Spamalopes to market in Old Toadsuck, Arkansas.
I’m not really a prepper but I have enough Spam, PorknBeans and other stuff I could easily go a couple months. I do have to remember to restock continually though.
Spam Haikus (For those who are rusty, haiku is an unrhymed Japanese lyric poem fixed three lines consisting of 5,7, and 5 syllables respectively.)
1.
Blue can of steel
What promise do you hold?
Salt flesh so ripe
2.
Can of metal, slick
Soft center, so cool, moistening
I yearn for your salt
3.
Twist, pull the sharp lid
Jerks and cuts me deeply but
Spam, aah, my poultice
4.
Silent, former pig
One communal awareness
Myriad pink bricks
5. Clad in metal, proud
No mere salt-curing for you
You are not bacon
6.
And who dares mock Spam?
You? You? You are not worthy
Of one rich pink fleck.
7.
Like some spongy rock
A granite, my piece of Spam
In sunlight on my plate.
8.
Little slab of meat
In a wash of clear jelly
Now I heat the pan
9. Oh tin of pink meat
I ponder what you may be:
Snout or ear or feet?
10.
In the cool morning
I fry up a slab of Spam
A dog barks next door
11.
Pink tender morsel
Glistening with salty gel
What the hell is it?
12.
Ears, snouts and innards
A homogeneous mass
Pass another slice
13.
Old man seeks doctor
“I eat Spam daily,” he says.
Angioplasty
14.
Highly unnatural
The tortured shape of this “food”
A small pink coffin
15.
Pink beefy temptress
I can no longer remain
Vegetarian
