I favor open carry of them.
Hehe
and your wages were about 1/3 what they are now.
Do they use local or wholesale raccoon meat?
Don’t laugh - it just encourages him

That’s amazing. The prices are much higher in some other parts of the country.
Considering their overhead, three bucks isn’t bad at all nowadays.
Congrats!

My husband and I tried the vegan thing for a few months years ago when it was supposed to be so great -we were both raised on ranches in remote areas, and our moms were naturalists/organic food types-but there was grass-fed, free range pork, beef and chicken on the menu along with the home-grown organic veggies and fruit, and we’d grown up eating that way. As adults following the same paleo-type diet, our systems did not like the shortage of protein and animal fat in the vegan diet. We lost energy, so we took most of the grains-especially wheat-out of the diet, put back the meat and went back to the paleo eating. I’ve eaten that way since.
There are quite a few people who are naturalists here. Some eat like I do, some are vegan, and some even eat baked stuff with refined processed sugar and processed/white flour which makes no sense to me-once it is processed, it is not “organic”. the small-chain grocery store 20 miles away has grass-fed, free range meat, cage-free eggs, local organic-grown veggies and many of the same brands of organic stuff as stores in the city like Whole Foods carry-Bob’s Red Mill, Hain, etc. There are also a couple of farm to table restaurants here-located on the real farm/guest ranches where the food is grown/produced. The food there is fresh, well-prepared and they have both Texas and California wines as well as from France, Argentina, etc...
yes
people can debate the details of diets all day and all night
but
most of us can pretty much recognize what’s basically healthy and what isn’t
most of the time
it is like, fresh versus old food, natural foods versus chemical-laced factory-processed foods, balanced diet versus ice cream all day
in general, the longer the ingredients list the worse it may be for health
even peanut butter. as long as a person isn’t allergic, some real PB has to be okay in a diet methinks. But there are 200 different bottles on the shelf.. about 6 or 8 say “peanuts, period”... and the rest have all sorts of artificial oils and chemicals and preservatives and junk added.
you can guess which one I buy

The last time I had a bought cup of coffee was 5 years ago when my SO took me on a getaway weekend at a river cabin Air B&B in the next county North. I’m partial to Colombian coffee, brewed fresh here at home every morning-but the price of ground coffee is nearly twice what it was less than 3 years ago...
I include “real” peanut butter in my prepper supplies-you are right about the list of non-peanut ingredients/preservatives in most brands-I buy Adams natural PB. I’m surprised that some brands even contain peanuts at all. It is almost like margarine-if that had a couple more ingredients, it could be soft, flavored plastic-no way will I buy that, either...
agree about the PB. Addams is one of several good brands.
We have a super-expensive grocery that we avoid like the plague...
a little 8 inch apple pie was sitting on the table there and a guy walks in and picks it up to purchase it and sees the 28.99 price tag and literally threw it back on the table in utter disgust.
anyway, we don’t shop there, we just go once in a very great while as an entertainment tour.
but... they have a machine that grinds fresh PB for you.
that I like and patronize.
but yes, the bottled brands that are 100 percent pnuts are our usual fare and we love it.
we use a little butter but zero oleomargarine. However, some margarines are supposed to be healthy for us? I was raised with butter and my parents would not normally buy margarine. so i keep to it. thus far, I am still vertical

Thanks for the link-but I’ll stay with butter, too. I don’t think anything that lists processed oils is healthier than just plain old butter...
There isn’t any place within 50 miles that grinds the PB-that would be really nice.
We’ll be fit and healthy just in time for the EMP attack! 😄
Eating anything at Denney’s? Well, there’s your first mistake.
I was considering buying a PB grinding machine but we just don’t eat THAT MUCH of it and the place is already cluttered with little specialized appliances we dont use much
but yes, it is really nice when it is ground fresh
still, the Adams and a couple other brands of “100 percent natural PB” in jars...are very good
and while I often follow Mayo Clinic advices, in this case I am sticking with regular real butter. I just don’t trust the margarine much is all. My parents taught me that way, they didn’t trust it either. It SEEMS to be a good product but I figure, I don;t need to bother with it when there’s still natural butter available.
Things don’t cost more.
Dollars are worth less.
