It wasn’t all that long ago that the government was stock piling cheese, just so it could all be given away. Now they want butter?

I’m sure WND is stockpiling whirled nuts.

Most Americans are storing at least a year’s worth of calories around their waist and hips. Of all things to try to hype concern about, this is the most ridiculous.

"....locals are beginning to hoard supplies." Fearing run-a-way inflation, some folks spending their "stimulus" checks on food?

Canned butter? Is there such thing as canned white bread?
Let us know if they start stocking up on PB&J and tuna fish.

The place where I bought a case of MREs had a long list of Mountain Home #10 cans that are sold out and some more that are near sellout. They still do have Mountain House Freeze Dried Cottage Cheese for $50.00. Mmmmmm, mmmmmm! Freeze dried cottage cheese. But they ran out of 30 year storage freeze dried sliced bananas.

The butter is meaningless. Ignore it. You all are missing the important thing:
Spokesman Bruce Hopkins told WND he also has had trouble obtaining No. 10 cans of various products from one of the world's larger suppliers of food stores, Oregon Freeze Dry. The butter is just a ruse, to throw us off the trail. It's the No. 10 CANS that are important, not what is IN them.
Someone is hoarding the #10 cans somewhere. The question is, why?

A war with Iran would not cause massive food shortages in the US. Article makes no sense. Using ethanol as energy might, if the government doesn’t let prices adjust to accomodate shortages of corn and the downstream shotages that will be created as a result.

Maybe they are believing this guy. http://video.yahoo.com/watch/2064785/6509164
Not saying I believe him but I wouldn’t be surprised if it did happen.
Now the important thing is the government is buying food in tin cans. Are they buying manual can openers as well or do they think everybody will use their electric can openers in a big disaster.
