Anyone stocking up more and more??

[repete]

I've noticed less choices and selection, less available on the shelves of those reduced selections, increased prices and smaller quantities.

3 examples I saw just today.

12oz of bacon package (is now a thing apparently) and it's being sold for what a 1lb (16oz) used to sell for

Way less frozen vegetables available. Way less choices and way less quantity.

Other aisles appeared to be fully stocked but in reality were not the front row was pulled to the edge things were only stacked 1 deep and empty shelves behind

It's real.

As a country we Americans have been spoiled, we've become so used to seeing full shelves with an assortment of junk thats all basically the same that when there is a 'shortage' we panic (in some cases). Well welcome to the rest of the world and the new America!

no yeast ... only need 3 things ..

 

[Acer-m14]

I’ve done this once already. Potato yeast makes potato bread. Not bad, but not great either. I need to play around and tweek it better to my liking. It is a good thing to know though.

i do like the store bought potato bread .,.. never made myself .. but like you said .. its good to know ..

i remember making sour dough bread in high school .. i know you need a starter to make it .. will have to look that up ..

Anyone stockpiling gold/silver? I think either way this is a wise move. Either (A) things get better and funny money fiat takes a back seat to something more tangible and less manipulatable, or (B) the great reset happens and the only way to escape insane taxation is through barter and trading via precious metals.

I guess "they" could try confiscating precious metals, but seeing how they've tried rolling out the vax makes me think they don't want to antagonize us to that degree. I think they want to just pester and shame us endlessly instead of provoking all out confrontation.

Gave her the first burn off last night.
Doesn’t have a separate door for air and therefore temp control but seemed to work well and maintain heat.
Next is throwing her, some kindling, and round cooking rack into a camo bucket and stick it with my gear.

Reviews everywhere put this at the top of many lists.

IDK, Looks like a nice unit. I think I'm going to go with this one though. https://www.amazon.com/Bruntmor-Cam...a457b&pd_rd_wg=WEfw6&pd_rd_i=B07KX7ZNWR&psc=1

Hard to tell but I think this one is heavier gauge steel that will last longer and it looks easier to dump ash. Either way these are the way to go for sure!

 

[Doc8404]

This thing is heavy. Seems to have ceramic in it

Aldi’s had split boneless chicken breasts for $1.29 a pound today

Do you guys have Hannaford?
was 89 cents

I returned my communist made generator and bought a proper capitalist Subaru generator. Bought a few 5 gallon gas cans at 25 bucks each, ouch! and yesterday I bought a used wood burning stove.






I dam near lost a nut moving it . its almost 500 pounds. Im not the man I used to be, as a kid I would have manhandled it. Now I got to hook it up and figure out how to run it safe.

89¢ for chicken breast!?! Wow that’s low.
unfortunately no

Split. Not boneless skinless. That was 1.99

 

[tgenec86]

I check in at our local Hannafords market - every week they have one bone-in type of chicken on sale at $0.89lb. Of course, we feed our Great Dane that chicken, but if the SHTF he'll be eating scraps and we'll be eating the chicken! If things get really awful I'll have to check on the nutritional value of Liberal for him. I have to think that it would be easy to digest for a big dog. It's already thin skinned, gutless and spineless.

No just palladium and Rodium (could store more)
Yeah! I wish! Gold and silver will always be traded. History has proved. As far as government, remember Back in 33’ executive order 6102 said you couldn’t own more than $100 in gold coin. Only thing to consider is, keep the increments small. Like, in the event, kilos of silver would be hard to move. Hence- one oz, 5 oz. and with gold, platinum, 1 gram break off bars.

"Welcome to the rest of the world" is a bit exagerated. There are so many things we can buy in other countries that we cannot buy in America.
For example in many places quality unprocessed fresh food is not found everywhere or at reasonable prices.
For example, 2lbs of grass fed rib-eye steak is 4 times the cost vs. In the north of portugal.
A pound of good peaches in season is 4-5 times that cost.
One cannot find a decent bread from a wood fired oven for 1 - 1.5 dollars a loaf like in the South of France
I am a foodie and pay attention to those things and how bad the food sector is getting with the industrial foods.
I guess there are areas where is easier to find but on average large supermarkets sell a lot of shit people eat, expensive shit.
I also imagine many people do not care and why we are where we are.

Yes much to my wife's disappointment I keep buying extra on groceries every week.

Extra salt, flour, canned goods, pickles, rice, pasta etc...

If you use WalMart Sometimes we do grocery pickup and I add something like this to our order. Just an idea

Augason Farms 48-Hour 4-Person Emergency Food Supply, 95 oz - Walmart.com

Buy Augason Farms 48-Hour 4-Person Emergency Food Supply, 95 oz at Walmart.com

www.walmart.com

I have a sneaking suspicion companies are selling really low quality food that happens to be shelf stable at higher prices by marketing it a emergency prepper food and selling it in a bucket.



That does not look appetizing at all to me but curiously has very high ratings. Probably tastes a lot better if you're judging it as emergency food and you eat it in the panic room of your furnished abandoned missile silo.

Have you tried this specific item or were you merely using it as an example? I'm open to the possibility of being wrong as MRE/Ready-To-Eat food technology has come a long way.

Also in regards to the OP video. I'm not surprised guy with prepper youtube channel is saying NOW IS REALLY THE TIME TO BE PREPPING SHIT IS REAL THIS TIME. I think it's wise no matter who you are and whether you ascribe to the "prepper" culture to have some emergency supplies on hand.

Spending a decent amount of time in Europe, showed this exact thing to me.

I have always been amazed at how much awesome food and drink can be found outside of the US.

Sure, in Europe, you will not find a pizza as big as in NYC, but then again, not as many fat bodies in Europe.

People eat lots of bread over there so I dont thing is the bread or pizza that makes people fat but the poisons the supermarkets and food industry are
putting on them.

Our food is very, very, very different here in the US as compared with oversees.

lmao this was terrible. The water is going to leak into the lid space between the buckets and into the "filtered" area. There is going to be waisted water in area of the bucket below the spigot. He also doesn't use food grade buckets and suggests using caulk or silicon for leaks. smh

He doesn't even drink it at the end! lol

I dont trust those articles and when it comes to processed foods from multinationals they are all going to be shit.
They might be different from different plants but none is going to be good.
My point is something as simple as a decent bread, or milk or eggs.
I have not had any milk that tasted like cows milk. Most milk tastes like shit including organic grass fed one and way more expensive than overseas.
Only in a couple of occasions I got decent milk from the Amish dairy store.
Whenever I see real Amish butter I buy 4 or 5 pounds. That is good butter. I cook with gee.
The butter they sell at the store is shit.
That vegetable margarine people buy (including organic) is so bad that might be the same grease GM uses in their transmissions.
It is legalized, fda approved poisoning.
Why anyone would eat that like philadelphia cheese and burger "american" cheese is beyond my understanding. That yellow cheese has no dairy in it!.
Get some cheddar or provolone instead.
Oh, thats more expensive!

When I was in Egypt, the Brits used to have some kind of bread shipped in. I enjoyed it so much that I befriended a couple of British Soldiers just so I could more of their bread. It was freaken awesome. The Two Soldiers were good guys as well.

I would have done the same.
And that is the UK... That is anglo food.
..like germany is a bit unsophisticated and barbarian. ..eh still enjoy a good sausage and beer if it is good quality.

Now think about wood fire stone ovens and fresh bread and baked stuff from Spain, France, Italy, Portugal....

Butterflied baby lamb in the earth oven... Now you are talking.

may be able to do with just picking up stones too
