Another use for hard candies: Hard peppermint candies, dissolved in warm water, will alleviate the discomfort of a colicky baby. My mom was an RN & she used this remedy for her grandchildren. Just dissolve 1 or 2 peppermint candies in warm water & pour it into a baby bottle. The relief isn't instant, but the baby will start feeling better within 15-30 minutes.

I will try to explain in english which is not my mother language. I store grains in glass pots: in France we have a special brand : " Le Parfait". (They have an internet web site) I put 3/4 in the pot : on the top of tve grains I put a thin "etamine" (or compresse), then I put a "table candle"(a little one) . I light it. Then I close the pot , using the special orange caoutchouc. A few seconds after, the light is over: no more air in the pot, no more oxygen. Insects can not survive without air. I hope it was understandable?😊

Interesting. I have never heard of that but the logic is that as long as contents is dry (as opposed to something like canned soup) bacteria can't be a much of concern so pasteurization (boiling an uncooked meal in the can to kill germ and remove oxygen) is less of a necessity. Also you can retrive rubber and candles in time of need is a good addition. I think it is advisable to use a honeywax candle instead of the paraffine one though? Otherwise it must smells like oil. Don't do that with canned soup though, some bacteria such as botulism is anaerobic (can survive without oxygen).

Baking powder expires because moisture causes the acid and alkaline components to react, resulting in flat baked goods. Baking powder is two parts cream of tartar and one part baking soda. Stored separately and dry, both parts last indefinitely. No need for flat muffins. Make fresh baking powder as you need it.

Be grateful that you have a lot of the items Kris mentions in this video because after 30 days of Augeson Farms emergency food you might not want to eat ever again. It's ideal to create your own food kits with a lot of the above packed within.

Thanks Kris, lots of useful info. I'd like to add spices and herbs to that list. If kept unopened, they can taste fresh for several years at least. Many things that are fermented and/or pickled can as well. Also, about the alcohol, it needs to be at least 100 proof to be used as an antiseptic, at least that's what I've always read, I didn't recall you specifically saying that. If it won't light on fire it isn't high enough proof. Yours did, so it was. Maybe I just missed you saying it.

Growing up these items were normally kept and found in our household... I'll never forget a conversation I had with my Mema could've been 2015-2016ish during my visit with her the news was on and of course lots of craziness was going on then, she stated, "You know if things were to go back to how it was when I was growing up I would be just fine, we knew how to survive with what we had." Oh how I miss her and could use her wisdom today. She passed in 2020, wish we could speak right today she would have the blueprint on how to navigate the times ahead.

We've prepped for years since 2010. We have all these items except corn syrup. I'm not going to store that. When we moved from SC to Florida, we accidentally left one of our prep totes in the barn and didn't discover it until 5 years later. Thought it was Christmas items since it was among those totes. It contained pasta, bullion, some peas,beans, and sugar. It's definitely a mixed bag of stuff. After 5 years in the barn in the Florida heat and humidity, everything but one bag of beans were still good. Apparently, those beans had a small hole in the mylar bag. I wouldn't suggest leaving anything in the heat or extreme cold like that, but it's good to know if properly stored things do stay good. Even the beans were cooked and given to the chickens, so nothing was thrown away. Just because my stuff ended up OK, we were lucky. Because of our chickens we've developed a rodent problem. You'd be surprised how determined mice and rats can be. I've seen buckets chewed apart. If you do store anything outside including chicken feed make sure to get the extremely durable totes. There's also concentrated peppermint oil that you can spray around those areas to keep them away.

You can take beans that are cooked but crunchy and make bean burgers in a food processor. Take drained "crunchy" cooked beans, add cooked rice, flour, binder like egg or flax, seasonings, process, then form into patties. Cook in oven or skillet. If your cooking broth has vinegar in it the beans texture will be wrong. But it is an asset in a bean burger!

Vinegar is preferred over apple cider, which is only 2% acidic. There are very few canning recipes in my canning book both put out by rogue counters, counters, and USDA. They all prefer to for long-term storage. I have found myself apple cider vinegar with the mother, which is very easy to make at home! Will not hold up to long-term meaning more than 3 to 5 years. That has been my personal experience you may have had a different one. Apple cider vinegar does make a good salad dressing as well. However, cannot clean in my opinion as well as vinegar can.

Canned goods are indefinite as well or no - I hear conflicting things or that they liquify or taste like the can etc
@dr.m9395
@dr.m9395 Ай бұрын
Generally if the can is intact (the food should look and smell and taste normal) it’s safe. Some foods are acidic, and the quality will degrade faster, like tomato sauce . Still sterile but horrible quality. Fatty foods like peanut butter go rancid if oxygen is present. Still safe to eat but taste horrible, unless you’re one of the few who doesn’t taste rancidity. Consequently I freeze Peanut Butter and olive oil for over 5 years without issue. Hormel notes their products have no expiration date, and stay safe to eat but quality can degrade over time. See website. Cougar gold canned cheese , Bega cheese, red feather butter are canned without oxygen. They have indefinite shelf lives. Note that the latter two have expiration dates in the US but not abroad. FWIW I’ve eaten all of these at 10 years old with no issues. Over time canned food quality degrades. ‘Best by” dates usually reflect the time in which a subset of a sample of eaters (I think 5% if I recall) can detect a difference between a new and old can of food. Not necessarily bad, but a difference. Hope that helps.

I can personally attest that alcohol will last a VERY long time before going bad. My grandmother wanted to clean out her liquor cabinet and there was a bottle of gilbeys gin that had to be at least 30 years old, if not 40 years old. It was so old that it was in a glass bottle. It had been on that liquor cabinet for as long as I can remember and I am in my early 40s. Rather than waste it and pour it out I drank it. Did not get sick. Made a bunch of gin and tonics over a few weeks. It was 2/3 full when I got the bottle.

Soaking white rice will not soften it to eat, unless you soak it so long it ferments. I make Rice Wine and have to cook the rice before fermenting because weeks of fermenting uncooked rice still leaves hard rice. Just an example of people putting information together with good intentions but don't really know the facts. Take compiled information like this as a tip and just experiment yourself now with things so you know for yourself. This is where "Wives Tales" come from.

I've been exclusively plant-based eating almost entirely whole foods for more than a decade, and it's made my preps basically part of daily living. I make most meal staples in a pressure cooker, prepared from dried foods bought in bulk. Dried beans, rice, pasta, oats etc. Add some frozen produce like spinach, corn, kale, and a handful of dried nuts and seeds and I'm good to go. I add onions, garlic, and root vegetables like potatoes, sweet potatoes, and other spices from the garden and I'm all set.

Do you have a recipe book or site you like? Where do you purchase dried vegetables?

@@DHW3000 Great questions! Everything I make is basically stuff I grew up eating, but healthier and more prepper friendly so no recipe books to recommend unfortunately. As for shopping, most of my bulk goods I buy from grocers like "Mom's Market" which have really inexpensive options. Dried organic peas are less than $1.50/lb, organic steel cut oats are around $2-3.00/lb. To make sure I'm getting all my nutrients, I downloaded, printed, and laminated a graphic of Greger's Daily Dozen...a glorified checklist of food categories to eat each day (e.g., cruciferous vegetables, berries, seeds, etc.). And since I'm not eating fortified foods, I take a B12 supplement and Vitamin D in the winter...I buy those in bulk too. Hope that helps, and happy prepping! nutritionfacts.org/topics/daily-dozen/

Will all these foods supply complete nutritional needs?

No. For nutrition focus on animal proteins (canned seafoods, dehydrated or freeze dried meats) and quality fats. Animal fats are more stable and will last longer, but coconut and olive oil would be good as well. Protein and fat are *essential* macronutrients. Like a "Duralog" they will burn more cleanly and efficiently and keep you satisfied longer. Carbohydrates (sugar) is not essential. Although it can give you short burst of energy (think kindling), it often leads to a crash and more cravings. A good quality multivitamin and added magnesium would be a good idea as well. Our bodies need/ use more b vitamins, magnesium and vitamin c under stress. I say added magnesium because there is never enough magnesium in a multivitamin. Magnesium is a large mineral and I prefer the magnesium glycinate form for absorption. Most people need around 400 mg/ day. If you see magnesium oxide on the back Supplement Facts label -- it's poorly absorbed. Magnesium citrate might help you have a bowel movement.

I open a bag of butterscotch hard candies that we expired by a year and they smaller SO rancid! I’m guessing it was the high fructose corn syrup??? I’m thinking a box of sugar cubes would be better. 😊

nah you should go for rock sugars unless it was for cooking lmao. They take less space in storage and lasts longer than normal sugar as it is resistent to bugs.

Make sure your maple syrup is real maple syrup. All the cheap stuff is actually high fructose corn syrup, which has a much shorter than 'forever' shelf life.

Very true!Also, for honey and Maple syrup, to keep indefinitely they shouldn't be stored in plastic containers.

The corn syrup in plastic bottles takes on flavor and if stored long enough will make pin holes in that plastic bottle. Experience speaks here, lol.
