Lots of good thoughts on this video. One thing that a lot of people dont think about is prescription drugs. Most of us older folks are on some sort of daily medicines. Another thing is physical health. Im almost 64 and spent 30 years in the coal industry. My health isnt very good. I've had two spinal fusions and do good to walk very far, so I know i would have a hard time cutting wood, carrying water and such. First sid supplies are another consideration. Basic first aid supplies are pretty easy to accumulate. I am talking about things like antibiotics, cold, flu and allergy meds. Medicine for diarrhea, constipation and other stomach ailments. Lets face it a big change in your diet can cause some pretty serious stomach and intestinal ailments. Some if not treated could csuse death. A person in these situations is probably going to have toest some questionable food. A lot to think about. I was glad to hear you mention hickory cane corn. Thsts all that people raised when i was a boy. I love that, but hardly anymore raises it. Cut off the cob and fried is hard to beat. Add several big slices of fresh tomato to go along with and you're right in business.

We went to bed hungry at times and dad had 3 large gardens, a hog lot with 30 hogs and more chickens than we could count. If dad and mom hadn't smoked cigarettes, dad bought beer and liquor and he gambled and fought roosters...and those were a waste of money. But you, me Jm÷s and Jessie made sure our kids didn't go hungry. This was a good video brother.
