I just can’t believe anyone would criticize you for keeping a well-stocked pantry. Now more than ever, if people are not paying attention and buying extra to keep in their prepper pantry they will regret it. I am sorry that anybody would speak to you unkindly. I really appreciate that you share all of your knowledge. And I agree about not clearing the shelves. I never do that, but I always buy extra because I am currently building my prepper pantry. Take a little; leave a little. ❤️

I was sharing with an older woman at my local grocery store recently what the difference was between hoarding and stocking. "Me? This is stocking up.I replace what I use, then add an extra one or two on top of that. That guy over there? Those people over there, they are panic buying.. Scared people aren't PREPARED people (I emphasized the word prepared!). They go around pulling everything off the shelves with no plan, no foresight." After I was done talking to her, I left the store and you should have seen the carts people had, just overflowing with stuff. When I had been in there earlier, there was almost no pasta left. An old man was literally piling cans of campbells soup in his cart and another cart I saw 4 flats of the same cans, people taking ALL of the canned meats. These are people who clearly have not been doing anything about their situation until panic time. Sad.

@alan chappel I don't think so. I knew a couple of the people and they had told me to shut the hell up and stop spreading conspiracy theories. That was about 3 yrs ago. I don't actually know them. I am a acquainted with them, i should say. The fact that they WERE there, buying up tons of stuff tells me that either now they are starting to feel differently or perhaps they are losing a ton in their 401k?

I tried the alphabet from this brand and it got all sticky and flavorless even though I cooked it in bone broth to add flavor and nutrition. I think I used the vermicelli in the past in soups and it was fine. Do different cuts of pasta cook differently? I never had this problem with any other brand. Aldi's pasta brand doesn't pick the flavor easily so I stopped using, I still can't wrap my mind around the price increase of even generic pasta. (Prices of everything to be honest)

You don’t have to explain yourself. Hoarding is a mental health disorder. Panic shopping is what we try to prevent. If we lose power, people panic buy ice, batteries and flashlights. Every time a snow storm comes through my area or even a possibility of snow, people panic shop and buy things they don’t even need. Prepared people buy a little extra each time we shop (as you said).

Yes, when Michael headed our way people asked me why I was buying kool aid jammers and capri sun in pouches and not water or soda. I told the cashier these go in the holes in my freezer and freezer goes down to lowest setting. I already had water. She said I have never heard of that, I said they are like ice packs and if you need that them out and drink them. We ended up out if power 10 days. We had a generator but unable to come back for 36 hours all freezer items were still good when we got back and started up the generator. We cooked outside on grill and brought him b.c. 15 gallons of water per day to wash dishes, ourselves, and flush the toilet. We have a well so no power no water. The stocking up on shelf stable foods and quick heating food really helped us out. My husband still went to work 3 days after Michael went through. As long as I have the means and the place I will have a well stocked pantry. I have given food to my neighbors twice when they were in need. Nothing is better than helping out when you can. Thanks for the video.

I'm just going to say it again for those who need to hear it: Please never let "not perfect" keep you from doing "good enough". Especially when considering the future and how difficult it may become to feed our families. I want to encourage everyone to show yourselves and others some grace. Certainly most people would prefer clean, nutritious, organic whole foods. Not everyone can obtain this goal at all times. The struggle to keep ourselves and those who depend on us adequately fed might become an even greater struggle in the days and years ahead. Let us please aid one another. There is no shame in doing your best with the resources you find available to you.

The squishy peas can be added as an extender to avacado when making large amounts of guacamole. It is best to drain the canned peas, saving any liquid, and run them through a blender, adding back in the liquid as needed to obtain the consistency desired. Just be sure to add extra salt and lemon to taste. The idea comes from an old cookbook about catering and making large amounts of appetizers for a crowd.

That depression tuna casserole bake that Mary made the other week was great. I made it for my husband and myself and we had plenty left over to take to my mum . She loved it! I gave her two lunch time meals of it and she was so happy she had something yummy and warm for lunch as it is winter here in Australia. My mum lives with one of my other sisters and gets lots of great night time meals but lunch is a bit harder for her as my sister works during the day and my mum has only limited vision so its hard for her to prepare food for herself. If you want to save a bit of money on milk, and you have powered milk on hand, make up a litre of powdered milk and mix it with a litre of full cream milk from the shop.

I love ALDI and I've been shopping there for nearly 40 years. They're good about adjusting prices on their items. When they get a price break from their suppliers, you get a price break too. They're not afraid the lower prices, it seems. I'm fond of their canned mandarin oranges. Pre-Covid they were 88 cents. After Covid they were hard to find due to supply issues. When they appeared again the price shot up to $1.60. Now that some of the supply issue has been worked out, ALDI lowered the price to $1.20. (Still miss the 88 cents price tag but the price increase is understandable, considering the world's problems. At $1.20 they're still cheaper than any local store where they're almost $2 a can.)

I throw broth/stock in to a crockpot with frozen veg (or fresh frozen that I chopped up) a few seasonings and some ham hocks or smoked turkey wings...let it cook all day. Sometimes I just do pinto beans n ham hocks (or any leftover ham or smoked sausage). Add some crusty bread or cornbread. Some Aldi icecream sandwiches or whatever. Cheap meal and everybody goes home full and happy!! Love my Aldi deals. Thank you Mary for your great ideas and explanations...I am 60 and still learning alot from you...God bless you back!

I just finished a pot or pinto beans that I made last week. I rotate them in my pantry - and those were 8 years old. Soaked them overnight, cooked them low and slow all day long, added about 1/2 lb of bacon chopped up finely and cooked until crisp, added an onion diced, a pound of ground chuck browned, salt, pepper, a touch of cayenne pepper and yum!! Made white rice to add to it and I've eaten on it all week!

Boy Mary! Our pantry saved my family of six many times over the years. We lived off it, literally, off it alone, through job losses, recession of the 70's and 80's, my cancers causing disability retirement and then my chronic illnesses. Whew! Even lived off powdered milk from 50 lb bags bought directly from Michigan Milk producers and off Nido whole milk over last couple years. There were times we used powdered eggs and frozen eggs. We froze them when eggs on super sale. Hard now to find Super Sale eggs anywhere. Anyway, we did not ever hoard. However, we were mindful and prudent knowing to prepare in good times for the rough ones. You provide excellent counsel and ways to carry it out. Younger generations need you. That's for sure! God bless your dear heart💙

I live on the nature coast of Florida and have yeast, as pictured, baking soda, salmon, and sardines which many seem gross but the nutrition if you get the sardines in oil and no extra stuff dawn really help. . I blend it into sauces seems no one even knows it's there. I also got small bags of pasta and white albacore, safety caught it what ever they are calling it currently. I was surprised. I travel once per month to collaborate with my medical team and that's in a bit much more populated area and they had much less I was surprised. At the more rural one closest to my farm I sometimes find those really good deals and yeast and stuff like that in their aisle that highlights I don't know what they call it all the fines or specials or whatever they call great place to shop for a lot of things.... Good luck to each of you.

Hoarding is a mental health issue however if someone wants to have 20 bags/boxes of cereal that is their choice and within their own home and certainly not the same as keeping bags of trash, empty containers, expired/rotten food, etc, etc. Ms. Mary is doing a very good job at teaching and explaining and she must know this I hope based on # of followers anyhow perhaps the person commenting is too busy with what everyone else is doing rather than checking out their own pantry and business.

If people are commenting on ANY of your videos that what you bought was hoarding, they have absolutely no concept of what extended prepping is, and haven’t comprehended the state of the country right now. I would say they don’t cook all of their meals either or they would realize how quickly you go through food when preparing ALL of your meals. Having two or three cans of each vegetable for instance, is what might be in a working pantry, an extended pantry would be having dozens and dozens of cans of each vegetable. I suggest any who think that is hoarding to actually set down, plan a months worth of complete meals completely fixed at home for their entire family and add up just how much food that requires…and then X it by 12 for a years worth of food.

I use to buy those little things at the dollar stores that draw the moisture out of the air. Even at a dollar each if you use a lot this can add up.
