No it is this sort of attitude that is causing the problems. There is no food shortage or toilet roll shortage, there is a supply chain issue and its people en mass hoarding like this that is causing the issues.

[@medicmike4906]

@@vtecbanger3180 Go get a 50-pound bag of rice and the same for dry beans if you can find it. Go to your local hardware store Lowes especially. Buy the white food-grade 5-gallon buckets with lids. (make sure it is the lids with the gasket on the bottom) Go online while you still can and buy 15-inch x 2 ft. mylar food grade bags as well as the appropriately sized oxygen absorbers. Quietly grab your wife's flat curling iron. place the mylar bag into the 5-gallon bucket pour enough rice into the mylar bag to fill 3/4 of the bucket throw in the oxygen absorber and push it about 3 inches under the surface. open the curling iron and place the last 2 inches of the mylar bag between the heating elements of the curling iron. Run that curling iron all the way over to the opposite side of the mylar bag stopping 3 inches from the end. turn on the shop vac place the suction end into that 3 inch opening as the mylar bag begins to shrink from the air leaving the bag and all of the air is sucked out once again continue to seal the mylar that remains open with the curling iron. leave the lid off of the bucket for 24 hours if you did it correctly that mylar bag will still look like a compressed brick. Then label the side of the bucket with the contents and the date with either a label maker or a sharpie and snap the lid on the bucket. congratulations you now have a 50-pound rice bucket that is good for 20 + years. The same thing can be done with dry beans, flour, pasta, occasionally remove the tops of your buckets to confirm the mylar seals once a year. mylar bags can be found on Amazon or eBay. Make sure you use the appropriately sized oxygen absorber otherwise your preps could be compromised and make sure your absorbers stay sealed at all times otherwise they will change colors indicating they have been exposed to the air around you and rendered useless. This method above allows you to have a lower reliance on can foods only. I hope I have explained this process adequately. ******But start today****** work everyday on your preps. Water especially.

I have been called a food hoarder. I went hungry as a child. I would read books like "Kim," by Rudyard Kipling, and dream of the loafs of bread that Kim would eat. I used to raid peoples gardens at night and eat from apple and cherry trees, during the summer months. My parents were children of the depression, and kept food locked away from me. My sisters and I would play a game where we would look at magazines for pictures of food and see who could grab at the page first. I spent my early adulthood gorging myself on foods I had never gotten my fill of as a child. I know what hunger is and I never want to experience that again.

This is what I've been wanting to create for so long. I have absolutely nothing saved but some water since there is no well. And not much about since I'm retired and I have no one to work with. This is so inspiring your video. I wish I knew a man like you who was interested in creating a garden and canning and being prepared. I do want to say in case you did not see the fellow who commented below about making sure your kids don't fall off in the event of an earthquake by putting up an extra board across the shelves. David, you truly are miraculous compared to 99.9% of the population who has no clue what to do or how to do it and you've done it. And you keep preparing. I wish I could meet a a man like you who is single and would like to have a friend to prepare for hard times with. Definitely difficult to find. I've looked for over 30 years. Why anyone would think that prepping is a bad thing or makes one crazy is crazy in itself.

Meat is pressure canned. The pressure and heat cooks and sterilizes the meat inside the jar. It's super tender, and good (if properly sealed: as the jar cools the air compresses, leaving a vacuum that holds the sterility) for years.

TO ALL PREPPERS AND SURVIVALISTS AND OFFGRIDDERS AND BUNKERERS AND HOMESTEADERS AND FORTIFIERS AND ARMORERS ON KZbin. THIS IS MY ADVICE.

[@hfortenberry]

@@kimberlyoliver680 You do not sound dumb. Mountain House is a popular brand of freeze-dried meals as seen in #10 cans filling his prepper pantry. You can buy single-meal packages for hiking/camping (check out the camping section in Walmart or REI) or larger packages which people often put away for long-term storage in case of food shortages.

[@ymimad49]

I am a senior lady living alone, but I have stored food and supplies for the last ten yrs. now that I am 70 I have cut back a lot cause I just cant eat it all. I have some freeze dried food but its too expensive to buy for me now. so I always keep basics, flour, sugar, salt, oatmeal, instant potatoes, rice, powdered milk, ramen, all kinds of pasta and canned sauce. I can sustain myself for a while if there is something that keeps me from going to the store, like a disaster or something. anyway, you have prepped as much as you can and I think y ou can live off that food for quite some time as well as have something to give. great job!

You should keep about two weeks worth of water in easily portable containers in spite of your well and pool. I have seen wells collapse or go dry, before. They can be poisoned directly or contaminated by chemicals leaking into the aquifer from elsewhere. Also if you need to leave for a short time, you will have stuff ready to grab and go if needed.

[@theheritagehousesc]

Diana Smith I said the same thing. We had wells get dry and also contaminating. My folks can’t drink their well water anymore. Only for baths or washing clothes.

[@SurvivalBetty]

I have 4 wells all around my large property, so while I store more than he has, I also don't store much water. It's going to be situational.

[@dianasmith8166]

@@SurvivalBetty we had three springs and a well and all but one became contaminated. Before assuming that you'll be fine, take time to evaluate what's around each, within a ten mile radius. Factories, towns and farms that use commercial fertilizers or herbicides can all contribute to runoff or seepage that percolates down into the aquifer. The only reason our well wasn't contaminated was that it was artisian. I still remember having to walk half a mile twice a day with two gallon jars to fill so we could have drinking and cooking water. It was nearly a year before the tests came clean on the springs. All I recommend is enough water for two weeks. Gallon and a half per day per person. That's twenty-one gallons. Please, I'm glad that you're storing some water, but don't let the fact that you have four wells make you complacent. We thought we were good too.

[@SurvivalBetty]

@@dianasmith8166 I have that. So before you assume people don't, please understand we don't all typically disclose our preps on social media to that depth. A house filter, portable filters, and living out in the country in western Oregon- my water has been prepped.
