I'm on disability and rely on public assistance for food. I have been buying canned food and pre-packaged food that I'm leaving untouched in case things get dicey in the next couple of years. I will keep buying food that will last every chance I get until sanity returns (if it ever does). I live in Alaska and most food comes through Canada by truck and anything that has to be air shipped is already quite expensive. Food prices in Alaska are some of the highest in the nation, though there are more farms and greenhouses here than most people realize. Even with more farms and small gardens, our growing season is short (but intense: nearly 24hrs of sunlight), it wouldn't be enough. There isn't much land for domestic animals and local animals still haven't been domesticated and even if hunting was done on a wide scale, it wouldn't make much of dent. Plus years and years of republican "leadership" and MAGA policies have left record numbers of people here homeless and struggling to find enough to eat. Things are going to get really really bad up here.

I focused on shelf stable, no-frills nutrition like dehydrated egg and milk, oats, dry beans, white rice, plain pasta, ramen, baking staples, texturized veg protein, and added a variety of flavor mixes and dehydrated ingredients. I also have a lot of frozen stuff like meats, veggies, fruit, and cheese and other dairy staples.

I have an avocado tree. If you are going to freeze them, you need to douse it in lemon juice or they will turn brown. (cut open and scooped out) They also need to be sealed tightly. I suggest people grow what they can, if not make friends with people that do have fruits/vegetable growing. Start researching what can be substituted. Looks like we are going on a diet weather we planned to or not.

And yes, you can freeze avocados (remove from skin and pit) mash up, fill into a ziploc freezer bag remove air and freeze. This is will be our 3rd summer in our new place and I am DETERMINED to get my victory garden going this year because of all this. I’m reteaching myself to can foods.

I love what I hear about homesteading and having fresh eggs etc., but chickens are not pets. They carry salmonella on their bodies and contaminate the ground they live on with it. I’ve had a neighbor that just let his young kids go in a chicken pen and cuddle them, etc. I bet the kids didn’t even bathe afterwards. 😓

I've done some stocking up of canned foods, rice, pasta, and I am putting nearly 50% of my paycheck into savings/CDs each payday (on top of 12% into my 401K plus match). I am trying to bolster my savings as much as I can since I'm several years behind. My house and car are both paid off. Currently over 50% of my retirement is dependent on SS. I am doing everything I can to reduce that as much as possible. I was originally planning on working until 67, but now plan on claiming SS (if there is anything left to claim) at 67 and working for another couple of years and banking all the ss check, plus 50% of my paycheck. If there is no SS left when I turn 67, well, I guess I'll have to work until I drop dead.

Prepping is a conversation the left should have been having years ago. I grew up in earthquake country and there was a focus on stocking up on essentials for an emergency Ive been through two bad earthquakes, a hurricane, a pandemic, and layoffs.

Until the government supplants cash with digital currency (imho cannot be trusted), cash will still get attention, especially in an emergency. You better believe im doing inventory now.

It's so odd that the petrolheads with their Iove of the IC engines DO NOT praise EV drivers to the stars. Every EV you see on the road is one less IC car in the gas line, sucking up gasoline and pushing up the price. The reduced demand for gasoline puts downward price pressure on fuel. So, if you love your IC car, you should also love the EVs.
