    I can see that I am a little late viewing this remarkable upload but better late than never. I am quite new to prepping but looking at the current state of the world today feel it's better late than never. A really informative upload with some amazing items some of which I am quite envious of. I can see that you have given your prepping a great deal of thought and have covered all aspects of what may be needed in that emergency scenario. But most importantly it has shown me certain items that I and my family may just require in the future. Thanks for a great upload, and best wishes.

    Bit late to this but I’m shocked at people’s attitude. When I buy things like chicken nuggets, fish fingers, sausages etc I usually look at the labels for the ingredients such as the actual meat or fish content. Some of the essentials range has the same as or even higher percentage in it than brands such as Birds Eye and the supermarkets regular own brand products. At the end of the day why are people so bothered what others eat? If they don’t want to eat cheaper food or can afford to get branded for everything then they can get on with it. Someone who is less fortunate eating beans, a loaf of bread and spread for under £2 has no impact on their lives whatsoever and it’s actually horrible that they try to shame someone for that. It breaks my heart knowing that children are going hungry and the cheaper products hopefully ensure that happens less😞.

    I'd begun to use the oven method, but I have to say that yours is, by far, the best video out there to see exactly what's going on. Mine has been taking longer than 20 minutes, because I always go slightly over half a pan's worth of liquid butter and it froths up a lot early on, which means I have to keep the induction at 4 (max 9). On the upside, this give me plenty of time to keep checking the base of the pan to get to just the right stage. The batch I've just made is the best yet. I've made about half a dozen large batches over about the last three years and now I feel as if I'm beginning to get a bit more confident that it's not all going to go horribly wrong (which is a bit of a fear when you're using 8 blocks of hideously expensive organic butter at a time).

    Looking at where your ceiling light is situated suggests that your house is built pre-1970, maybe even pre-WW2. I hope that your floorboards and joists are strong enough to carry all that weight. Explanation for non-Brits (or Brits under 50). Bedroom ceiling lights were always placed close to the window in working-class and some middle-class homes from the advent of electric lighting to newer builds from the 1970s onwards. This was for the sake of modesty. It meant the light was between the window and anyone undressing in the room so their undressed outline could not be seen through thinner curtains. Rich folks had the luxury of thick curtains of course.

    Baked beans I think is mainly the taste of the sauce, it can always be enhanced with a little of what you like, be it mild curry, smoked paprika etc. On one note now! after a year the Chilli Con carne of the JE range has near doubled in price!!!

    Hi Tilly. I'm a new subscriber. Just one piece of simple advice when buying tinned foods for storage when shopping, make sure the tin is not dented, damaged or swollen in any way. This could effect the quality or lifespan of the contents 👍

  • @CrowdControl2K8
    @CrowdControl2K8 Місяць тому

    They will replace all the natural ingredients with foreever chems. Buy raw ingredients and make it yourself. I'm 50, before cheap brands had cheaper contents not fake contents. It's all the main brands not just the value range. The info is all over the internet.

  • @lyndarina9839
    @lyndarina9839 Місяць тому

    I have read that stacking tins 3 or 4 directly atop one another can weaken the seams of the lowest tins over time. Better to place a thin cardboard layer or plywood between each layer of tins. Personally, I place my tins in trimmed down cardboard boxes and stack these on top of each other to help distribute the weight. Also, although the storage in this video of tins directly placed on shelves is so attractive, I live in an area where we occasionally get small earthquake tremors. All those loose tins could easily end up on the floor at my home. Placing the tins in boxes with the sides trimmed down to 3 inches before stacking will provide a lot more stability.

    @ericgray2485 Місяць тому

    New to this but I can imagine a lot of these food products will have similar best before/expiry dates. Therefore how do you consume them. What is the reality of safety of expired food stuffs. I find the whole subject overwhelming and I don’t know where to start.

    • @lyndarina9839
      @lyndarina9839 Місяць тому

      Ideally you should “rotate” your pantry food. That means organizing all your food, and consuming the foods that are closest to their expiration dates first. Some people take a sharpie pen and write the expiration date on the top of the food tin or package, so that you can quickly locate the expiration dates without having to pick up each tin and search for the expiration dates. Don’t buy foods that your family normally does not eat. Your prepper pantry should be filled with food that you regularly eat anyway with some extra for an emergency, if you rotate your food it will always be fresh. Takes a bit of time but worth it. That’s how grocery stores avoid having old expired food at the very back of every shelf. They “rotate” it so that the newest food is in the back and the oldest tins are rotated to the front of the shelf. Prepping is all about organization.

    I love your comment “I like to stand in here cause it makes me happy”. Whenever I get discouraged or sad about something, I stand in my pantry and it makes me happy. 😊 I love how you’re organizing your preps. I use file cabinets for some of my bagged or packaged items. If you ever need a little more storage space, you could add a shelf unit right in the middle of the room on that grey rug. I’d rather suck in my breath and squeeze between shelf units than have to stop prepping cause I ran out of room. I’m in the USA, and I love your accent. Keep up the great work! ❤

    I know I'm late to the game on this video, but I wanted to tell you that it's really nice. I think you've done a great job with a wonderfull, useful assortment of shelves (I especially like the green ones where you keep your "tins" (we call them cans over here, but I like 'tins' better!). Just in the past two weeks my husband, daughter, and I have been consolidating my various "stashes" into one large pantry in our (never-used) guest room. With things the way they are in this world right now, it's a good feeling to be able to look in one room to see what you have an abundance of and what you need to refill. Thank you for sharing your prepper home grocery store! May The Lord Bless you and your family.

    Hi I'm a new subscriber. I came looking for UK pantry ideas. I appreciate this tour. We are using our spare / box room for storage. I'm yet to set up. Thanks for the tips on weight distribution. Also the marker. The measured porridge oats is a great idea. I use a measuring 'cup'. I definitely need to try tinned potatoes to see how I like them. £5 Friday is a great idea! Thanks for the top tips. Jane
