Hi,
Very helpful video. 🙏💙
Question: what items would be okay to leave and store in its original packaging?
For me, I never use any extra salt 🧂so I will need maybe ounces so peppers fear not I will share my sodium chloride supplies
A good practice to do is have one day a week pretende like there's a power failure just get the entire family to live for 24 hours without using any electricity so you get use to a major blackout when it occurs
😊
Salt will be needed x 100 in a true shtf scenario. For bug control, for wounds, for replacing your refrigerator making meats, for replacing all of the Sodium that we will be missing that already are in all our processed foods, dehydration control from us having to do actual hard work outside where we will sweat exponentially more than now, weed control, tons of uses we dont use it for now but that you will absolutely wish you had thought of stocking much much more than :"recommended"
Only coarse salt will cure meat. You need large granules to pull out the fluid. The small salt crystals can’t do it.
Salt is extremely important for so many things, just like you mentioned. 👍
We use lots of salt. Iodized we use on our asparagus patch to reduce weeds
Not just iodized salt! It’s not good for long term food preservation.
But you would need iodized salt, non iodized salt, curing salt, rock salt and others.
I never really hear anyone talking about storing paper/ disposable plates and utensils. In an SHTF situation, one can’t afford to use good drinking water to wash plates and silverware. Right now I think I have about 3000 paper plates and about the same in utensils stored in my garage.
And you can burn the evidence of you having had a meal too.
Absolutely! Washing plates would be a serious waste of precious water. I buy holiday themed paper dishes on sale out of season.
@@hmmm..2733 good idea.
Alaska Granny talks about storing disposable items.
You should check out the water video I linked to at then end of this one. It covers that.
"A big ole honkin' brick" is now my preferred unit of measurement for salt and sugar.
Thanks Rina! Lol
My favorite is a metric sheittonne.
@@diypreppertv Thank you for the constant motivation to keep on prepping! :)
Same! I laughed out loud, scared the goat I was milking 🤣
😂
I don’t know if you knew this, but peroxide actually has another use because those of us that are able to grow food indoors hydrogen peroxide actually helps seeds germinate faster and it’s actually good for your plants adding a lot of extra oxygen directly to the roots
You can have a bit to drink too but not more than a teaspoon at a time and honestly idk what its uses are but they sell food grade h202
Look into Food Grade Hydrogen Peroxide because it also has many different uses.
Peroxide also can be use for cleaning. After you use cut up meat you can use peroxide to sterilize the surface.
It also prevents damping off fungus if you spray a 3% peroxide to a quart of water solution on top of your soil with your seedlings.
I have found that tinned foods last much longer than the expiry date on the tin. When I was a student on a low income years ago, I used to dig out tins that were 5 years past their expiry date from the back of my cupboard to eat. The contents tasted fine, and I did not get ill the next day. Having said that, if the tin is dented or rusty - throw it out.
Exactly. Canned goods are the way to go if you can't afford freeze dried. BB dates are years past the printed dates on most (not all) products. And the variety is fairly good too.
Exp or Best Before = I’ve noticed 99% of things actually don’t have expiration dates, they only show a best before (so it’s just not the best after the best before date). It’s likely going to be a bit more soggy or bland etc.
AND ….. if you have to choose between a possible leeched carcinogen from a can, in a world that is definitely at a carcinogenic level of radioactivity; or dying of starvation in a work that is definitely radioactive;.. I’d chose the *possibly present* carcinogen that may never actually cause me any harm anyways; not eating is definitely going to be harmful a lot faster.
Tins used to not have expiration dates stamped upon them. However, as times progressed, people did not learn the "rules" of canned food plus, it made the grocery stores more profits to have dated cans.
@@jimfreyler2944 exactly; canned goods tick off a few things for me.
1. Water for cooking, is provided in the can; unlike with freeze dried, where you will need extra cooking water stored separately. While canned goods are ready to go, if you wish to add pasta or rice to your meal, you’ll need water;.. so use the water from the canned ingredients 😝
2. Anything that is available, is available in a canned form
3. Rodents are less likely to be a problem for canned goods - but they will chew through bags of dried goods.
@@jimfreyler2944 also; cans can be repurposed later for noisy parameter alerts.
I started prepping for Y2K. I had a 3 yr old and couldn't bear if she suffered. It's a way of life now. I've had 20+ years to make adjustments. We did a year trial run once to figure out what we were lacking and did pretty well. Didn't run out of any essentials, so we just keep our master list basically the same.
And what is your master list?
@@popsplays6270 My master list is about the same as everyone else's (with some exceptions to suit our taste). I'm not going to be bugging out at all, so my list is very long and detailed, and includes much more than just food items. Were you just interested in the food list?
You should share your list since you tested it.
Is it an excel sheet? I'd love a copy please regardless. As I'm sure others would appreciate knowing you've actually tested it. 🙏
@@pambarab5506 I guess I was interested in all of it since I like to get a sense of what others use and try to apply it to myself. Considering others are more knowledgeable than I am right now
I started prepping once I had my baby which was January 2021 so about 2 years. First thing I did was get a years worth of cat food and litter just so I didn’t have to worry about it. Thank goodness I did cause their cat food went up 50%. We have a years worth of rice and beans but beans and rice here and there. Lots of flour in Mylar. Dehydrated vegetables and fruit. Dehydrated eggs too!!! Almost had to bust into the dehydrated eggs because of the egg price just a couple months ago. Really put my mind at ease ❤️❤️
As someone who does. Alot of hiking and has been caught out a few times not being able tok cook for for various reasons, I'd really reccomend stockpiling things that you can cold soak. Oats with a powerder milk and protein powder, Soya chunks, dehydrated veg and couscous, etc good luck everyone x
If your grind your own wheat berries in a grain mill, a six-pack of 1/2 gallon jars, will make 2 loaves of bread (2c of berries per loaf of bread) per week for three months. You would need four 6-packs of 1/2 gallon jars to make bread twice a week to have enough berries for a year of bread. (one loaf say on Sunday; and another loaf on Wednesday) It is very easy to store up enough wheat berries to have enough bread for a year. ;)
I write the date I first use the product : dish soap, cornmeal, all kinds of stuff. Very helpful to help decide how much of something you actually use.
Thanks so much for sharing this great idea! I never recall how long I've used something. Going to start dating things like you suggest. 🍀
Thanks for that great idea!
We bought a freeze dryer. A 33 oz can of freeze dried whole powdered egg went from $49.00 a can to $115.00 per can to $159.99 per can. Freeze drying our own food was the only reasonable decision.
What kind of dryer did y’all go with, about how much was it and do y’all like it
What kind of freeze dryer did you get?
Welllll?? What answer these folks!
We got a freeze dryer over a year ago, and it's been running constantly.👍👍
@@joshhickson7551 I know you weren't asking me,but Harvest Right and we love it
My brother and dad thought I was silly when I picked up one of those 1000 count ibuprofen pill bottles. They both thought it was silly until I had my wisdom teeth out, and my brother broke his foot in the same week haha. Granted we didn't use very many pills, but it's good to have stuff around.
A doctor told me u can take up to 8 pills and it's the same as prescription. Just don't do long term mess up stomache
I stocked up on acetaminophen because I can't take ibuprofen. I don't have 1,000 tablets...probably half that amount. I'll keep adding to my stockpile. You're wise to get the over the counter meds. Diane
@@johndoe-pe9dy Reguler-sized adult - four (200mg) every six hours. I wouldn't do it for more than two days straight at that dosage, though. It will wear your stomach out.
For a more high powered pain reliever, you can combine ibuprofen and acetaminophen. Store both.
Thanks for your advice.
Information is the most useful thing to "stockpile".
We have dozens of " how to" books, agriculture, blacksmithing, leather working, medicine, foraging, health related herbs & spices to name but a few.
Thrift stores for diy books is a must. Going hunting tomorrow.
I thought you were going to get it, but something everyone leaves out is have a good multivitamin, they have a best by date of two years, and it can help make up any gaps in your food preps.
Yes! Also vitamin C tablets!
@@customer5032 ... and Vitamin D. My doc says that's the last thing you want to be deficient in.
My husband and I each took one roll of toilet paper to see how long one roll would last for us individually. Surprisingly, it lasted 10 days so, based on this test, we stock up with enough for a year.
I’m from rural culture. Very informative for those prepping. Farmers were some of the first preppers before it had a definitive name. I really push for having a root cellar/ storm shelter if you have property. It fills the storage gap and extends the life of fresh vegetables. It serves as shelter in times of weather and yes could serve as a bunker. I advise to get the freshest food you can find. Farmers markets are great. Less chemical exposure. More organic. Safe processing is vital. Dehydrating is my niche . Mylar, 5 gallon buckets, O2 absorbers, canning, dry canning, vacuum packing. I advice a herb garden, medicinal garden and herbal tea garden. Wild lettuce, pussyfoot willow, plantain, are foraging plants , and free. Learn to make tictures and salves. Bless you all on your journey to self sufficiency and survival for the future.
One thing not mentioned, you need to store your emergency supplies off sight. If your house catches fire or floods, there goes your emergency stuff. I recommend a steel and stone storage bay.
Chewing gum would be something great to store up too. it helps to keep the mouth moisturize. For some folks take medicine and drink coffee and tea that causes dry mouth. Chewing gum can help folks to relax also. think you can still come up to six months. And I think you can freeze it for about a year. Peppermint candy would be great to store also . Peppermint candy can be used in a lot of different ways.
TicTacs
Nicotine gum is a little addictive but better than chewing tobacco or smoking
Im growing my own peppermint and sugar cane. (Not really)
@@Hema1400 it's good to grow peppermint leaves for 🍵 tea. It would be good to buy or order peppermint seeds and grow them in containers.
@@ritawilliams8754 yep!
Dry beans will not be the same consistency after five years. You will notice how they cook differently and feel different. They are perfectly fine but they will be different. Don’t freak out
It is amazing how much you need. I had to take a few months away from work and hit a bit of stock. Am replenishing it now. For those who think prepping is wrong...WELL, you never know when you may have a health issue and may need something because it is too difficult to get out and get it or you may not have enough income to get anything.
For reasons, I had zero cash flow for about two months. Food-wise, I barely noticed.
Thank you JR. for your informational series, usually most retired or fixed income people can only stock pile a few cans of food each grocery run. Freeze dried food is ideal, when you can afford it. You point out all areas of preparing stock piles. I enjoy your series .
Around 15 years ago I started developing this almost obsessive desire to know about the Geo political happenings going on in the world. Back then, although I knew these things were going to happen, they were considered conspiracy theories. But now these things are happening at an alarming pace. It’s important for us to be preparing but the most important way to prepare is to make sure you are right with God. Luke 21 verse 36 says be always on the watch and pray that you may be able to escape all that’s about to happen and that you may be able to stand before the son of man. Also start doing your own homework. This is not a day that you can just blindly go through life. First Thessalonians five says but you brothers, are not in darkness so that that day should surprise you like a thief. So then let us not be like others who are asleep, but let us be alert! I have listened to so many plans on preparing for what’s coming but truly, real security can only be found in your relationship with Jesus Christ. Please hurry!
AMEN 🙏💯
Amen ❤
A big honkin’ brick. 😂 Love it. Great chat. Solid ideas.
Thank you Robin!
Ginger,turmeric and lemon are great for fighting colds and stomach issues
If you stock pile food, water and fuel, then it's equally important that you plan on how to defend you, your family and it's resources. The Government is not only planning our demise, it's also trying to make it impossible for you to prepare by making you a Criminal. So, stay quiet about it, don't show pictures and make it easy for them to take it.
Perfectly well written and said thank you
😢 Canadian Government does not let its citizens defend themselves.
I needed this because I'm basically buying the same food items monthly.😁
Yeah, I am guilty of falling into the “just pick up more beans and rice” trap. Lol
There is nothing wrong with that, please don't call it a trap. Buying the food you already like is the point, we don't want to have a variety of things only to find out we really prefer the same old.
@Debbie Drake Awesome. I need to try that this month.
One local grocery store used to have "case lot" sales. I got a lot of canned goods, pasta, even brownie mix at reasonable prices but I haven't seen them doing it since the 'rona started. Last trip there I bought a couple bags of flour, that's all that was left, and then watched a feeding frenzy when they brought out a pallet of TP. 🤣
I have stored up varieties of foods especially healthy foods Seeds 🍵 got to get more potting soil for growing plants in containers. I just store maybe a limited supply of 🍭🍬 candy 🤣🍭🤗 like chewing gum lollipops 🤗 also plan on growing peppermint tea plants and other tea plants. Lots of soaps toothpaste. Lots of cornbread mixes Bisquick that already have baking powder in it powders that you don't have to add eggs or baking powder or soda powder. Miracles or mayonnaise can be used as a alternative a backup for eggs if you don't have eggs to put in your cornbread mix. So I store up on miracle whip and mayonnaise. I don't store up on lots flour when I can use Bisquick pancakes mixed and jiffy mixes 🤗😊
Love the level headed approach you give to prepping. Thanks
Thank you Charles!
Been prepping seriously since 2015. Bit by bit...Drip, drip, drip adds up fairly fast. Do Not over do it or you could burn out. Focus even when things get scary and you can do well for yourself. Think broad spectrum, diversify your gear.
Thanks for keeping us on our toes, JR. I hope it doesn't get as bad as I think it might, but your information certainly helps everyone who watches. As part of my preps, I just received a small walk-in greenhouse to help with "vegetable independence" this year and for years to come! Best wishes to you!
I need to start on my garden soon. Thanks for watching and commenting Karl!
@@diypreppertv There's still a lot of snow on the ground here in Ontario, and we're expecting a big snowstorm tomorrow night, but I'm sitting here planning my veggie garden! Good luck with yours!
stock piling comes down to a system and a rotation plan.
Bar soap. Doesn't go bad and if you have some water, works well with friction to kill bacteria.
Great common sense video, JR. Thank you for all you do in helping us get to where we need to be.
Vinegar! Pickle veggies and egss, can use to clean, can use for food, and I don't think it actually expires. Plus if you get apple cider with the mother you have great health benefits too!
I've been using my preps so I can buy new ones. I found a bag of canned cat food under my bags of dried beans.
Certain things go faster than others. I have too many boxes of pasta, cans of corn and peas. Canned meats, soups, tomatoes, mushrooms, and sauces go fast.
it has been good to taste and stop purchasing what I do not like.
People should track how much food and WHAT TYPES of foods they consume every month especially in 4 season states because in cold weather your diets change from warmer weather . This will help you get better idea of what to stockpile
Water, water, and more water.
HELLO JR THANKS FOR YOUR TIME AND EFFORT AND ENERGY IN MAKING THIS VIDEO GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY STAY SAFE AND WARM AND WELL AND WELL PREPARED FROM OREGON
Ive used ryobi power tools up until my recent retirement. Since then ive bought the compatible battery driven appliances that suit camping with the grandkids. They now make a very wide range of gear from lights to fans to bug zappers and inverters etc, all using the same battery packs as the tools. If you set up 2x solar panels dedicated to charging the batteries only, this could last a decade.
You always have good, informative videos. Well done, JR.
Thank you Sharon!
Great Info...keep em coming...this was easy to understand info...thank you.
You're welcome Julio! Thanks for watching and commenting!
Thankyou for your channel JR Very helpful 👍 Stay Safe 🖖 💛
Thank you Jodi!
I often think about the time window for supplies, but a genuine EOTWAWKIt event isn't really survivable where I am. But Winter storms and Coastal Storms are a real consideration. After Superstorm Sandy some neighborhoods near me were on generators for 6 weeks until normal power was restored. And a surprise Winter Nor'easter can take a week or more to dig out from once a decade or so. Even a heavy snow can set the local s'markets back for a week or two...and gas stations for a week.
Thanks for another great video JR🏆. I love your channel. God bless you and yours my brother 🙏🏽
Thank you Sam!
Once again another terrific list for motivation to check preps and to check, again. Thanks, JR. Stay safe. Watch that weather down your way, Friend.
Thank you! We made it through last night's storm.
@@diypreppertv…Happy to see.
Thanks for making the point about rotating out the flour - I hadn't thought about it like that before
I am working toward having 100 pounds of salt and sugar on hand. They are both great for preserving food. After shtf bread will be a staple of your diet. Flour will be essential. Same with baking soda and cream of tartar.
Cream of tartar
?
@@feoxorus in MO salt/mineral blocks are not considered bait. Corn or feed is bait though, there are rules relating to how long food has to be removed from a site to not be considered baited. SHTF though, a hungry person cares not about seasons or limits... more like seasonings and full bellies.
Salt is also used as a cleaning agent. It makes a good scrub for cast iron, was historically used to clean wooden surfaces, (before sunning the item).
Great ideas for HOW MUCH to store! Thanks!
I didn't know about the Wallaby site's calculator. Kind of generic but it's a good starting point when you have no idea about the quantities needed for a period of time.
Thank you Sherry!
thanks for all the great tips
You’re welcome! Thanks for watching!
We stock water filters for our Berkey and catch rain water for daily use. Quality garden seeds are priceless also. As for cleaning products store and learn to make vinegar. Good video, thanks
Thank you. great summary.
Thanks for sharing JR. These are definitely important resources that I need to re-examine in my preps. Stay safe and stay prepared. Cheers from Alberta!
Thank you!
Actually through my research white flour stored in Mylar bags have a shelf life of between 10 - 15 years. Maybe if you just store them in the package they came it it would be 5 years, but, if it is stored properly. Than you for the information. I found this very helpful. I'll add that I started buying the bleach tablets and I love them. I'm saving money even now using them. They take way less room in my storage. The downside is you have to mix them with water.
Great video. I need to get busy stocking up.... Howdy from Texas 🤠
Great video as always JR.
Thank you!
Very helpful. Thank you.
You're welcome! Thanks for watching!
Your best vid yet. Congrats!
Thank you!
People need to remember with all this great information, to modify for their own health, like T2 diabetes and other issues
I love freeze dried food. It last long and all you need is hot water. If you get mountain house, they also taste good considering what it is.
Watch the calories on the label. You can fill up but most will have you losing weight fast. On average, adults need 2,000 calories per day if sedentary. Extreme cold and hard work can easily boost that to 3,500-5,000!
@@feoxorus agree that calories on most are lacking. As an overweight American I can afford the calorie deficit.
@@kiddlesnmore2 really????
I had not heard that! Everything I read says no storage in the garage or the attic. It surely would be helpful to use these two sites for food storage!!!
Where did you get THIS information?? Any link to share???
have stored gas for 5 years and it still work just fine it's stored in Black plastic 55-gallon in a dark area that is well-ventilated twice the amount of suggestions stable in twice the amount suggested of key in the yellow one bottle for every 10 and then I also add 32 oz of water with one full bottle of red or purple food coloring this will help you and preventing you from putting water in your gas tank because when you hit the water it will be a different color then aged gas and then if you are worried about the loss of octane in the gas store a few extra bottles of octane booster and that will boost your octane
That seems like a lot for 1 person but I guess for 1 year it makes sense. I stored up a 2gal bucket of lima beans today. They were acually way more expensive than pinto beans.
Yes they are sadly. And I like them much better than pintos. Also stocking 15 bean mix, split peas, and lentils
Canned Lima beans are about 50 cents more expensive than same sized green beans etc. I found a bag of dried baby lima beans, there were only a couple of bags there. I only bought 1 bag. Tomorrow, I'll go buy another. A friend in Canada couldn't find any Lima beans. They come from Peru I think. I have lima bean seeds, nothing to lose to try growing them.
@Dee S yep....I actually used a bag of lentils as a filler lol. I like that 15 bean mix also
@gail O'Reilly yeah 1 bag at a time will do the job. And yes it doesn't hurt to grow some.
I store black beans, split peas, and lentils, the Great Value brand at Walmart is inexpensive. I also grow "blackeyed pea" beans which do well in the Southwest heat.
Great advice! Thank you!!
You’re welcome David! Thanks for watching!
Good advice and I like the way your videos are quick and to the point. You give a continuous talk on information. You are like the. energizer bunny. LOL …..
I own a bakery. I'm always ready to have a full belly. I keep stock up and back-up systems
Excellent video! I have oil of oregano as an antibiotics and alpha lipoic acid for pain. Alpha lipoic acid works better than most pain meds and it’s healing in many ways as well. I can’t walk well without taking it.
Good info, THX!
Thanks for watching!
thanks for the great info.
You're welcome! Thanks for watching!
The Ritz crackers I've had them for 3 years and I vacuum sealed them and they still taste good
I made sure to include two small gauge graters for sugar or salt. Thinking in case I have some clumping. Thanks for what you do.
God Bless all. Thank you for your great video. Store extra medical supplies. Take a couple first aide courses. You can trade medical skills. I hope you opened some eyes.
Thank you Joe!
Thank u
If your preserving food you need alot of Salt & Sugar along with other things.
Hydrogen peroxide mix with baking soda and a little dish soap will get rid of skunk spray and it work have treated my dog twice was raised to use tomato juice but this works so much better God bless
Tried and true!
You can also brush your teeth with a paste made of the same ingredients. A dash of baking soda and a few drops of hydrogen peroxide. I guess you can brush your dog's teeth with it too but I doubt he'll thank you. But on your teeth you'll have the shiniest pearly whites in the apocalypse.
I make my own Stain Remover with baking soda, hyd. peroxide and dish soap (personally prefer Dawn) It works great. I used an empty dish soap bottle to make the mix.
I freeze raw & cooked eggs for future use. Also cheese, milk, etc
You can freeze eggs also. Just crack the eggs put each yolk in each cup in a rubber cup cake pan and freeze it then take it out of freezer and put it in a freezer storage bag then put it back in the freezer. For better instructions you can find it on UA-cam how to freeze eggs. Also miracle whip and mayonnaise can be used for a back in cornbread mixes if you don't have eggs or enough of eggs. Not sure if you can use it as a backup alternative for biscuit mixes pancakes mixes. For years some folks have use mayonnaise and miracle whip. Hellman's, Mayo, Blue Plate . Fat free low in fats. Use real mayonnaise. For better instructions Google it and go UA-cam. I do a little stocking up on mayonnaise and miracle whip. 🤗
yes! frooze 6 doz. eggs last yr. when they were 99cents a doz. we also freeze fresh milk and cheese. prep on
Ouch! I guess im way behind on salt! I just added it to the list. I also need to order more o2 absorbers. My list never seems to end.
We r taping the maple trees fur syrup. It's always good to have and it's great fur bartering or gufts
We already did the maple syrup. Also g t vanilla bean from m health store or Amazon and a med grade bottle of vodka out in bottles turn the bottles ones a week leave in a cool dry place
U will have beautiful natural vanilla fur baking and makes great gifts. I also make homemade fruit roll ups the kids live them no.sugar added all.natural
I can or bottle a lot of the fruit and vegetables that I grow, so I have a lot more sugar and salt stored than average so that I can keep doing it.
Thanks for the video
Thanks for watching Paul!
Just remember that certain medications, such as aspirin, will become toxic after the expiration date. I have made a list of these types of medications for my prepping notebook. I don't even keep aspirin in the counter anymore because one family member is allergic, the rest of us rarely use it, and if we really need it, I can just make it out of Willow bark.
Make your flour into hard tack and store it for 20+ years
Just grind the hard tack back to flour when you need it.
Sounds interesting.
How to do?
You will need more of everything if you survive the initial blast
In the dark ages, when I was in school or just beyond, I read a newspaper (remember those?) report about a stash of canned food from the civil war era that had been found hidden in a cave or somewhere.
Experts tested the food and said it was uncontaminated and technically safe to eat. ( I doubt it would have been very tasty!)
I figure if canning techniques from the 1860's were good enough to keep food for over 100 years, our current processes should last even longer!
They use aluminium now and its thinner material. And... those ringpulls, I don't trust them. I've already had ringpull tins taste yuk and I date still
You can freeze some of the items and extend the shelf life.
Great channel. Just subbed.
We have canned food storage and im convinced its so stale now it would not be eddable. Thies storages were bought 30 years ago.
I wish You Tube would allow content providers like you to provide a list that we could download and print. Awesome information but I have to write it all down just in case we lose our ability to have the internet along with other communication avenues. Thank you!
You’re welcome Margo. I’m working on an idea that will allow me to do that.
@@diypreppertv That is awesome!.
I agree, that would be very useful!👍
Kris of City Prepping has a downloadable list of food quantities needed, as well as many other free downloadable charts, spreadsheets, & lists. He is also level-headed & calm like DIY Prepper. These two guys are great! I can't handle the doom masters like Canadian Prepper! Too much Drama!
@@patriciatinkey2677 Thanks for Sharing this info.
Great information I just looked up the wallaby food calculator I’m a little short I think I got a little bit more work to do lol
My son can't eat wheat, so i have various grains to make him bread. You can make a type of gluten free "flour" with white rice, sorghum grain, millet, and oats (together or in differing combos). They all store for years in whole grain form :).
You can pop sorghum too. 😊
@@ngipon123 ohhhh, I don't know this, but I am going to try!
Do you have a good bread recipe? My on can't have gluten either and gf bread prices are crazy!
What I did with a diaper wipes and their cleaners put them in the freezer that way when you vacuum the moisture don't get in
Thanks J R! God Bless you and your family 🙏🏼
Thank you!
Should remember you should can stuff. Fruits and vegetables from your garden or farmers market. They will keep 7 to 10 years. Some things will keep longer. This is a good way to get fresh Or fairly fresh
Pink Himalayan salt is the way to go to get lots of minerals. Since I started eating it like 8 yrs ago i have never had a cold or flu
The flower will keep for a while I've had it for over five years but I stuck mine in a very cold cold place to kill everything in it
Lovage is also a natural antibiotic that can be grown in your own yard. It's an herb that looks and taste like celery
I’m Asian . I got 350 lbs stacked up. Shtf would be a very sad shft without rice. 😢
It's best to learn to cook from scratch. This will allow you to store only base items that will make many different meals. I stock stewed tomatoes, so I can make spaghetti sauce, pizza sauce, salsa, tomato soup, and many others meals. I make my own pasta that actually tastes much better than dried pasta, and requires much less energy to cook.
Nice... Is there a Gluten Free recipe for making pasta? I haven't looked, but I bet there are some good ones. Any EASY recipes to share here??
Propane is also cheaper to run. You might spend more buying a canister but it requires less propane to create the energy.
A quick and easy way to increase your protein intake is protein powder. Mix with water, shake and drink it. It doesn't have a long (two years or so) shelf life. But, I use it on a regular basis. So. it's naturally rotated. Protein bars (also) make a great snack.
Thumbs Up ! Wishing you a great weekend also.
a freeze dryer is 3k+/-. I bought one and it's well worth the $.
I even Freeze Dry some canned foods. They will last even longer in this manner!
They include cut green beans, canned sliced potatoes, #10 can of corn ( btw, a #10 can is just the right size for the 4 trays on my mid size HarvestRight freeze dryer. ) The food quickly rehydrates.
