Economic Collapse Preparation: Food Storage in General

It is important to store food for the economic collapse for many reasons. Although I put a much higher emphasis on growing your own food and hunting, food storage is certainly important. Be sure to decide if you are going to share your food storage cache, and that you have a means of defending your cache(s). Be sure to get a pellet gun to supplement your food storage.

That big can of Stagg Chile Con Carne looks like it can be something to throw at your neighbors when they come for your food.

@Clowerdean In such a world, those things you dismissed as "holding no nutritional value" will be the most important food items you'll ever want to find in your plate. Simple protein and fats will get you through the most hardened of times. I've lived it. I know what it means to starve. The notion of complex (or even simple) carbs as staple foods will reign perpetual to the point of Kwashiorkor. Protein and animal fat is essential.

When the SHTF, the first food items to become scarce will be those rich in protein. Primarily meats, the larger the game, the more scarce. Beef first, pork, then all the way down to chicken. Fish will come later, and, ultimately, legumes (beans). I believe very strongly that if the SHTF, it would be more akin to a third world country scenario. No need for fantastic Zombie scenarios or apocalyptic WWIII to get a real sense of what has already happened in other countries...

Prevention is the best solution. It has been since the beginning of time. Sow today to reap tomorrow. The best for a crisis situation is to live where he could grow and produce food to survive. But it should be today, because the production of food takes time. Food store does not work. Spoil after a few days, because they are made for immediate consumption, are not made to store ..

@mocatz187 It has nothing to do with a collapse. I'm just talking about the practical aspects of owning an air rifle alongside real firearms. As far as eating rats, is that safe??

[WisdomIsPrecious]

@mocatz187 What about a collapse scenario makes it certain that you will have rats? I'm just seeking clarification on what you mean. Is it the quantities of stored food and if so how is that different from our current kitchen situations in terms of attracting rats? Also why would you poison a rat when you could eat it with a physical trap

[mocatz187]

If you have land with animals you WILL have rats and an air rifle is safe to use close to your animals and it won't spook them. It must be complimented with rat poisoning and a few cats. But I have found that the majority of cats are not hunters.

It really doesn't matter what your dried milk tates like, it probably won't be noticeable when you cook with it and you will need it for cooking.
