Awareness is key, waking up the world and saying no is necessary so I'm condoning the convoy. Im just a little worried about our friends up there, Canadians know how to live rough so probably not as bad as if it was new york. If anything this should be a signal to double check your stock. Stay safe my frens.

I've always thought of it as food-insurance. We insure our cars, our homes, etc, and hope we never have to use it. So I'd rather overspend on food and not have to depend on it than not have it in my arsenal. Also, if you buy today, you save on inflating prices and the lowering of the value of the dollar. The corn I bought years ago for 33 cents a can is now what, well over a dollar a can?
I've made some mistakes. Like buying tomato-product in a can and having them burst and leak in my pantry. Lesson: buy acid items in glass jars. Things like choosing foods that don't go rancid: oats, white rice, coconut oil vs. items that do go rancid: peanut butter (so have some but don't go crazy), nuts (freeze if possible), and brown rice. But I'd rather have to throw some food out that was stored too long and went bad then to ever be in the position where we could have used it, but didn't have it.
Ooh good tips. I have tomato products in my secret storage space. I need to do something about that.
My family lives white rice and I have several huge bags of it. That will serve us well and should keep well. I have some oats and coconut oil. Maybe should get a bit more of the oil.
Never thought of freezing nuts Either. Good tip! Thank you for all the great input!!
