Remember that fuel shortage that was supposedly coming? Remember the grocery store shortages cause of the supply chain issues?
My point is... we've heard about all this impending doom for a while now. If it happens, I've been prepared for the worst for a while now. Bring it on or not. At this point, things happen or they don't.
Yup! And I’m still cooking food at trump prices so can’t complain
Ditto
Railway issues?
Maybe Buffet is going to buy union pacific
Norfolk southern up. Union pacific down
Rail wars

Considering how that term (second harvest) is related to elephants...horrible name for a food bank.
Appreciate the info, altho I expect it sooner at this rate
Not aware of that term re: elephants ...but I'm about to be!
Edit: used 3 search engines including the Goog and I got nuthin' on elephants and 2nd harvest
Elephants have poor digestion so there are lots of nuts and things in their feces, so some tribes in rough times will go through the feces and eat the nuts.
This poor digestion of nuts and beans has created what I have read are the finest coffee beans on earth where elephants are fed a bunch of coffee beans on a mostly empty stomach, then crap out the beans. A cup of this coffee can go for over a hundred dollars.
Shits insane!!
isn't it a cat that does that?
Yes, civet
yes, catturd!
Ahhh. I understand now.
Interesting. I've seen many shows discuss it. In terms of elephants, Second Harvest is the act of eating dung from other elephants, to catch what the last didn't process.
Like dogs eating cat crap due to it's high protein content.
I've found edible, if necessary, berries in bear scat before. Thank goodness for peanut butter crackers and beef jerky!
Yup, same.
have you seen how fucking fat the average welfare recipient is?!
Nutritionally poor though. All they have is fat stores, but aren't getting the proteins, vitamins, minerals, and essential components of the diet. You could drink Coke every day and still end up with scurvy while being fat as a cow.
The only reason the modern poor person looks fat is high fructose corn syrup. Because it is so cheap, it's in all of the processed foods. If you go to a food bank or utilize SNAP benefits to shop at convenience stores like many people do, all you end up buying is high fructose corn syrup. Tastes good, makes you fat, but it's nutritionally void. There's a reason we call it junk food.
Seed oils...all prepared food..ready meals use seed oils...they cause diabetes heart and cancers. The body can't process it and lays it down as fat...also fluoride from the scrubbers of the aluminium phosphate industries..neurotoxin in food and drink..causes cancer quicker than any other chemical ...how do you think people can get any goodness even if they eat some good food.. digestive system and immune system shot to hell.
That's before you consider the vaxx which destroys the P53 tumour suppressor gene
One of the first things to awaken to, is that all we take for granted regarding availability of food, energy, supplies of any sort, is not in our control. At any point we could lose them. Always make sure you are stocked up and ready for a "disaster". It is not always a hurricane. Several glitches and disruptions in the supply chain, off the charts inflation, can seriously affect your life.Most people walk around in a dream, thinking all that they need will be right there. Make sure there is enough in your larder , prepping is not a radical or fringe notion, its a responsibility to yourself and your dependents. Stock up!!!!!!
Is this because there will be price adjustments starting in January of 2023 along with supply chain issues?
Really didn't expound on the topic due to the ears around us
I also heard that Biden cut off our import from the world's largest Sugar producing country. That means the price of sugar will be ENORMOUS if you can find any. Pass the word,
Now that's a 100% GOOD thing!
So in other words he is paying back the fanjul brothers. Every war ever has its roots in sugar. Always be weary when a politician or president has his sights on sugar
All I know is the news said that China would be taking what we were getting. How ironic. As if we didn't know that wasn't going to happen.
Idk, I just grabbed chicken breast for $1.10/lb - fresh boneless skinless. Saw NY strips for $6.99/lb. Things are coming down dramatically in my neck of the woods.
area of the country without doxx?
I just saw the same in SE Michigan yesterday. Finally bought a spiral ham at a reasonable price. They were running 50-70 bucks. 23 for the same weight as last year.
I shop at a mid-size independent and do not give kroger or walmart money.
blue state.
I shop Walmart, Sams Club primarily. Say what you want but anyhow, this was at a midsize independent local “wholesale” store.
Good to hear. Godspeed.
lol i doubt that. if theres one thing the U.S. wont run out of, its pharmaceuticals
It's true. See link to ASHP's Drug Shortage Database
sounds like more fear porn. THE SKY IS FALLING!!!! then fucking let it fall already
Thanks, Frankie. We've been getting prepared for a while. Happy we did because prices are already crazy. Start farming ( an aquaponics system can be set up pretty easily in most places), buy fishing equipment - you can find it cheap on craigslist or even free by bartering.
Guaranteed to if everyone rushes out and buys extra now it will go up. Things I quit buying are dropping 30 percent
