[quote:Saint Lance the Odd from BC:MV8zOTYyNTk1Xzg2OTMxMjM3X0E2NTA5M0Qx] [quote:Windsage:MV8zOTYyNTk1Xzg2OTMxMDEzXzkwOEZFMTI0] [quote:Anonymous Coward 78295595:MV8zOTYyNTk1Xzg2OTI2MzU1X0JGNzEyRTQ1] More evidence the system is breaking down...the ORGANIC section in my grocery store is gone. They have scattered the organic items in with the regular items...there were so few organic items it would have looked pathetic. The organic juice was now mixed in with the Hi-C and the V-8. They had no organic cranberry juice...2 black-sherry (I took them both)...and about 8 blueberry (I took 2). I doubt we will see any more. I also noticed a can of "[b]Super Greens[/b]" nutrition powder was half the size at the same price. Many MANY items out of stock or low. - MC [/quote] My local Super1 market in north Idaho was almost completely out of canned cat food. I asked the assistant manager who was checking my groceries what happened to all the cat food. He said they were having trouble getting the re-order in, and he added that there were many things that they weren't able to stock. The suppliers just don't have it. Now if you think about it, [b]there is no obvious reason for this,[/b] as covid is not as big a deal anymore. Quarantines have been lifted, trucks are rolling, spring is in the air. But the shelves are starting to be empty AGAIN. So anybody who is not stocking up on essentials is going to be sorry in a couple of months. [/quote] No reason? Something Shakespeare never said was 'you've got to be kidding'! The Evergreen jamming and delaying shipping was a VERY bid deal. When you look at a product, lets say canned cat food, where do the components come from? The metal for the can may be mined up State, but it is then shipped to ????? for processing and conversion into the simple can. That can may then be shipped somewhere else to be filled and sealed. Then shipped back to wherever the company that 'makes it' is located to be labeled. It then goes out to the wholesalers who ship it to the POS companies. ONE 'glitch', like the butterfly wing causing a wind storm in SIberia, and it all breaks down fairly rapidly. 'Made in the USA', or for me 'Canada' may just be stating where the label was printed. Edit 'forgot the alternative duh'! https://pets.webmd.com/cats/guide/homemade-cat-food-and-raw-cat-food#1 [/quote]

Continuation of another thread of wonderful people with the best ever ideas for practical prepping even for those with little money.
We discuss power outages including CME and EMP, heating and cooking methods, first aid, foods; we run disaster scenarios to see if we know what to do.
This is probably the only prepping thread a person would need, whether long-time prepper here to share, or newbie prepper here to learn and everyone in between.
