Found your publications on amazon. Just bought one.

Sprouting is a good suggestion. Thanks Richard. Quick search showed sprouting seeds have a pretty good shelf life. Will be good to have fresh greens if we have the conditions to grow them. Only downside, as Richard already mentioned, is having the water to do so. Gonna look for some...

Have a several 50 gal plastic drums and one steel in storage. Using one to store water now. Will cut up a couple for plants in the near future. Haven't decided on the steel yet; originally planned to make a smoker but may use it to store fuel. I used to have 80, 5 gallon buckets on the...

Naw man, not going to eat bugs like Emmy, long as I have the choice. I think the food companies will process the insects into meal or flour of some sort. Think Doritos, which are made up of ground up stuff and highly seasoned. We have nothing to worry about, hehe. Liking Emmy a lot; she...

Had to look it up on wikipedia. What have you cooked and how does it taste? I see on wikipedia it can be made into kim chi. Would be interesting to try. I can buy daikon or won bok kim chi at our local markets. Never seen walking onions.

Read somewhere that the great reset has insects on the menu. Be ironic if that causes more methane like beans. Do have a hand crank and hard wheat berries but we haven't tried to make bread yet. The cranking part will be my job, anyway. I can make stuff from flour/water that will work in a...

Commercial size for home made will be healthier (control sugar use) and looks like you're going that way. Hope you still experiment with natural soda though, imho stocking wine yeast and campden tablets is cheaper than buying C02. Post pics when you get things sorted out!

Yup, my son has a unit that uses 12 gram beverage grade cartridges and its expensive; not for me. He likes it though. Have you tried wine yeast? My first batch was with what I had; bread yeast. Results had a smell to it but still palatable. Is for the "hard times" anyway right...

Have you considered using fermentation to carbonate your fav fruit drinks to make natural soda? Can find ebooks (library and free) or from watching you tube videos. My first batch of "homestead wine" was from tangerines from my yard about to get thrown away which turned out ok. Used plastic...

Got the case of assorted Yoders today. On opening the beef chunks can, there was a slight canned corned beef smell but not unpleasant. Ate a spoonful. Tasted bland and texture is like canned tuna. Made sandwich spread with mayo and soy sauce. Was too bland for me so added siracha (hot) mayo...

Think I'd go with kibble if I didn't think food was going to expensive and hard to come by in the near future. One less item to buy. Wife will set aside some of the main dish for the dog; enough to last for 2-3 days in the fridge. For example, dog will get some of the stir fry without the...

Have a dog also; don't usually cook with garlic and onions so the three of us can eat the same food:). Our kids are grown up and living on their own.

From my better half: Mild S&B curry https://smile.amazon.com/Golden-Curry-Sauce-Mild-8-4-Ounce/dp/B01HHIIGXU/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=curry+japanese&qid=1620108182&sr=8-1 Medium...

Just ordered a case of assorted meats (chicken, pork, beef, sausage, etc). First thing is to try with soy sauce, mayo and make a sandwich; gamey smell or not, lol. When the hard times come I'm kind of okay with eating awful tasting foods. Don't like mountain house freeze dried and stuff...

LOL, no don't feed it to the dog. It's $197 bucks a case (amazon prime); good for emergencies but pricey otherwise. Would suggest your fav stew recipe if the meat smells good. If not then a beef curry recipe. Curry is the only way I can handle wild billy goat meat; really stink/gamey...

Sorry, and this is going backwards but how does the beef taste/smell? Bland? I'm interested in trying a case.

Please look at Sheila Jackson Lee's Bill HR 127 every firearm in national database, hundreds of dollars tax for a license, restrictions on semi autos. This is what the left is doing.

I've already had my fun back in the day. Today, primers are dear in my locale. You might look at X ring rubber bullets and speer plastic bullets. For rifle you might want to try gluelits. It's hot glue injected into a bullet mold. The castboolit forum has a long thread on making gluelits...

Back in the day I have used .45 cal rubber bullets (X Ring) which are still available and wax bullets outdoors in a 45 LC colt clone, 1911 and 45 LC lever. It's fun, true. But I don't have primers to spare as they are hard to find and more expensive. Also, unless primers are the lead free...

I don't think there are expiration dates on reloading components or ammo so it'll come down to whatever you're comfortable with. I've read that powder will get "stronger" as it gets older also. Firefighter friend told me that deteriorated powder can spontaneously combust. I'll take a good...
