With today today? That doesn’t make any sense I think we’ve got a class A syntax error right there.

You can get food with ammo. With food and no ammo, you can forget about keeping the food.

Buy a bicycle. You want a hard-tailed mountain bicycle (that's the one with the moderately fat tires -- not the really fat tires, but tires that are slightly fatter than the average bicycle). "Hard-tail" means it has no suspension in the back. Start riding it every day for at least an hour. In a few months you will have put yourself into shape, and you will possess a mode of transportation that can carry you and a hundred pounds of freight over any terrain known to man. And the best part is, it runs on canned beans. When the crazy time comes, and the gas stations no longer get deliveries of gasoline, you will understand how smart you were to get a bicycle.

Any terrain is a big stretch. If you're going to be doing offroad/offtrail at all, consider the fat tires. I'm currently running the fattest tires I've ever run on my xc bike. Even unencumbered you're not making any type of progress through sand or snow, even on 2.5s. You can air up the fat tires if you want to ride on trails or roads, and you can air down to almost flat especially with runflat inserts.

That being said, if you're in the hills, sand, snow etc you're probably better off to just walk the bike. Even on moderate terrain with 100 pounds you're much more likely to break and wear parts, wipe out, or just exhaust yourself trying to ride up hills.

I don't own a fat tire bike, I just don't find them as fun and I walk my bike when I run into deep soft sand, but they would be what I recommend for a bug out bike.

In the right environment ammo is food, in the wrong environment food wont save you.

Ammo. Then you TAKE the food when needed.

I was thinking that ammo can aid in food attainment in various ways.

Turned into kinda a rant: Tl;dr Buy sufficient ammo if you have none, or less than sufficient, otherwise buy food.

If you already have enough ammo, then buy food (if those are your only two choices). Ammo has been steadily going up, and unless we have a boogaloo, or biden really clamps down on guns (even among dems this is difficult) the price right now is fucking ridiculous. I broke down 2 months ago to buy just enough to plink when 556 was 70c/round. Now it's up to a dollar because of fear from biden. But the more people are ok buying at this price, the more ammo companies will be comfortable selling at this price.

They've given us the same song and dance, full capacity yada-yada. We've had an ammo shortage for a fucking YEAR. If someone set up an additional ammo plant they'd make bank, but the big companies aren't playing ball. That involves risk (not much risk, mind you, as there are millions of people like me with a huge demand at a lower price point. If ammo ever gets to decent prices again, I'm buying 100k rounds and never have to worry about not being able to go plinking again.

I stocked up on toilet paper a couple years ago. I'm not sure why, really. I saw it was on sale for half price so I bought 6 of those 72 packs of the triple size rolls. They lasted me about 3 years. I was laughing when those toilet paper shortages came.

I don't see much point in stocking up where I currently live. I'll have to abandon this location pretty fast with whatever I and my car can carry. I need to get some land outside the city.

Yikes. You know, people shit on living in the suburbs, but I know all of my neighbors, most of them are White, except for one Asian family that's cool as shit (we bbq together and bitch about the nog). If Shit really did HTF, I have enough land to till for food, and an 8 foot privacy fence, Vantage points from the roof, I think we'd do ok. Anyway, unless you're waaaay out in the sticks, I'd rather have a community. 1 tiny family alone on a farm with no help for miles sounds like an easy target.

You might, then, want to invest more in a bug out vehicle if you're in a city (particular a blue city)
