Just a suggestion for you people to consider.

I've been buying cans of soup for five years now. Basically about $1 a can.

I buy 100 pound bags of rice and beans.

To suppliment the soup.

Gravity water filter.

A TV dish . (Dish network, Direct TV etc )

I use window tint ( MIrror ) to line it.

Cast Iron Dutch Oven.

So here is the dope :

1 can of soup and 1 pound of rice feeds a family of four for one day. HOW ?

gravity feed the rain water into the dutch oven

half gallon in the oven hanging on the 'arm' of the dish above the mirrored portion collecting and focusing the sun on it.

Boils in a few minutes.

add rice or beans

remove and add soup.

Done.

3 months of food (soup)in a single container and 100lb pound bag of rice or beans.

Cheep and delicious.

I farm now, but I don't grow rice ;-)

have you thought about going back to some of the older methods of preserving food, people dont really do pickling or fermenting them selves anymore but it improves your diet, improves your average meal, and improves your health too if you do lacto fermenting

if you have the space you could even cure your own meat and if shit hits the fan and you are stuck eating rice, beans, and soup you will be glad you did lol

and if you dont make your own wine or cider that might one to look in too

Absolutely, I can food, brew beer and grow weed. Kimchi and on and on. Living on your own is the way! Turn back the clock, learn from the past. Your right on TARGET !

plus , the big food companies are trying to kill us. I'll give you a prime example. One of the first things China does with waste is ask themselves, "can we repurpose this for sale in the USA ?" and they do, it winds up in our food and the designer drugs in 7/11.
