Experts Issue a Warning as Food Prices Shoot Up
Just wondering what kind of plan everyone has to avoid feeling the effects of this.

Some people might be stock piling a whole bunch of food but all food have an expiration date. These are scary times that we are in and its gonna get worse. I might buy some dry foods and pack them in some mylar bags or something. I have not really thought about what I would do but I believe that we will see prices soar in the next couple of months or so
Probably right. Stock piling and saving food is a great idea. But it eventually runs out. If we ever got to a point where we couldn't recover most of us would have to resort to farming and local markets. Good time to learn to garden I think.
haha gardening is funny and I am terrible at it, they have these cool seeds where you can reuse them but I am unsure how many times you can reuse them. I hope its not in our life time that we will see food being almost nonexistent. I think that I have been watching too many post apocalyptic movies lol
Food prices are going up because people are stock piling. Simple supply and demand.
Stock piling for the sake of saving money won't help you if after everyone is done stock piling and the prices come back down.
This is not to say not to stock pile for disaster or collapsed economy just saying why prices are going up.
but you never know there may come a day when it takes a days wages to buy a loaf of bread
TPTB would prefer you starve, but yes, growing your own food is really the way to go. Keep in mind that any 'exposed' garden will be raided.
Yes but the those raiding it are edible.
Storing enough food for a year really isn't a big deal nor is it very expensive. Water also of course. Many people don't do it not because they cannot afford to,
well not really a issue for us in the north western part of the northwest, lots of water although i am sure the rivers will be polluted worst than they are because the sanitation department may not be working but plenty coming from the sky but that may make it hard to water a garden unless you can store enough for that garden
Now is the time to buy food. Food is more important than guns, bullets, PMs, or whatever. It will be bad 'out there' when the economy collapses. One's best chance is to lay as low as possible for the few weeks of months. You can't do that when you are waiting for hours for a roll of toilet paper.
I am the great cornhoulio and i need tp for my bunghole . yes don't forget the simple things
Don't forget your vehicles. Datex packs + mylar pouched water. If you get stuck out somewhere away from home they will literally be a lifesaver.
Unlike people the prepped in the 60s, 70s, and 80s that did it for various reasons we are faced with a mathematical certainty. The collapse of the dollar and our economy and ability to 'buy' items in turmoil. It will happen in the next few months or short years. So prepare the best you can and the lemmings are on their own, suffering the consequences of their delusion.
Don't worry about expiration dates. Almost all canned foods are edible for 10+ years and that may be longer than most of us will be around to enjoy.
The price of food going up, has more to do with the drought in the midwest, which has been in the news for months now.
The increase in fuel costs also play a major role in the how much we pay as well, as does the devalued dollar.
The drought has got so bad, wells are running dry and people are paying to pump water into these wells, just so they have water.
Stockpiling, has little to no effect on the actual price of the food we purchase.
Reusable seeds???
I have noticed steady food prices climbing the last year, but the last month I saw the biggest jumps.
I am putting away what I can, preparing for a rough time ahead.
