    Our food is garbage. It’s all engineered to be fast growing, so it has no time to develop flavor and take up natural nutrients. The result is flavorless, empty food.

        The good news is, for us prepper types, is that proteins are looking to have a good, if short, crash in prices in the coming weeks or couple months as export orders dry up. They’ll drop just to break even on the immediate costs, then go back up again as farms scale back their operations to accommodate the decreased demand, raising costs back up again, except at that point, it’ll likely be higher as there’s no real “buffer” of producing more for exports and there’s an overall smaller count of source animals.

        Now’s a good time to get a chest freezer (or a second one) and get it ready to stock up.

        You are for getting about the corporate greed aspect of it. It will never be cheap if they think they can charge more for it.
