Rising Food Cost

I don’t know about you, but fear of rising prices and the fact we are going into the fifth month of the year can be overwhelming. Friday night I was in Prepper Nurse 1’s chat stream and there was this kind soul which informed us that gas will be up ten bucks a gallon by the end of the year. Dear God!!!

Also, as I shared earlier this month the cost of prescriptions is going up. I saw a four dollar jump in one for acid reflux. Now when you look at all of these things, don’t be surprised if your head explodes. The price of food is a whole other issue. On top of that we have fires. Yeah! Warehouses across America have been catching fire. Twenty of them in the first four months. We have to look closer at these structures.

Some of these were actual warehouses, processing plants and an Azure headquarters. That headquarter was a total lost. Some were salvageable. The Walmart in Frenchtown Michigan had a fire. It wasn’t real bad and it was caught in time. A couple of fires were so bad they raged for hours.

Now here’s the elephant in the room. Eastern Europe! Ukraine, Belarus, Russia and Kazakhstan are the main producers os commodities like wheat for flour. As we know, the conflict between Russia and Ukraine has prohibtted the growing off commodities which are desperately needed around the world. The ridiculous sanctions are hindering the shipping of grains to third world nations. Also, moving of life depended fuel like lng being hindered by stupid policies by narcissistic lunatics. (More on that angle check out my Hornsandhalo.blog.wordpress.com here on WordPress.)

What can we do to protect our holiday meals coming up? Buy now and seal (or preserve). Personally, I am going to get two hams and two turkey breast. Then I will have up coming holidays taken care of. Do this as soon as you can. Prepping is a marathon not a race y’all. You can do it even on a tight budget.
