  1. I am trying to find recipes for main dish jar meals that can have canned meat added when making them. Freeze dried meats are so expensive I was trying to find ways of working around them. does anyone have any suggestions?
  2. I recently stumbled across Emergency Dehydrated Food, emergency food, disaster food, preparedness food, storage food, and survival food. and thought it was too good to be true. They are selling vacuum sealed dehydrated food in pales for a really reasonable price. I bought one pale that has 500 meals of lentil soup for $65 and another pale that has rice dinners (I think it tastes comparable to Hamburger Helper) 228 Meals for $100. I was shocked at the price and shocked again by how good it tastes. Anyways, I was excited, so I thought I would share a link.
  3. Hay every one I am new to this forum. My name is Greg I am very passionate about helping people to get prepared! I am on a mission to get as many Americans as I can prepared before it’s to late! Please take 90 seconds to view this short video. FreeFood2Go, Food & Dining, Midvale, UT 84032 I am the owner of a multi million dollar home improvement company. So why preparedness for me? Folks the writing is on the wall! It is time to get ready! How long have our leaders been asking us to get ready? One of the problems many Americans have right now is that they don’t have the money to get them selves prepared. That is why I joined my self with FreeFood2Go and started FreeFood4America. With Families helping families we can get people prepared faster. If you have your preparations done we need your help! If you are just getting started we can help you get your preparations done fast. Sorry I don’t mean for this to be a commercial. I have just never seen a way to help others like this one! Please take a few minutes to check this out and then pass it on! www.freefood4america
  4. In January i posted a link about an article that talked about massive solar flares. This article mentioned that these solar explosions could shut down electrical power grids worldwide. Here is the link: http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,478024,00.html Two months later and here is yet another article from NASA Space storm alert: 90 seconds from catastrophe - space - 23 March 2009 - New Scientist It seems as if these warnings are coming more often. The Church has told us to be prepared, to have food stored for at least one year. To have our 72 Hr back packs ready in case of emergencies. This is a reality and It is just a matter of time. We are living in the last days and this revelation about being prepared came from our prophets a long time ago. So we shouldnt have any excuses when that day comes. The good news........We still have time to prepare.....or do we? Just food for thought.
  5. At times I have tested food storage 100% and always find that the food gets heavy and boring. I have never found a way around this. Fresh milk and eggs at the very least seem to take the edge off. Powdered milk or just plain water get old and heavy. I get to a point where I have to decide if I am more hungry or more sick of the choices available. Although an acquired taste that many may not like at first, may I suggest home made yogurt as a partial solution. This takes the edge off the monotony and contributes to digestion. Almost everyone has a yogurt maker. Put a 60 watt bulb in your oven, crack it open with a thick folded towel, and if you have a thermometer, make sure it doesn't go over 115º F, mine stays around 105º this way. I have also closed the door, it gets to about 125º F and dehydrates some food. Find a yogurt starter that you like, or you can start by buying plain yogurt and putting a tablespoon into a quart of boiled (to kill the bacteria and only use the bacteria you provde as a starter) and cooled to no more than 110 degrees, it won't burn your wrist at all to touch the container but will be comfortably warm, and let sit at least 12 hours, 24 hours is better if someone is lactose intolerant. The bacteria will take the lactose content down 95+ percent during this extra time. Store yogurt tends to culture for 8-12 hours I am told. Voila, happy yogurt that is alive and will help digest some of that dead dried stuff you are eating. Could take the edge off some of the discomfort if something like this were actually used. I have taken powdered milk from heavy and boring to alive and fresh this way, and some may not mind adding it to milk to get the best of both worlds. I have gotten at least 10 generations out of this, so it saves the starter even more. There are many additional benefits to probiotics, improved immune, stronger digestion, healthy intestinal walls, so many other things. Seems to me a good and simple thing to add to any preparedness program. This is even easier with powdered milk since you can boil the water pretty much on high without burning it, and then adding a cup of thick powdered milk mixed already so it isn't lumpy. I use 1 scoop sweet dairy whey and 1 scoop casein protein to one quart water, sometimes a little whey but this isn't good for yogurt I don't think. Turn the heat down, stir while it gets back to boiling. There is no oil in this and no high fructose corn syrup from normal powdered milk recipes, so I am not sure how those milk powders would ferment, but I imagine they would be fine. There are many strains of bacteria, so you can choose between strong digestion, smooth and creamy, different mixes.
