A couple of years ago I discovered an excellent series of TEOTWAWKI survival articles, written by ‘Foodgrower’, and hosted by Kenny over at ‘Knuckledraggin’.
The articles are no-nonsense, in-your-face, read-it-and-weep information on what it really takes to be self-sufficient. It’s a real eye-opener that I strongly suggest be read by anyone that is ‘prepping’ or knows someone that is.
I’ve snatched an important concept from one of Foodgrowers articles that gives good insight on why you may want to heed what he says, It goes: I don’t want to just survive, I want to enjoy life. Come a Sunday morning I don’t want instant oatmeal from a foil package for breakfast. I want a two egg omelet with bacon and diced tomatoes, diced peppers, chopped mushrooms, a spoon or two of cottage cheese, maybe a sprinkling of sausage, fresh grated cheddar cheese, a healthy dose of sour cream and several shots of tobasco sauce. Which would you rather have? How about a strawberry waffle smothered in fresh butter and whipped topping? Maybe bacon, two eggs over easy and hashbrowns with a short stack beside ’em. These menu options sure beats those survival rations.
