I was looking at stuff on Amazon today and saw some mountain house food SNAP / EBT eligible. I guess it never dawned on me that people with food stamps can buy freeze dried food. It's good knowledge to have that emergency long term storage food is eligible for these programs. I don't think that was the INTENT considering that EBT is supposed to be for immediate nutritional needs, but I'd prefer to see my tax dollars buying real food rather than stuff like Mountain Dew and Red Bull.

Thanks!
Bought a couple more buckets. Mountain House is about the only brand I use regularly, and one pouch is a meal for both the wife and I.
I used to buy boxes of the meals for my parents when cooking got dangerous for them due to age and infirmaties. Great for them just add hot water, you got a hot meal.
Worked really well for them, and a lot better than just canned soup or a sandwich for every meal.

Here's a new one: freeze dried king crab legs. THREE DAYS ONLY.

It "should" apply a 20% discount by using the link. If not, try discount code kINGCRAB

https://freezedrywholesalers.com/pro...43506775458050

To be clear, this isn't that the sale is for 3 days. The king crab legs will only be available for purchase for 3 days. If they ever offer it again, it probably won't be until next year.

In addition, here's a code for 20% off entire site; this week only.
'CanadianPrepper'

I really like this company, have watched a couple of his(CEO/founder)interviews; they have a very unique and perfected process.
And yesterday he divulged some interesting news.
The federal reserve bank in NYC placed a huge order, all high end stuff; filets, asparagus, cheesecakes etc.
Now I can fully understand all of the recent orders they filled to stock various foreign embassies et al., but why is the Fed Res prepping out a fortified building?.
This gives new meaning to the term banking bail-in.
Gold is stored there, allegedly; only it is vaulted underneath the structure.

Can you forward the link to that interview? PM is okay if you don't want to post it.

I gotta say I'm not surprised. The interest on our debt is now $1T/year, having doubled in only 19 months. If it continues growing at it's current trajectory, the interest on the debt will exceed the entire amount of revenue the country takes in by 2028. That means we will have to "borrow" money just to make the interest payment, and there will be no money leftover to run the country.

I know a lot of people will point out "If it continues growing at it's current trajectory" and say that's unlikely. Okay, so if you discount the last 19 months it still only extends the date until 2033. On the OTHER hand, if there is another big expense like COVID or a WAR, then it could change the trajectory the other direction, and maybe we don't get to 2028 before the world realizes the end of the ponzi scheme is here and it's time to dump our debt instruments.

Just wasted 30 minutes searching for the 2 videos with Steve, the owner; they have been removed from Youtube.
Why, I do not know...sorry.

I am very interested in that order, or more precisely, the date of that order.
Do you think you could take a SWAG at when it was placed or filled?

a lot of the world has already realized it, and bond investments by foreign countries are way down. They can't just dump them, due to the way the market works (you have to have a buyer, unless you want to give them away for pennies on the dollar). When the end gets near, the interest rates will begin to rise, because no one will want to buy them. Like what happened with Cyprus and Greece about 20 years ago. Interest rate got to 45% and then the default came, with Russia bailing them out. There is no one to bail us out, so it will probably lead to high inflation and loss of government services (including SocialSecurity).

TPTB probably don't want that kind of thing known. Remember all the information that was taken down in 2020, for various reasons?
