Surprisingly simple way to store your food =
Pressure cooker, Glass jars, cut up Beef roast (or chicken), salt...
I add bay leaf and onion, dried or not. (It appears any herb can go in, but little bits may get in the lid edge and sage turns bitter in the pressure cooker)
If you have the materials on hand, give it a try next time you are making dinner
- and eat just one of them that day
(perhaps chosen for you by the every time occurrence of one jar that doesn't seal -- seems is the standard when using the Mason jars from Walmart (Made in China?!))
putting the rest on a dark shelf for a day when you are in a hurry, the power is out, or meat prices sky rocket again.
Expect a flush of beef in the market now and through the next (few+?) months. = low and low(!) prices.
The ongoing drought is slashing the corn supply grown as feed for the cows and a higher % are butchered. (headlines news, no secret here)
With the following years of high and high(!) prices as the beef supply has been diminished.
(I'm reminded of Joseph in Egypt once again)
This, of course, will also mean deeper damage to food prices across the board as especially corn is in thousands and thousands of processed products (and I suppose the corn portion of our fuel) to further damage the prices of the already subsidized, cushioned, illusion of the food prices we are paying,.... as well as other midwest crops.
P.S. = I still don't promote the eating of the beef that is fed unidentifiable foods or foods that cows are not made to eat such as corn -- this would lead to sickly cows = sickly meat = sickly people -- but!! When the market is affected, grass fed beef prices are affected as well - and not always in the direction that your predict for your given rancher/source.
- And of course the corn based (GMO Contaminated) processed products are not food, so I don't promote them as your primary food source either...
("There is no such thing as 'junkfood', only junk and/or food")
You know,.... use your common sense! If it has been processed so far from it's God given identity to a product that kills rats (after they go looney tunes and eat their equally diseased companions) then it will eventually kill you too, just as a slower rate.
Sorry, I'm not sourcing my many mental references here, just use the phrases as search terms!
