And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

Delivered to your door, stack 'em in the garage, keeps forever without effort, and be ready for the winter or TEOTWAWKI, whichever comes first.
Eh,for soups,I go with the Campells Chunky as a lot more material per can,neither probably that good but when times tough be the best eating ever,also,can get the chunk at much lower price when on sale.
Found a case of 12 last spring when the students at the local college were moving out. Still sitting in my pantry. Along with the 40+ cans of ravioli that students also tossed (and mac&cheese, and sandwich crackers, granola bars, and...).
It is my understanding from folks who are "preppers" that canned food lasts a long time but not forever. Put the date that you got the cans on the top of each can so that you know that in ten or 15 years, the food value may be iffy.
The comments about expiration dates on canned goods are generally pure poppycock. As long as the vacuum seal is intact there's nothing wrong with the food, except perhaps a degradation of flavor and if old enough, nutrition, over time.
One of the reasons that canned and most other preserved foods are salty is because salt kills bacteria, thus one cause of spoilage, something cave men discovered a long time ago. I do agree that most canned products way overdue the salt for no reason other than to protect themselves from lawsuits over spoiled food.
On the expiration date again, when you or members of your family are hungry to the point of wasting away, are you really going to quibble over the date on a can of otherwise perfectly good food? Yeh, thought not.

ReplyDeleteNo garage.
ReplyDeleteA lot of canned goods need to be in an environment of controlled humidity. Otherwise the can rusts through.
Repeated freezing and thawing will spoil a lot of canned goods.
DeletePrepping for food poisoning, or morbid obesity.
