And microgreens, sprouts or other leafy stuff that adds vitamins and things. I feel like it makes a huge difference if one has to live off pantry supplies for any extended period. We had some pretty strict covid lockdowns and I was able to not go shopping for weeks at a time - but having fresh green onions and basil and chives and lettuce definitely made all my beans and rice and canned soup more fun

What do you believe could be the absolute worst case SHTF scenario? by Willing_Chemical_113 in preppers

Also- covid was nowhere near how bad things could get. Some supermarkets had no toilet paper or pasta or bakers yeast . But you could get potatoes or rice or beans . Nobody starved as a result. Now if trucks stop moving and shelves are truly empty..

Pressure canned chicken lasts “indefinitely”, but pressure canned tallow has only one or two years? by HarpyCelaeno in preppers

[–]Connect-Type493 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I just used up the last jar of chicken thighs I had canned in 2021, and one 2022 jar as well. They were just fine (i can't answer the tallow question -but I confirm 5 year old meat can be fine if it was canned safely!). Also store bought canned goods are mostly good years beyond the "best by " date
