Quite a bit, actually. However, its a skill Americans never developed.

My ex wife had a pretty decent kitchen garden.

Like you know a fucking thing about this country.

I guess the ex-wife got as tired of your ill-informed sophomoric rants as we have.

Duh, Americans don't know how to grow food

You people are fucking retards. Humans were meant to survive on protein, not bread and other assorted carbs.

Two words: Soylent Green.

There are a whole lot of people out there we don't need and no one would miss.

Who wants to eat smelly negros and street people

The ability to store cooking oil without degradation is the holy grail.

Not only can it supply calories, it can also be used directly as fuel in diesel engines.

If food is a problem, simply buy 10 years worth of food for a couple of thousand dollars.

Costs a lot more than that for 10 years of food, especially if you bought it pre prepared, preserved and ready to go.

Many of those foods are very high in sodium content too, so you have to be careful.

If you buy bulk items and plan on self preserving and canning, it will cost less, but 10 years of food is a hell of a lot of effort. Plus, if your'e new to all of this there's always the chance that you open up the cans 5 years later and it's full of bugs and critters that have been munching on it.

Many of us dropped out a long time ago. I am almost finished building my earth ship abode. When I am done the only thing I will not produce myself will be my internet connection.

Not going to say thank you? That's okay, I'm used to it.

i have some tuna fish canned with an exp date of 2006. How long passed exp date can you still eat them? I am thinking of just tossing them to the trash, but before I do, I like to ask what F2 experts think.

Canned foods are good until opened so long as it was prepared properly at canning and the can isn't compromised. If it has been you'll smell it as soon as you open it.

They've eaten canned foods from the beginning of the last century and found them fine

You could buy 10 years of food for less than $10,000 if you have the proper storage equipment.

I say thank you, as I did when the stock market crashed. It is you guys who are holding it all together, and that will be even truer in the future.

The maintenance of local and international connectivity is crucial, and will probably come under attack.

May the good force be with you.

basics of modern canned food: air tight seal; contents of can heated very quickly to temp beyond which bacteria die and held there just long enough to ensure that the bacteria have died.

There's no oil in canned tuna?

contents would include oil. the air tight sealing of aseptic contents would prevent spoliage.
