I plan on protecting my local library to preserve all knowledge that can help us stay alive and grow a healthy community.
Comment on U.S. ‘prepper’ culture diversifies amid fear of disaster and political unrest

Your grandmother learned to live like that because she had no choice. That’s what growing up in the Depression will do to you. No grandma would ever have freeze dried ice cream. Better learn how to milk a cow! Free milk, cream, and butter every day. But it’s not easy.

Obviously if you don’t live somewhere where you can have a cow, freeze dried is required or else you’ll die in around 96 hours. That’s the average amount of time someone can survive without ice cream, which I’m sure you’re aware

That’s why Japan lost in WWII. No ice cream ships. The US was sensible enough to send ice cream ships with their fleets.
