Prepping For War - Buy Food Now Prepping Supplies Buy Now War Crisis Prepping hi
it's AlaskaGranny Alaska Prepper are you prepped for World War III we no longer have a world of
Peace we need to think about how to protect ourselves and going forward that means being
prepared we've been on the precipice of so many scary dangerous life-changing events recently this
is just one more and I don't know if this is going to be one of the big ones it's going to be a huge
change in our lives As We Know It This Could be one of those opportunities to finish stockpiling
fill in your prepping supplies your prepper Pantry get the things that you can still find and afford
before who knows what happens next this is one of those warnings everything hasn't just gone over
the top but it could within a few days and then there could be crowds there could be problems and
as we wake up and see the news fighting is broken out people are lined up to try to get gas food all
of the needs that we care about and that's one reason why we're Preppers we try to not be in
those lines by stocking up ahead of time let me show you the things that I bought so that you can
see if those are things that maybe you want to add to your stockpile too plastic bags can be hard to
find so I got some Ziploc gallon and quarts size bags in big boxes I bought the biggest box of the
most heavy duty largest black plastic bags that I could find these have so many uses I made a video
about how you can use black plastic bags I'll put a link to that so in case you're wondering
why would I want so many uh there are a lot of reasons so I'll put a link to that video so you
can see more about it if you would like having enough cleaning supplies and being able to buy
more could be a problem in many areas so I bought a big bottle of Windex something I don't use often
but I like to have on hand is the cleansers so I bought one container of comet this one
includes bleach it'll be extra nice to have it on hand for not only cleaning but sanitizing baking
soda is great for cleaning it's great for cooking it's wonderful for deodorizing so I picked up the
biggest bag that was available I found the pint size regular mouth canning jars that was the only
size they had so I chose one of these to be able to continue to process preserve and store food if
you see any kind of canning or preserving supplies it's probably a good idea to pick them up because
it's something you can always use in the future the more you learn how to can preserve pickle
ferment the better off you're going to be if food should become harder to find or less abundant next
I bought some groceries these are everyday type foods that could be very useful going forward and
typically these would all last at least 2 years and so they're going to be nice to have on hand no
matter what the crazy waves and ups and downs of the future present I bought a 10 lb bag of flour a
10 lb bag of sugar I bought a variety of packages of yeast if you have the basic ingredients you
can make some basic breads you can make basic biscuits it's important to have a nice supply
of the single ingredients that you can combine to do basic cooking I bought a 40 pack of fruit
snacks these are great to have in your bugout bag in your get home bag and even just in your pantry
it's a nice way to hand out a prepackage serving of a nice special treat I bought another package
of oatmeal it's one of the longest lasting Foods it's easy to prepare and it's very versatile it
would be a good idea if you included some oatmeal in your preer pantry and your food stockpile for
some reason cereal has been extremely hard to find many varieties have disappeared and not even come
back so it's easy to grab a great big bag of a flavor that you know you like you can pour out
the contents of the bag into a mylar bag and seal it well and that will help you extend the life of
your cereal for a couple extra years next I bought several packages of the Idahoan baby red potatoes
these are so easy you just add water and then you can top them with a can of soup a can of chili
your homemade beef stew you can even stir it into a soup super stew that you make to help thicken it
a little bit I store these in airtight containers and I've had them go many years past the date on
them and they've still been fine and good to eat I picked up a few boxes of my favorite crackers
the Triscuit avocado cilantro lime I think these are just delicious and I haven't had any in a few
months so it seemed like a good idea to grab them when they were available Walmart had the big cans
of my favorite powdered milk which is the Nido Fortificada this is absolutely delicious powdered
milk it's made from actual whole milk and it tastes delicious stir it into your recipes you can
mix it with water and serve it as milk and it is the only powdered milk that I've ever found that
tastes just as good as regular milk and so this is the only powdered milk that I store anymore plain
non-fat dry milk does have a longer lifespan than the nido fortificada and sometimes it's important
to have a little bit of extra nutrition of a baby formula that you want to include in your baby's
diet if you have infants small children or anyone with a special diet in your family make sure that
you have any extra food or supplies that they require another option for milk I picked up a few
cans of evaporated milk the cans are just not made to the strength and the standards that they used
to be the packaging is becoming an additional threat to Rising prices and food shortages
applesauce is great as a serving by itself you can stir it into your oatmeal you can also use
applesauce in your baking if you don't have eggs the only dried beans available were pinto beans
which I have plenty of but I don't have very many of the Green Split Peas so it was a good
opportunity to pick up a few bags of these they're so simple to just add into your crock pot with
a few simple spices and things to make a big old pot of soup I bought a can of vegetable shortening
which is a generic Crisco I don't normally use this in baking or cooking but I do use it to
season my cast iron pans you rub the Crisco on cast iron season cast iron put them in your oven
or even on your barbecue grill and season them it's a good idea to season your cast iron once a
year so that you're getting the best use out of it this is also versatile because you can make this
into a candle I wouldn't ever use this container because it's made out of paper or cardboard add a
wick into a jar add some of this into it and then you have a candle that you have made yourself in
a safe container the horal completes are nice for your bugout bag and that's the kind of food that
you want to continue to rotate these are fully cooked and they're in a very sturdy package
you don't have to heat them up if you don't have access to a microwave just peel it back and eat it
that's a strategy you should always Implement when you see new things buy one and try it if
you think you'd like it if you do like it you can always go back and get more don't load up on food
that no one is going to eat and you don't know if they're going to like it you don't have to
just stock up on the foods that you love you can also find some that you like and those might be
adequate if you can't get the ones that you love pick up extras of things that you like to use on a
daily basis I bought some pickle relish and some cooking spray if butter is in short supply look
for ghee ghee is something that some people like to make themselves but I prefer to buy it already
sealed and to put into my pantry I bought a few boxes of the Zatarains jambalaya it's a
nice variety way to have different foods in your pepper Pantry than just plain old rice and beans
get Zatarians packaged mixes that have seasonings in them Zatarians are great you can add a smoked
sausage you could add one of your canned hams you could add any kind of vegetable on the side even
look for some of the southern style field peas and snaps there's different kinds all different kind
of vegetables that you could serve on the side with this I bought a few cans of mixed vegetables
I bought several cans of Rosarita refried beans I like Rosarita refried beans no fat green chili
and lime I think it has a really good flavor so if you're looking for refried beans to try that has a
little different variety check out Rosarita see if it's one you like make a quick and easy meal can
of Campbell's chunky sirloin steak and vegetable soup add a can of mixed veggies stir Idahoan
mashed potatoes and then put your mashed potatoes in a bowl and serve Campbell's chunky soup over it
you have a nice full meal that can serve several people my favorite of the Campbell soups that I
find available these days is the pub style chicken pot pie and I bought a few of those I like them so
that's the thing find Campbell's chunky soup that you like I was surprised at some of the ones that
sounded good but when I tried them I didn't care for them at all so always just get one and try
it you never know you may find that you have a new favorite out of the varieties that are
available now nobody knows what's coming but we certainly have been riding waves of scary
times and concerning moments and that seems to be what's coming in the future as well I don't like
to think of gloom and doom but I want to make sure that I have the things that I need so I
can take care of myself and my family listen to your heart listen to that funny feeling in your
stomach your brain is trying to tell you something and if you feel uneasiness if you feel unsettled
you need to try to figure out what can I do so that I can prepare better to make the best of
every single day of my life if you enjoyed my video Prepping For War - Buy Food Now Prepping
