10 Items Harder To Find...Grocery Shortages SHTF Ahead...Prepping Supplies Stockpile Hard To Get
Items hi it's AlaskaGranny Alaska Prepper you can see how low the sun is in the sky here in
Alaska these days and it's been extremely cold last night it was -10 and the night before that
was minus seven and they're saying this is going to go on for another couple days so you need to
be prepared when the weather gets super cold maybe you don't want to go out to the store so
it's a great idea to have prepper Pantry full of food because the sun is so low in the sky you can
see sun is streaming into my kitchen so yay I have some direct rays of sunshine for now so the reason
I'm making a video today is to talk about 10 items that are harder to find they might be items that
if you don't have them in your pepper Pantry in your food stockpile you might want to think
about adding these 10 items if they're foods that you use or maybe don't have enough of the first
food that's in short supply is wheat so you might want to think about the wheat products that you
use do you have enough flour maybe you like to buy pancake mix waffle mix biscuit mixes check
over the cereals you have that are made with wheat and even crackers the next food that might be in
short supply is sugar and one of the reasons why we might all of a sudden find a drop in the supply
of sugar the US is putting restrictions on sugar Imports sugar comes from sugar beets or sugar cane
if you can find cane sugar that's probably preferable that you buy that you also need
to be aware that a lot of sugar is going into the manufacturing of ethanol and so that takes it out
of the food chain and puts it into the fuel supply canned foods are always coming and going in short
Supply Plus the prices continue to rise check over your stockpile make sure you have plenty of canned
meat canned vegetables canned fruit and if there's any types of soup stews chilies any of those kind
of foods that you buy that come in a can check out the supply that you have make sure you have enough
that you feel you have an adequate amount going forward and then check over what is in the store
and see if there's anything you want to add to your stockpile shortage is a baby formula aren't
as harsh and dire as they were months ago but baby formula is still in shorter Supply I was into the
store recently and I couldn't believe it that they only had one little shelf section with baby
formula they only had about 10 cans and that was it and it wasn't like the other shelves were empty
because they had been sold or they were waiting for more Supply the whole surrounding area was
filled in with other products there wasn't even a option that they were going to have more and fill
it all in so if baby formula is something that you rely on make sure that you can find the kinds that
you need you can even talk to your pediatrician perhaps you can get some samples from them which
would help you have an additional Supply to keep on hand for your baby I haven't had a problem
getting eggs but I know the prices are going up and I read that other people are saying that eggs
are in short supply so if eggs are something that you enjoy eating then make sure you have some if
you I want to be baking and you're not sure if you'll be able to get eggs it's nice to figure
out what are some substitutes that you could get to use for eggs you can get powdered eggs you
can get bubs Red Mill egg replacer and there are lots of other types of foods that you can use to
replace eggs in your recipes I'll put a link to a video I made about what you can substitute if
you can't get an egg if you're baking they may not be what you would want if you wanted to scramble
it and serve it on your plate but they could help you get through preparing your baked goods
one of my neighbors was telling me yesterday I went to this store I went to the meat department
I picked up three packages in meat and I had 81 and it wasn't even fancy meat so the price of meat
is still going up dramatically and if you still want to have fresh meat look it over see if you
can find additional Cuts or Alternatives that you might want to try to learn how to cook it's a good
time to explore using meal stretchers is so say you want to use ground beef ground turkey ground
chicken perhaps you could add in some lentils some bread crumbs some oatmeal and you could use those
as meat or meal stretchers to help the food go farther and still get the meat and the flavor
that you want but it cannot be then it helps reduce the expense if the the cost is too high
and the availability is limited don't forget pet food your pets rely on you they can't go to the
store and get food for themselves and especially when it's cold they may need need additional food
to help keep their bodies warmed up so they can have the calories they need to maintain
their body temperature in Colder Weather so pay attention to your pets and also if you bring them
in from out in the snow and ice check their paws make sure they don't have any Ice Crystal stuck
between the pads on their feet and if you know that your community uses say salt make sure that
you give those little paws a wipe and a cleaning so that they don't end up licking and getting any
of the surface ice and snow melters into their system paper products are great to have on hand
no matter what situation we come across on a daily basis we need our toilet paper we need
to Kleenex we need paper towels but then we also need paper plates paper bowls plastic utensils
disposable cups napkins if your water should stop running you may need those items so that you can
prepare and serve the foods that you cook and that you want I also like to have a stockpile
of Ziploc bags parchment paper and baby wipes take an inventory of your over-the-counter medications
make sure you have everything from pain relievers fever reducers cough medicines muscle rubs any of
the kinds of ointments and remedies that you would want check it out always be keeping tabs on these
things you can't just buy them once and set it aside some of those things do go out of date and
maybe they might be okay to use you always want to be paying attention to the medicines that you have
in your stockpile every time you go to the store think about these 10 items that you might want
to have in your stockpile every little bit that you have helps you have a better future because
you'll have those things you need no matter what the Day brings and so if you add a little at a
time and you keep building and adding to your stockpile and rotating and using those things
it's going to help you have a better future a better outcome whatever this whatever the
future holds we don't know what's coming but we can see that the prices are heading up and the
trajectory of that doesn't seem to be changing anytime soon and so the best way to combat that
is to tell yourself every package of food or Supply I buy today could be the least expensive
I ever see it again and just buy one or two keep adding to your stockpile it'll help us all in
the future the more of us who prepare and the better prepared we are the better outcome it'll
be for all of us 10 Items Harder To Find Grocery Shortages SHTF ahead Prepping Supplies Stockpile
