I doubt any of the fat asses who eat that fake food will starve.

No, but they'll die a slow death from diabetes, heart disease, cancer & obesity from the processed garbage that corporate America poisons American's diets with.

They poison themselves. In any case, everybody starts dying a slow death as soon as they're conceived. Some just get there quicker than others.

It is best for people to learn to start growing your own food.

Rabbits are easy to breed and raise for meat.

The Mormons have a great system. Very popular with preppers, and not really expensive, either. Check them out.

Their stores aren't limited to Mormons; I buy a sizable supply through them every year or so, on top of my own supplies of dried veggies and meats.

In his 3rd autobiography written before he was 40, notable narcissist Barack Obama described grasshoppers as crunchy.

And dog meat was tough but snake meat was even tougher.

I guess it would depend on the method of cooking. If you cooked dog meat low and slow, it might get tender.

We used to go to the annual rattlesnake roundup outside Strawn, Texas every year. They had cooking contests competing over who could cook them the best, and also people who make belts and hatbands and other stuff out of them.. Nowadays the big one is in Sweetwater, Tx. several other places have them as well. Pretty cool; everybody should go to one at least once.

I get up in the morning
Drink a cup of coffee
I look out of the window
I try to get it started.......

I used to think that too. But now, the squirrels have Raccoon Round Worm, the raccoons are carrying rabies, the deer and elk have wasting away disease.
If times get hard, the elite have decided that we are not entitled to ammunition, seeds, water, soil, or clean air. That's just for starters. Any private property is out of the question...

Hs anyone seen the price of seed lately?

I just broke into the new bunch of beef I got from a member of my church. Completely pastured and then hay fed in the winter. Grown by friends of mine who are just as assiduous as I am about only putting clean food in my body. My friends know that almost no corn these days can be truthfully called "organic" or non-GMO.

I started browning some hamburger to start a soup with, and I was blown away by a beautiful smell I hadn't smelled in a very long time -- beef like we ate as kids, before industry started poisoning our food.

And it was cheap! I bought a quarter of a calf and it came out to be less than $5 per pound! The steaks and short ribs are calling my name from the freezer!

.

Same thing around here. Local beef, local butchers. One of the kids will drop your order at your doorstep.

The latter effects of the War with Iran, & The Strait of Hormuz being closed, will not fully affect Us, until approx. next month.

Farming will be hit extremely hard

 

[BasicHumanUnit]

No need, really. Country folk will survive regardless.

Shit. I could go down to the creek and make a meal out of crawdads and poke salad if I had to.

I live about as rural as it gets.
LONG ago there used to be deer, wild boar and TONS of wild life.
I haven't seen a single deer in 3 years thanks to dumb ass joy boys shooting everything that moved for their fun the last 3 decades.
Even coming around at night with spot lights in large boy banger parties on 4 wheelers that I had to run off.
Now if there's a food crisis there's nothing out there to bag for basic sustenance.
Stupid, egotistical, tiny parts people will be the end of humanity.

If it went full Color Revolution then folks who live in Cities 175k or more are screwed

A LOT of them will be for sure. But as supplies run out, survivors will start spreading out.
I don't even think it'll take 175k. Probably 50k or more.....dunno

I used to say 150k but that was for a Nuke attack

Basic, here in Ohio we've got deer coming in to our yard to eat corn, & lick a salt block, on a daily basis. We've got gobs of Wild Turkey, squirrel, & rabbit, as well as a creek with Bass, & Cat fish.

Once everything that is headed our way, hits,..... We won;t have to go to a FEMA Line for a hand out, for quite some time, but,... The Problem is ,..... Those who live by Taking what they want, & not working for it, will come out of the Cities, & Head Our Way.

And, once "Big Brother" has subdued those in the cities,... "He" will come looking for Us.

Is there a coming US food crisis?​

Most Americans can’t imagine their favorite restaurant just being out of certain foods. But the threat is closer than we think.​

It is difficult to imagine that the mighty United States could face threats to its seemingly abundant supply of grocery store and restaurant offerings. America has led the world in creating the modern industrial food system (known as “the Green Revolution”) and remains the world’s top food-exporting nation. Yet economic and logistical fractures have become visible, threatening to burst this illusion of plenty in a matter of moments.
America’s farms have been quietly disappearing for decades, and productive farmland acreage has dropped in tandem. The U.S. now imports more food than it exports, much of that from China. The pandemic revealed the vulnerability of strained supply lines as grocery shelves emptied of more than mere toilet paper. Americans clamor for cheap hamburger, but the U.S. cattle herd is the smallest it’s been in 75 years. These are all harbingers of future food supply challenges.
The farmer revolts in the E.U. are distant from America’s shores, but they reflect ongoing ideological pressures by globalists determined to dominate the world’s food production system. The odd bedfellows of animal rights activists and climate alarmists who attack farmers in Europe gather annually at Davos to declaim human eating habits. Both groups seek to “liberate” animals from the food supply: one to save the animals (and leave them unalived, because they will disappear); the other to save the world...from alleged climate change and the ubiquitous carbon culprit.
~Snip~
Whether this drive to consolidate farming into the industrial model is motivated by a desire to control humanity (linking food purchases to an electronic currency and social credit would be a doozy) or simply the age-old push to increase market share, the result is the same: increasing dependency on ever fewer farms and food manufacturers for foods that are shipped ever-greater distances. More than half of all U.S. produce is grown in California; more than half of all lamb eaten here is shipped from Australia and New Zealand. This distribution system isn’t very good for the environment; it’s even worse for U.S. food security.
Americans spent about 9% of their average household budgets on food for more than five decades, enabled by technological advances, chemicals that boosted yields, and cheap fuels. Yet all three of these advances conceal hidden dangers, especially dependence on cheap energy. The Iran conflict threatens to spike oil and natural gas prices. Diesel is used in tractors. Urea, a key synthetic nitrogen fertilizer, is made from natural gas. Cheap food is the direct product of cheap energy.
What non-farmer drive-thru diners don’t discern is how quickly inflation impacts energy-layered food production inputs. Tractors need diesel as they till, plant, spray, and harvest; pesticides, seeds, equipment, and fertilizers are manufactured and delivered using fuel; crops and processed food products are shipped through vast distribution networks of shipping containers and tractor-trailer trucks. Food supplies are thus particularly vulnerable to compounded inflationary impacts.


Commentary:
Democrats and their Social Marxist friends are trying to create food shortages. The Biden administration created suplly side shortages, killing cows and chickens (using flu as an excuse) which drove up prices.
Mr Klar has compiled snippets of current and past history to try and prove to us there’s trouble! Right here in river city! I’m seeing way too many of those articles here lately. Farms, family or otherwise, have been selling out to their neighbors for over a century. Much of this is generational. The industrial revolution created vast numbers of jobs off the farms. Many farm children took advantage of that. Growing farms have more to do with technology and horsepower. One man is capable of managing far more acres than or grandfathers could.
If you wish to look at our current problems, I’ll point you towards a couple of government regs. First is the ethanol mandate. Over 40% of our corn is used in our fuel tanks. When these mandates went into effect vast amounts of grassland and CRP ground was turned under and put towards growing $8 corn. Now we have a hay shortage. The other has been our decade’s of low interest rates. This easy money policy has driven land prices into areas most farmers are unwilling to go. Rather than play their game many retire and sell/rent. What is left standing tends to be what everyone wants to call industrial farms. I know of a farmer who operates around 10,000 acres. Is it industrial or family? It’s operated by a father and son. They need to spread their ever growing inputs over more acres.

How many grow food in their gardens (yards)?

I remember my dad growing food through the winter in the greenhouse, heated by a paraffin heater.

It's depressing to see how much road kill there is on my drive into town. Lots of road kill means lots of wildlife.

Loads of squirrels and bunnies, as well as plenty of deer.
