Question by benny blue balls 2: Should we start having fruit cellars again?
Back in the old days, our grandparents would keep fruit cellars to keep them through the hard times. Life was pretty hard back then and they had to find creative ways to deal with things.

Should we start that again?

When a can of beans is on sale, buy two of them, put one can in your fruit cellar. Save up for the hard times.

Folks, we have to find ways to get through these times without government, we have to stick together. Watch out for your neighbors.

Good idea. The next few-several years are going to suck. I remember my grandparents had one even back in the early 80’s.

    Eating all those beans is just going to contribute to greenhouse gasses.

  2. KingFrog. says:

    Sure, go ahead.

    It also serves a dual purpose of saving you if a natural disaster occured. =D

    There are bars for that sort of thing now.

    We should never have stopped

    You guys are extra crazy tonight.

    LOL

    I have heard Glenn Beck say that and I do think it’s wise advice. My parents always had emergency food stored away like powdered milk and powdered eggs. We had to use it a couple times in storms in the winter but I live in a rural area.

    It’s a good idea to have food storage! I don’t see any feasible argument against keeping some food stored up. The Mormon Church recommends 1 years worth of food. That seems crazy, though, because food doesn’t keep long enough. Call me nuts but we mostly eat fresh food. I don’t eat the preserved food unless it’s an emergency so I can’t see keeping 1 years worth. I’d forage and hunt before I ate that stuff.

    It would be prudent for every American to have a survival plan. Whether man made or natural disaster strikes we must be able to ride out the storm.

    always a good idea. the only problem i run into is the canned stuff ends up well past the ‘best by’ date before i feel like eating it. i always keep a supply of beans, tuna, sardines, split peas etc. though.

    i hope i’m wrong, but my intuition tells me some serious crap gonna be hitting the fan in the not-so-distant future. those who aren’t prepared will be just like the welfare class were after katrina – totally dependent on government.

    lucky me, i just had an aldi supermarket open less than 2 miles away. they gots kidney beans for .59/can, and plenty more bargains too!

    many citizens in san francisco have already discovered the joys of fruit cellars!!!

  10. gyt says:

    You mean people don’t do that already? I guess country folk like us always thought that was a good idea.

  11. Theron says:

    Yes.

    I agree. We have at least three weeks’ worth of Nutrisystem meals in the basement, along with at least that much water, radiation meters and other supplies. I live about nine miles from Buckley AFB, which is home to NORAD’s impact prediction radars,so I consider them a counterforce threat and our neigbhorhood on the edge of a nuclear target. Of course, Vladimir Putin would take downtown Denver out in a nuclear exchange, anyway. He’s just that kind of guy.

    As far as I’m concerned, we’ve pretty much been getting along without government here in Denver any way. For years, the city police have ignored illegal aliens’s lack of documents here on City Hall’s orders. When a gang of teen-age Hispanics were outside our home threatening us and vandalizing our home, the local police station sent two Hispanic cops who spoke to the scumbags and drove off without arresting anyone. Better to look out for our own interests, because John Hickenlooper and the Democratic machine won’t. So now, I’m concentrating on what I learned in police academy when I was younger – “better to be tried by twelve than carried by six.”

    That condenses to “Yes, fruit cellars are a good idea.” But trusting the neighbors may not be – the little skidmark next door to us hosted the gang party I referred to earlier. “Taking care of the neighbors” would be much easier – there was a sale on forty caliber ammunition at a gun show a few months ago, and I took full advantage. Two in the ten ring should do it, every time.

    hey Benny… I am with you on this one , 100%….
    but I’d take it a step further and say people need to learn how to preserve food themselves again… only there’d be a huge increase in food poisoning as so many of us have NO IDEA how to preserve food….

    My grandparents made jam and preserved fruits from their own fruit trees…pickles and chutneys…etc…

    and it’s something we should be doing whatever political leanings we have
    Finding it hard to make a balls joke on this post …..
