Re: A Week Living Off Rations
I think this diet is a great example of a short term solution. Longer term the calorie count might be too low, especially if SHTF forces more activity on you. "In the long term we are all dead" ;) I suppose that we don't know what scenarios we face, so the future might be a sequence of sh...

Re: What Preps are you doing this week? Part 12

I don't use tofu because its just soya beans, after all, in expensive form, but it might be worth buying ...
