when the sh%t hits the fan, or stocking up for the end...


as of late i've been buying canned foods as i watch the economy spirals downward. i really didnt buy into the whole y2k thing, so i missed that whole mess, but even if everything works out for the best, ive found that preparing for bad times is an interesting hobby. my mom came from a different generation/time and always has an abundance of food in the basement, so i think i will follow her lead. not a bad idea, when i live next to a bunch of active volcanoes (the cascades) and on top of land that is long due for an earthquake.
ive collected enough food for maybe 3 weeks, most of the staples like vegi's and fruit..some fish. meat in a can is pretty hard to come by. see spam.
i did find one of my favorite sandwich speads in a can.
yep, you guessed it-> liverworst. thats right-
braunschwieger!
man, im so on it...and it even comes in a can.

i like the little review of the can of braunschwieger!

"Begun more than 170 years ago on Boston's Russia Wharf by William Underwood. Underwood's canned foods were among staples pioneers took westward in their covered wagons. The "Underwood Devil" appeared in 1870 as a descriptive logo for the process of "deviling"(ground meat processed with special seasonings). The oldest existing trademark still stands for quality and great taste!"

i will try and do another blog on this william underwood fella as i search the internet for the devil's ham.
