WHEAT “ONLY” 3

*
There is an article Saturday, but don't get too worked up as it is a book review and we all know how unexcited you all are usually with those.
*
The movie "Temors 5" is out both at Redbox and Netflix.  Reviews at Amazon mostly claim it better than the other sequels.
*

You have your calories, five years worth for $500, plus container cost, would be my recommended minimum because in the great scheme of things two weeks wages are no big deal now but several years of base calories will be very important later.  You have your fat, as many containers as you can afford to buy and have places to store ( replace every five years.  I would think a dollar every two weeks set aside would do nicely to replenish ).  Now you need your protein.  Beans are no longer cheap, at a buck a pound and all the fault of those pricks from California that let every swinging dingus that wished move into areas competing with agriculture irrigation so when things got a little dry we no longer had cheap produce.  Which means that all you can afford is about a quarter pound a day to supplement your grain ( the combo legume and grain advocated by Diet For A Small Planet ) for a complete amino acid delivery system.  Not that this will satisfy your meat graving.  It will not.  Some anthropologists claim that one of the primary drivers behind the extreme violence in the Amazon by those Yamo-whatever tribe dudes stems from the lack of meat in their diet due to environmental conditions, leading to territorial conflict ( of course, that might be false, as others claim it is more about lack of females, due to the self reinforcing feedback loop of selecting males for military dominance.  But even if the meat craving theory is false, we all know how our body desires it, on par with sex and salt ).

*

I would recommend stockpiling Spam.  Just like shortening, it is fake food bordering on licking the sweaty testicles of your boss in taste and of a suspected origin ( vat meat?  ).  But the generic can is $1.29 at Kroger and you can’t beat that deal with a sharp stick.  Get as much beans as you can, then start supplementing with generic Spam ( beans have twice the calories by weight.  Perhaps three times the calories price wise.  They won’t satisfy your meat craving even if they give the body the bare amino acid it needs, but CALORIES COME FIRST ).  You are already covered for vitamins, as I recently wrote about ( $35 gives you five years of a multi-vitamin if taken every other day, supplemented daily with wheat sprouts for the unknown but needed vitamins but more importantly the needed fresh food enzymes ).  Wheat for a calories base.  Shortening for fat.  Beans and a limited amount of Spam for protein.  Wheat for fresh veggies and vitamin pills for any missing nutrients ( I assume you have iodized salt.  The water softener salt, sodium chloride [NOT potassium chloride], is your bulk salt which is not iodized.  That will cure your meat and provide trade salt, but have a large stash of iodized salt to keep you healthy, especially if you lack access to salt water fish ). 

*

Wheat, a pound a day for five years ( 400 pounds per year to give you some for sprouts ) $500.  Twenty-five cans of shortening, about $100.  Beans, a quarter pound a day for five years, $500.  One hundred cans of Spam, a paltry amount only giving you one can a week for two years, should be no more than $150.  And with the vitamins, round it out to $1300.  I would imagine about $400 for containers, if that.  $2k is what most of you spend on your semi-auto fetish after magazines.  So is several hundred less than that too much to ask for five years of a complete diet of 1900+ calories a day?
