Friend works at Allen Canning Co. He said.......
OK, not my 'friend'!
But, my friend has a friend that works at Allen Canning Co. in NW Arkansas. He said that they canned the last of the green beans in the US this week. Adleast the last that they will receive. Although when I said that my friend was pretty serious about it being the last in the US.
No, this guy isn't a 'doomer'. We have had conversations in the past about World events and such. But, no 'doomer' stuff.
To err on the side of caution; my Husband and I went and stocked up on some goods.
The items we got today were canned in April. On the 11th to be exact!
Thats three months to shelf.
Not good.
Perfect time line to hit the fan in October.

The youngster said angrily " If our founding Fathers could see what is going on, they would roll over in their graves!"
The Ol'Timer shook his head and smiled. " No, they would be grabbing their guns".

food doom ftw!
political correctness is a doctrine.... fostered by a delusional, illogical minority...... and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media; which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.

A Man Has Got to Know His Limitations

I am just a sinner trying to make it to heaven!

Romans 8:35-39
Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?
As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.

Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.

For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come,

Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

I too am seeking other sources.
Grow season isnt even close to being over.
Main stream news is even picking up on the crop failures, and the culling of cattle.
Most folks in this area only had one decent cutting of hay this year, and I know a couple of people selling off cattle.

When in doubt; just check out the Ag report.

Re: Friend works at Allen Canning Co. He said.......
My point about it being produced in April, is the fact that basic canned produce is only three months from production to shelf.
That doesn't leave a big window for unforeseen circumstances!

I believe the reasoning on this is the control of cost margins. Bumper crop year? You wont see a savings because the surplus isn't put away for an emergency, or anything practical. Some is destroyed, and other exported. Why? A surplus would drop profit margins.

You know, I'm not sure?!?
I'll ask around.

We also stocked up on all veggies.
I know corn has had two bad years, and the drought is bad!
The charts on the Ag page are totally depressing. We're talking about consumer paying triple what we are now.

If you break it down, especially corn; the impact is going to be HUGE.

CORN:
We eat it.
We grow it to feed livestock, for us to eat, and by products.
Fuel.
Plastic alternative.

The list goes on.
