Long Term Food Storage Secret

LDS Canneries Are run by the Mormons (Church of Latter Day Saints) They are non profit and buy long term storage items by the truck load. There is no place else you will find long term storage supplies at this kind of price
I tried using the hand warmers in my rice in mylar bags it didn't take the oxygen out. The warmers were good and there were no leaks in the mylar that i could tell. Just wandered what went wrong. Is there a difference between activating them and not i tried both ways to c which worked because you never said. Before i sealed the bag i got out as much air as i possibly could . what wrong with bunking down in an area grow your own food and protect your property most people don't think about it but fortifying your property is much easier than people think big concrete wall electric fence and or explosives made from every day items also you can make alcohol sprayers so you can drench everything on the other side of your wall and just light everyone on fire they will turn to your neighbors and leave you alone,fier crackers ballbearings and pipe make great guns mobility may be necessary. who knows what the circumstances will be. the biggest draw back is the gov knowing where you are. most are already on record as being survivalists; that makes them potential terrorists. the main reason to die resisting the government is confiscation: our weapons and assets (like gold/silver). that is where the lines will be drawn. i don't think we will see a clearly defined line; it will be abstract. after all, being mobile may be as important as anything Moving is not always a must. you can set up nice defense around your home that can deter anyone. I think its more important to get into learning how to hunt and forage for food. Water in 55 gal drum is fine thinking but being able to collect clean water to replenish your supply is more important. dsarti was right though, you don't have to be some super survivalist to survive. Everyone knows something about survival. Learn from all or you will not learn a thing. I heard somebody state that the US Government were keeping up with all those storing food, and was going to come and confiscate it when martial law was declared. I do not know if that is true or not, but when they come to my safe place to take my guns, and stored items, I am taking them to hell in a blaze of glory.
