Some folks disdain canned foods. I'm probably in the same
camp, although I have a supply of canned tuna and canned
fruit as my earthquake (northern California) fallback. I use
and like canned tomatoes and broth (low sodium).

I'm reminded of an episode of Wanted Dead or Alive
(Steve McQueen from the late 50's/early 60's). The
McQueen character goes into a general store and
sees canned peaches for the first time. As I remember
it, McQueen and the clerk marvel at this novel, modern
product.

If Globalism continues the only thing on market shelves will be "peaches."

Globalism will continue. The ones that govern the governors will see
to that.
