my question is, if storing food (more than 7 days worth) is criminal now - and with food prices soaring - wtf's everyone to do?

wow, check out the YT channel

Why would you peel the potato? When I live alone I have eaten a potato like that over the course of several days. Squirrel + potato + salt, is a real depression meal. Also ketchup and hot water is a good one too, IE depression soup. You would be surprised at what you can do. If you live anywhere even semi-rural, get your self a pellet gun and try eating some small/game or vermin, some aren't that bad at all.

That was great, I wish I still smoked weed, would have been even better.

Reminds me of that artist dude that used to be on tv? he painted and it was all relaxing and shit. Who was that guy again? Anyone have any vids?

I didn't live during the Great Depression, however, I did live thru some hard times with my family as a kid.

My mom was a single mother of 4 kids. She worked full time and earned anywhere from 1 dollar per day to 2.65 per hour, the most she ever earned.

We ate a lot of fried potatos, fried bread and a lot of beans. Our food supply always ran out around Wednesdays of each week, so we always spent a couple of days hungry.

On special occasions we had some type of meat with our meals. One meal I love to this day is rice with tomato 'gravy', fried bacon and fresh biscuits. I could eat that over a steak dinner any day.

We always sat at our kitchen table together in our 800 sq foot home and shared our meals. We were and still are a very close family. We didn't have a lot, but mom kept our home and clothes neat and clean and she always made everything cozy for us.

Now, looking back on my life, I wouldn't change a thing about how I grew up. We didn't have alot, but it made me appreciate everything in my life. Today I am thankful for not only the big things, but the little things as well. Like when I put gas in my car and I can fill the tank up each time instead of getting a dollar or two at a time.

And even though I can have a steak dinner now every night of the week if I wanted to, I still sometimes prefer the fried potatos or some nice rice and tomato gravy with a little bacon on the side.
