The last few times I've gone to the grocery store, the shelves have been pretty empty. And luckily I could give fuck all about the certain brands as long as I have food somehow, but I've been thinking about how screwed I'm going to be if the shortages increase even more with this whole russia/ukraine stuff

Gotta start gardening sooner or later I guess, but that's impossible when you don't own land

    China has had a record bad wheat harvest too.

    I bought a lot of rice (+100lbs) and dried beans recently. Combined with spices and frozen vegetables (and ones from the garden once it gets warm) it could be an okay diet for a few months even if shit gets real bad. Most home gardens aren't calorically dense enough to really sustain someone, so stock up on shelf stable calories and keep them dry.
