Eric found this: As food costs soar, it’s back to basics for meal planners. Eric’s comment: “What a wonderful chance for folks to start learning about eating their food storage foods and saving money! I think about my friends who have hundreds of pounds of red winter wheat put up and no idea what to do with it – they have no [grain] mill and don’t eat whole wheat bread or whole wheat anything. As someone who has been eating commercially available whole wheat products for decades it took my metabolism a while to become accustomed to 100% whole wheat bread made from our storage wheat – and I’m better for it. Now store bought bread tastes fake to me – it lacks flavor.”

RJ spotted this news article from England’s Financial Times: Widespread alarm is rattling at castle gates. The current real estate collapse is hitting the entire English-speaking world, and beyond. This is all tied to the global credit collapse that I’ve been shouting about since the summer of Aught Seven. And this collapse is nowhere near over. Methinks things will get a lot worse before they get better.
