#MILKGANG

Im with you all the way in that one brother

Fresh milk is best milk

Ive been trying to tell my fam to drink regular milk

None of that low fat milk

too many hormones

My mom drinks almond milk exclusively
I was so glad to get to uni and buy regular fucking milk again (this was before I knew about shelf-stable milk)

WHICH IF YOU HAVEN'T HEARD

is incredibly based

They sell it at the dollar tree in 1/4 gallon boxes

lasts a full year unopened and unrefrigerated

also comes in 1% and 2%

The real question is @itstooslim, will it fuck me with a fuck ton of estrogen

No more than regular milk does

they just pasteurize it at a higher temperature

Ok ok, if I see it over here in my island I'll give it a try

I just went with a big box of powdered milk

Figured I'd get more value for my money that way

Probably tbh but I don't like powdered milk very much

I've never had it before. But in a time of crisis, I'd definitely drink it

Better than nothing

At least not the kinds I've had

I understand that perspective but definitely make a habit of trying something before you decide to stockpile it

You will want to kill yourself if you have to eat shit you hate every day to stay alive

Store what you eat, eat what you store <:boomer:673420154214023189>

I mostly got stuff that I already eat or would like to eat

I'm a little worried about the 20 lb bag of rice I got though. I realized after the fact that I shouldn't have gotten the walmart brand rice since, idk, it could have a lot of lead or arsenic or w/e in it

I already wash my rice very well before cooking--would that be enough to get any contaminants out of them?

mfw I eat Walmart brand rice

<:really:673419076969824256>

Why would it have arsenic in it? @antiquarian

I have like 50 fucking pounds of it stored <:cryjak:673420780565954560>

It aint as bad as in my country dude

we got a brand called Rico shit has plastic pieces that look like rice

People have gotten sick over here

PR?

Yea man

How has that not been recalled

People have stopped buying it

But it says in the label that it does come with it

>yet people still bought it

Its weird man

Cause the rice comes from either the USA or China

And the chinese one was tested to have bits of plastic

Of course

Anyone know about the actual shelf life of these pouches? Like past the best by date
I'm thinking about not storing the cans anymore since I don't really eat them but I'll be eating these as I get into hiking

@Mr. Verboten thank you

No problem fam

I'm thinking about phasing the fruit juice out of my pantry and replacing it with #10 cans of powdered Gatorade mix like pic related
The drink mix will store longer and more compactly than the juice, and would be nice to have if I ever got sick to restore electrolytes. ||I shouldn't even be drinking fruit juice anyway||
Also the mix is way more cost effective than the pre-bottled stuff
Thoughts?

whats the price compared to marketed long storage drink mix?

@Vajjsmasher $5.38 for a 3.2 pound can

Augason Farms apple drink mix was about $17 for a 5.9 pound can depending on the seller

i'd say stock up on gatoraid but supplement with a couple of cans designed for long term storage in case it doesnt work out. though i cant expect it to go bad

yeah same

@everyone Sorry about the ping(s), but to anyone who downloaded my Excel spreadsheet, there is a HUGE flaw in the math of it that skews the nutritional data for fats (my data literally put my inventory as being 78% fats; that's now down to 22% after the correction). If you downloaded that spreadsheet and want the bugfixed version just ping me

Why

sorry didn't mean to hit enter yet

Ah

I can't believe I just noticed that flaw

I've been using this spreadsheet for months <:kek:673429914447249428>

I just assumed that my stocks of peanut butter ||and SPAM|| were skewing it but I felt something had to be wrong after I noticed the 78% thing

Spam is based

Yes it is
I get the reduced sodium version, slice it and pan-fry it like bacon with breakfast

fuck

<:coomer:674162989968130058>

First attempt at the Kodiak protein pancake. Soft yet crispy on the outside, would recommend <:apuyes:673419223715807259>

I love fried spam yes mate

I cut it into squares, fry in a little bit of sunflower oil and make a sammich

With a nice spread of marge

SPAM is the cultural bridge between bongs and burgers

<:fuckjannies:673427613368320000>

That sounds very good too

Spam is the best. It is canned, versitile, tasty, dense and pork so no muzzies allowed

what's spam?

only heard about it

never saw any in my country

Pork and ham mushed into a can

It's just brand name

Kek

Weird thing

Quick question

Are those water bags that are enclosed in a cardboard box safe for long term storage

Like image related

The water bag is made of some sort polyethylene shinny bag

Polyethylene is translucent so some light will get into the water

But the bag is enclosed in the cardboard which then the whole box is covered in a seal tight plastic that must be ripped in order to use it
