Survival Punk | Ep493: Slow Collapse Skills: Growing & Preserving Food
Thursday Sep 04, 2025
Thursday Sep 04, 2025
When people think collapse, they picture mushroom clouds, zombies, or Mad Max chaos. But the more likely scenario isn’t overnight anarchy — it’s a slow collapse. Prices keep creeping up, jobs get shaky, and shelves don’t always look as full as they used to. That’s Depression 2.0. And in that kind of world, the skill that matters most is putting food on your own table.

Ready Your Future | That One Hard Ingredient to Stock in Your Food Storage
Thursday Sep 04, 2025
Thursday Sep 04, 2025
Most preppers have mastered the art of stockpiling beans, rice, and canned goods, but there’s one critical ingredient missing from nearly every food storage plan that could sabotage your family’s health during an emergency. While you’ve focused on calories and shelf-stable proteins, the challenge of storing adequate fats and oils for long-term nutrition remains one of the most overlooked aspects of comprehensive food storage preparation. This episode reveals why fats are absolutely essential for your body’s vitamin absorption, immune function, and sustained energy—yet they present unique storage challenges that standard food pantry planning doesn’t address.
You’ll discover unconventional sources of healthy fats that you’ve probably never considered for your stockpile, from surprising everyday items to strategic long-term solutions that extend far beyond basic cooking oils. Todd explores the shelf-life realities of various fat sources, proper storage techniques that maximize longevity, and homestead-based approaches for truly sustainable nutrition planning. Whether you’re dealing with financial stress and relying more heavily on your food storage, or preparing for extended supply chain disruptions, understanding how to incorporate essential fats into your preparedness strategy could mean the difference between thriving and merely surviving. This isn’t just about adding another item to your stockpile—it’s about ensuring your food storage provides complete, health-sustaining nutrition when your family needs it most.
