Growing up on a farm, I always told my spouse that if a severe earthquake hit I was going to go to the farm supply store and get two 50 lb bags of “calf mana” to feed our child with (if needed). “Calf mana” is basically powdered baby formula for calfs/colts/sheep/etc.
I’m sure it would be safe to eat (in an emergency). Wouldn’t normally use it, but in a pinch it’s better than starving.
Well, our child is past the stage of using formula. So it’s not an issue (for that) anymore.
The farm store is fairly close, so getting there shouldn’t be an issue (even in an emergency). Spouse is not as concerned about those things as I am (and I’m not real concerned about it either [i.e. I’m not a prep-er]).
You have the perfect level of concern in my opinion. You’re not a preper but you have at least formulated an idea about these things. In an extreme emergency it beats going with your gut which for most people would be just going to the store and trying to get baby formula.
Woah, I just understood why we eat meat: to drain animals of their mana so that we can use our magic powers to make our mystical devices work.
