Yeah my dude, I'd almost venture to say that you are the outlier here (echo/bubbles, yay!). For many that I know, food is an on-demand lazy loaded resource. Sure, sometimes they buy groceries (usually when they run out of pop-tarts) ... But the odd day when they actually cook dinner, it's a trip to the store for just those ingredients that are necessary.
Is it horribly wasteful and inefficient? yes. Does that get factored into the equation? no.
- rndmize 9y agoEfficiency aside, that feels like awful planning to me. Growing up in the Bay Area, the threat of a significant earthquake has been ever-present. My family always had several dozen bottles of water and a reasonable amount of canned/jarred/dried food around.
- rabboRubble 9y agoYeah, but do you want that sort of food when you are sick? Plus I don't dig into my emergency supplies when there are other options available.
- 0xfeba 9y agoYou need to rotate your supplies.
- rabboRubble 9y agoI put a note into my calendar with the expiry dates for the rations. I eat the rations when I have purchased a replacement. Emergency food is emergency food.
- CodeCube 8y agoYep! It's terrible planning ... but that doesn't take away from the fact that it's an absolute reality for a ton of people.
