What I have issue with is the concept of some cataclysmic event or global upheaval and selling the idea of survival seeds: http://www.survivalseedsonline.com/
So according to the site: “Save Seeds from this year to plant next year... FOREVER!”

Sure, if you want to live off of corn and peas…FOREVER! The problem I see is that most of those veggies in the basket that the little girl in survival mode is holding happen to be biennials.

So let’s assume after this global food shortage, political upheaval and cataclysmic event that we are 1) still in a permissive environment 2) the conditions will even allow for growing your own food 3)we crack open that SHTF can o’ seeds timed perfectly right at the start of growing season:

The family feeds off of spam until the veggies grow. Then they only eat half of what grows because they need to leave the other half of the biennials in the ground to produce seeds the NEXT YEAR that they can plant the FOLLOWING YEAR. That’s also assuming that the SHTF can o’ seeds that’s been sitting on the shelf germinates the majority of what you put in the ground, and you are lucky enough to live in a temperate zone that doesn’t kill the biennial plants off in the winter. That girl in the picture will be three years older by the time she’s eating second generation veggies. In this day and age…three years of political chaos, complete global technology stoppage, food shortages and meltdown? Don’t forget that someone will need to lock and load and stand vigilant guard over the victory garden to watch the plants grow and protect them from the looters that weren’t as prepared as those with the seeds.

I’m all for home grown food, and what you are doing at home is absolutely excellent! I just think selling the concept of “survival seeds” to utilize when SHTF is a scam and is completely preying on people’s fears.

Fucking A, Bro. I just assumed you knew what I was talking about.

sorry bro

here's another good one though from that site, and it's my favorite so far:

“22) Rossa Bianca Eggplant – Stunning Italian heirloom, beautiful fruits are prized by chefs. Very meaty 4-6 inch round fruits, mild flavor and almost never bitter. Well suited for all of your cooking needs, great for Eggplant Parmisiana. 80 days from transplant. 50 seeds per seed bank.”

I suppose we could make the so-called “parmisiana” from our survival cows. What do you say we kill that survival cow and you and I could have some big assed survival steaks!!

It takes 2 weeks to shit an entire cow, according to my ex-wife's yoga instructor.

I'm good 'til President's Day 2117.

rgr! can't out of respect and mutual admiration...retired 5th SFG to one side of me and retired XVIII ABN across the street...we'd probably wind up cross loading ammo, fortifying the perimeter and sharing our steaks if SHTF. We'll have a cold one waiting for you too!

As you might suspect, this move is the “final solution” of Monsanto, DuPont and other seed-domination corporations who have long admitted their goal is the complete domination of all seeds and crops grown on the planet. By criminalizing the private growing of vegetables — thereby turning gardeners into criminals — EU bureaucrats can finally hand over full control of the food supply to powerful corporations like Monsanto.

Most heirloom seeds to be criminalized
Nearly all varieties of heirloom vegetable seeds will be criminalized under this proposed EU law. This means the act of saving seeds from one generation to the next — a cornerstone of sustainable living — will become a criminal act.

So what might happen if Round Up seed yields plummet and nothing else will grow in the contaminated ground........Tinfoil speculation
