dot com all right today i am talking about the foods that will disappear off the shelf first now this is firsthand experience we've just been through covid19 i did several videos on the coming shortages stores are stocked back up now and i want to talk to you about the first things that are going to leave the shelves number one ramen noodles now i thought this was absolutely crazy but every single time for the last six months that i have been to the store there has been a shortage of ramen noodles so if you find them pick them up grab them get yourself a good stockpile of them now why ramen noodles you'll say well those aren't worth anything well here's the thing they are super easy super quick super handy food to have on hand especially if you get the ramen noodles in a cup for 30 cents you've got a meal that will tide you over all you have to do is pour boiling water over the top you don't even have to dirty a bold put it in ramen noodles are super easy to fix and it's really good to have something like that on hand to make meal prepping easy in the times of an emergency the next one is macaroni and cheese once again super easy to fix you can use dry milk you don't even have to have the butter in it you could just add a quarter of a cup extra milk in there to make your macaroni and cheese but once again it's a super easy fast almost no cook meal i mean you gotta boil the noodles but it is a fairly easy quick meal to make for your family dry milk box milk any kind of milk milk has been in short supply when it comes to the storage prepping type milk so your boxed milks your canned milks your dry milks all of those you want to make sure you have a good stockpile on milk they are one of the first things to go canned fruit i was kind of shocked but the canned fruit aisle at the grocery store for the last six months every time i go to the grocery store it has been almost empty or empty every single time i've gone there's been either just a few cans left or just a little bit so stock up on your canned fruit when you can find it that is going to be another food that's easy just pop over in the can you don't have to cook it you don't have to prepare it you can just open a can and just eat the can of fruit right out of the can you don't even have to dirty a dish if you don't want to mashed potatoes this is another one you know the boxed mashed potato flakes is what i'm talking about specifically those potato flakes are great prepper foods aside from just making mashed potatoes you can add them in soups or stews as a thickener you can add them to gravies and sauces as a thickener and it will make the mashed potato site taste really good but give you more bulk in your food so you don't have to add the milk or anything like that i make gluten-free mashed potatoes by using chicken broth instead of milk so all you have to do is just sprinkle a little bit of mashed potatoes in with your juices from your meats or your soups or your stews or whatever and that will give you some bulk and give you extra calories to help sustain life if you need to canned chilies once again this is one that has been off the shelf for quite a while um i'll go to the grocery store in the morning and i can usually find it in the mornings if i go to the grocery store but in the evenings in the afternoons if i have to go it's usually totally sold out super easy you don't have to heat it to eat it you could just eat it straight out of the can if you want you don't have to do any cooking or prep work or anything you can just heat it up and eat it or just eat it straight out of the can if you really needed to noodles spaghetti noodles pasta noodles any kind of noodles that you just boil these keep going out of stock so make sure you're stocked up on your needles needles well you need some needles too but on your noodles so then you can once again have a quick boil your dinner type food minute rices now rice is a really good thing to stock up on but you do have to cook it i would get minute rice where you just basically have to pour boiling water to reconstitute the rice and have some of that on hand easy almost no prep meal i mean you could heat water on a rocket stove if you needed to to pour into the minute rice but there's no cooking nothing like that make it super easy to have a quick dinner especially something like minute rice with some chili poured on top that would be a quick and easy dinner canned soups the canned soup pile still keeps getting completely wiped out now i've never quite understood why people use canned soup for prepping that much i mean it's okay for a little bit but soup doesn't really fill you up that much or have that many calories usually now if you get a chunky type soup that has more calories and you put that over some rice or mashed potatoes something like that just if you don't have milk or whatever to fix your mashed potatoes just add extra water to your soup and then just sprinkle in some mashed potatoes to the thickness that you want now don't do too much start out with just a little bit let them absorb the moisture and then do a little bit more because those things will bulk up real quick but canned soup off the shelf right away it's great to have some of those on hand just for once again quick and easy meals canned tomatoes is another one so you can use canned tomatoes for italian seasoning of like noodles that kind of thing you can use it for chilies you can use it in soups and stews canned tomatoes are one thing that goes really quick but once again they're good for flavoring but they don't have many calories so if you're sustaining life you want to look for your higher calorie foods and not your lower calorie foods because you're going to need that energy now these last two aren't really necessities but for the last six months since the supposed pandemic has hit they have not been on the shelves it's absolutely crazy the first one is drink flavorings so you know the little drink flavorings that you add to your water okay these are not by any stretch of the imagination a necessity i don't even know why people are i couldn't find out why people are buying them so much but guys in 95 90 95 of the united states you can drink the water without needing to flavor it now i know i'm gonna get comments well i live in x and i can't drink the water okay that's fine if that's where you live and you truly cannot gag down the water although i think if you're in a desperate situation you will be able to then go ahead and get something like the drink flavorings i have lived in those places i've lived in texas i've lived in kansas i totally understand nasty drinking water i get it but it needs to be really bad for you to waste money on flavorings to put in your waters and last but not least paper towels it has been six months paper towels still are not in stock i have no idea what the obsession with americans and paper towels is i really don't i use one roll of paper towels a year and that's doing all my cleaning for the year i mean i use about two paper towels to clean the bathroom each time and then one or two to clean my windows and that's it otherwise we use rags paper towels are not a necessity you can use cut up t-shirts you can use cut up bath towels cut up sheets diapers old cloth diapers anything like that you can just get wash racks just buy yourself a pack of washer eggs but paper towels are not a necessity but they keep going out of stock all the time so those are the things that are gonna go the
