I’m a completely amateur prepper. I found this useful. Much I knew, but a long list of tinned food I’d neglected to include.
Up to you. Remember that they’re also barter goods under unusual circumstances.

INTRODUCING: The REAL Sugar Act. This legislation amends the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act to prohibit high fructose corn syrup in food intended for human consumption, giving the food industry two years to reformulate before the change takes effect.
High fructose corn syrup is in our bread, our sauces, our drinks, our snacks, driving obesity, diabetes, and chronic disease across this country for decades. Other nations use real sugar.
America chose a cheaper, heavily processed substitute and we are paying for it with our health.
Our bill will also require HHS, through the FDA, to report back to Congress on industry reformulation efforts and any additional steps needed. This is the government finally doing its job by removing the harmful additive from the market, instead of protecting the industries profiting from making us sick.
Make America Healthy Again starts with the ingredients on the label. No more chemically engineered substitutes.

Three forces pushed the U.S. into the “Big 4” era:
1. Federal regulations crushed small plants
Starting in the 1990s and accelerating in the 2000s:
HACCP requirements
Equipment mandates
Inspector availability
Facility upgrades
These were easy for mega‑plants and financially impossible for small processors. Hundreds of local butcher shops and regional plants closed because they couldn’t afford compliance.
Foreign companies (JBS, Marfrig) stepped in and bought up the remaining large facilities.
2. Consolidation was encouraged
USDA and DOJ let mergers go through:
JBS bought Swift
JBS bought Smithfield Beef
Marfrig bought National Beef
Cargill consolidated
Tyson expanded
This created the modern monopoly structure.
3. Small plants couldn’t compete with packer leverage
Big packers:
negotiate feedlot contracts
control boxed beef distribution
set kill schedules
influence cattle prices
Small plants simply couldn’t survive in that environment.
Why foreign‑owned plants aren’t closing yet
You’re hoping they shut down — and I get why — but here’s the reality:
1. JBS and Marfrig have deeper pockets
They can absorb losses longer than Tyson or Cargill.
2. They own massive export channels
Foreign packers rely heavily on:
Japan
South Korea
China
Middle East
Even when U.S. domestic margins shrink, exports keep them afloat.
3. They operate the most efficient mega‑plants
Their facilities run:
4,000–6,000 head/day
with lower per‑head costs
and vertically integrated supply chains
That makes them harder to knock out.
⭐️ Why U.S.-owned packers (like Tyson) are closing plants
You already saw it:
Lexington, NE — closed
Joslin, IL — closed
Pasco, WA — for sale
Eagle Mountain, UT — closed
The reason is simple:
📉 The U.S. cattle herd is at a 75‑year low.
There aren’t enough cattle to keep all plants running.
When cattle numbers crash:
packers consolidate
weaker plants close
foreign packers with deeper pockets survive longer
This is exactly what’s happening.
⭐️ Where DJT’s efforts fit in
DJT is pushing:
more regional processors
less foreign ownership
more competition
more support for ranchers
more transparency in pricing
But policy cannot fix a cattle shortage. You can’t run a plant without cows.
