Suspect Bucket posted:Yeah, but a lot of these things you can grow in containers. It's fun, and really gives people perspective on how hard growing food really is. I think it's important that everyone try and grow their own produce at some point. Living in Hawaii is a perfect opportunity to learn, as I hear every season is growing season out there. I recall reading plans where people planted small herb gardens by cutting into and using bags of potting soil. Don't have any links at hand though. Always struck me as a small scale way to get introduced to the wonders of trying to keep pests off your food.

MAKE NO BABBYS posted:Does anyone have a good app for keeping track of what you have on hand in fridge/freezer/pantry? Or is a note on my iphone the best? How do you all deal? I think a lot of this problem would be making sure you're continuously updating inventory as things get used and as you add in from shopping. I know some of my friends have been using Alexa to maintain shopping lists since the ease of use is speaking out a command. I do not myself though: I like the concept, just not a constantly-on microphone going to Amazon. I hope someone answers you with a better app, as I have the same question.

I searched over the thread for a somewhat related topic: food storage. A lot of references to containers and storage, but not a lot on effective storage guides for kilos of rice or beans or onions. Having food storage for a month seems like a good idea, especially in cold climates where you might get snowed in or as at the start of US COVID where stores were just flat running out of stuff or closed. I sort of don't want to be replacing containers often. Or I would if they were inexpensive enough or reusable for nonfood purposes.

It's how I store my flour, rice, beans, sugar, etc. They're handy and rodent proof, and they store away easy because they stack. They might be more expensive than disposable storage up-front, but in the long term they'll save you tons of money. This is exactly the kind of thing I was looking for! Thanks. Gonna take awhile to digest all their options. Seems geared for food services' regulation too.
