Things to remember if veggies & fruits become scarce....

1.  Sugar will probably still be in plentiful supply.

 

2.  Skinny people are easy to kidnap

     Be safe.

Buy local and in-season.

The think I'm most worried about is lettuce. I can remember other times when it became scarce and the price went sky high. It's not like you can buy frozen or canned.

Popcorn actually has more antioxidants than both.

 

It's whole grain, and if you eat it plain or with a low-fat topping or two - very healthy.

Just make sure your popcorn is non-GMO...

 

I remember many years ago (when my husband was still alive, so about 25) there was a sign on the tomatoes in the supermarket; they were something like $5.49 a pound.  Under the price sign was another sign that read, "No, this is not a misprint."

That's funny!  I also remember many years ago being at the check out stand of a market and having the checker ask me if I realized an avocado I was purchasing was $3.50!
