Short post today. Hey, even Jesus rested on the 7th day - right?
*sip of morning coffee*
I found a cool link yesterday on Kilo Igloo Tango’s blog - oops, I mean Kilo India Tango’s (Kit) blog. It’s a photo series of different families across the world pictured with one week’s worth of food.
A family in the United States:
Looks like a lot of junk food. Follow the link below for the interesting photo series and see other families from other countries pictured with what they call a week’s worth of food.

BTW: I’ve begun adding digital, pdf Army Field Manual files to the SHTFblog “bookstore”. Yeah, some of them you can find for free if you scour the internet looking for them. I figured I’d toss them up there anyway, because why not? It’s better than putting a “donate” button on the blog. Those buttons rarely yield funds, and having me beg for daily donations isn’t healthy for either of us. Yeah, I keep the blog up for the fun of it, but loose change in compensation is always cool. Check the store out right here. I’ll be adding more pdf files over the week, and I’ll soon be adding more paperback versions. Buy something if you want - or not. Either way, they’re there.
Have a rockin’ Sunday.

LOL Dragon. RangerMan you are correct on the junk food comment. There is only 2 gallons of milk yet cases of pop and many jugs of Fructose based fruit drinks. With 2 teen aged boys I can under stand this some what but my god those kids are being sugered to death. My wife and I drink 5 to 6 gallons of milk a week now…..

Mine would be a combination of the German family colliding into the American one. We do eat too much crap.
I wonder if anybody is looking at it trying to figure out how to stockpile 20 years worth of Domino’s?

Two tomatos, a bunch of grapes, and the rest is crap…. I’ll admit an addiction to Pepsi, but still…

The Kwuaiti family’s food looks closest to how my family of 7 eats. It still looks like closer to 2 weeks worth though.

Wow…regarding the US photo of the diabetic black family. Rumor has it the father died of a heart attack shortly after the pic was taken.
I don’t know about the rest of you, but I’ve seen some FAT people in the US that consume so much junk food the photo would require a panoramic camera.
Interesting to see such a variety. Some folks have nutrition honed to a science. Looks like eating healthy is more affordable too.
I look forward to some springtime victory garden posts Rangerman.

WOW. I budget 275.00 for 2 week family of 4. The black american family spends almost 700.00 every two weeks. And to think I thought I was spending to much on food. I’m still planning a garden to save some money.
