Survival? Pfft. Plenty of dogs and cats around.

And quinoa and passata ffs. I reckon they deserve some hardship.

Brick Wall Of course, silly me! That's why so many have been let in, ready to be the main course in the No Deal Brexit Feast.

Well done politicians, to have that foresight so many years ago. Thumbs Up

Can I cook DA on a spit then?

Food shortages are looking to shape up into a self-fulfilling prophecy though, at this rate Laughing
You were right: it'll be easier just to rob those who stockpile it.

There are going to be riots, it is going to be fun, the BBC and Sky News will have their helicopters out to provide coverage and I will make sure to have lots of weed to smoke whilst watching.

So far, our panic purchases include, 8 Fray Bentos Balti pies, 8 tins of corned beef, a big pack of Cadburys Smash and 3 tins of condensed milk.

Anyone else thinking about this?



Clearing out cupboards, I've just thrown out a Fray Benotos BBE 2013. Shocked

What was I thinking! With Brexit inflation, they'll be serving that at The Ivy.


......I did fix my mortgage and energy prices just before the vote and bought lots of bottled water and whey protein and powdered oats.....and tinned fish.

But eat that anyway.

Pasta guy: WTF? Where did it come from? Why just pasta and tomatoes? How many times has he had it up his arse?

Val - we're gonna hunt you down. I've eaten worse..

Why do you think he's had any of it up his arse?

Where did it come from? He stole it from somewhere. He's the modern day robin hood, steals from those who're pasta rich and gives to those who're penneless.

That's the problem. I do think it is sensible to have a stock of non-perishable stuff to last a few weeks as things settle down, however the stuff I'm buying isn't stuff we'd normally eat.

Which isn't a problem if the doomsday scenario of food shortages actually happens, we'd (all) just be glad of what we had in that situation.

However, if nothing happens and we've stockpiled all this stuff for nothing, we're going to spend weeks eating Fray Bentos pies, tinned curry and corned beef hash made with Cadbury's Smash just to get rid of it and free up the cupboard space. Sick

And before anyone suggests that we donate it to the needy Middle Finger
