| Dim Witte <dakadldo2@gmail.com>: Mar 22 02:50PM -0700 Ever since the pandemic started and food stores were horded, I've heard a few say they have a freezer at home to store certain foods for long storage. Where I live, the apartment managers allow small freezers in pantries for an additional $5 a month rent, which I've ignored--until now. I read that lots of food you can freeze will last months, even years. Don't have a list with their freezer storage limits, but no doubt it could be rounded up. I particularly notice that some foods are becoming not only more expensive, but are going to be in short supply. Not even sure a small, apartment size freezer holds very much. Once upon a time I visited a commercial freezer renting spaces behind wire screens, but doubt that's a safe risk if foods gets scarce. In Alaska we commonly store food below ground or in a cache on stilts, which winter keeps okay. Below ground might get as low as 40 degrees F; in just a root cellar might be 60 F for storage of beets and potatoes. Up north, they have permafrost a couple feet below ground, so natural freezing exists. Alaska is a subsistence state, so we commonly store up fish by drying and smoking, just left hanging on lines. Canning is also popular. |
