Howdy folks,
After a four year hiatus I'm finally updating the Prudent Food Storage
FAQ. At the moment I'm working on the Suppliers section. Since the
last update was back in '99 the number of suppliers who have faded
away or no longer deal in food storage related products was about what
I expected - large.
Before I finish with that section I want to canvas the field to see if
any new, worthy food storage related companies have popped up in the
world. Who are you folks ordering food or storage food related
equipment from?
I've got the usual players already Walton Feed, Emergency Essentials,
Lehmans, Cumberland General Store and so on. Any new storage food
dealers you like? New suppliers of bulk foods, dehydrated or freeze
dried foods, packaging, oxygen absorbers, desiccants, grain mills,
pressure canners, and so on? Send me their URL and I'll check them
out. With few exceptions if they don't have an Internet presence I
don't include them but something really good would be different.
Who do you like and why?
.....Alan.
I know this isn't the answer you were looking for, Alan, but in
addition to the ones you mentioned, I've found Sam's Club and local
health food stores to be a good source.

Oh, I quite agree. I don't order food online which is why I have to
Google the net, use reader contributions, and poll the readership to
find suppliers for the who folks who do choose the online option. I
do order equipment online, but that's somewhat different from food.
The problem with Googling the net is that anyone can put up a hot
looking web site. If you don't already know something of the company
their site doesn't tell you much so I much prefer to get input from
the readership if I can.
So, once again. What companies are you folks ordering storage food
from online?
Who do you buy your food preservation and storage equipment from
online?
......Alan.
