Like this.... it's starting "A genius throws a Molotov cocktail and soon realizes that he's going to die choking in a maze of smoke and flame. A hero drinks a Molotov cocktail and soon realizes that if he does a split in midair, he can hit twice as many zombies per kick. Drunk hero wins again, wusses." ~Cracked.com |

I can't even remember for sure when I last ate any bacon at all. I think it might have been about a year ago or thereabouts. And pig meat, also infrequently, at least lately. It's mostly poultry for me nowadays. Pork ranks between beef (higher) and fish (lower) on my personal meat preference scale. Sure, it's somewhat tasty, but, meh, not something I'd actually bother to put on my shopping list, nor feel attracted to it when I see it in a store. http://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/User:Akita_T http://eve-search.com/stats/Akita_T T2 BPO poll : https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=114789 |

Oh shiiiiiiit...
There goes the neighborhood...
Personally, I don't believe any of this end-of-the-world crap. And even if it is to be believed, few seem to realize that the Myan calendar was not synchronized with ours. Their 2012 was sometime in the 1960's on our calendar, wasn't it?
Though now that I mentioned it, a lot of ancient ruins and mythology and historical documents occasionally reference modern technology in some vague way... kinda creepy... This is my signature. There are many like it, but this one is mine. |

I put my money on the world ending (or coming close) on current events.
China vs Japan over a few islands, Iran vs Israel in the middle east coming to a head rapidly and the rest of the middle east going mad with protests about who to side with.
And then theres NATO, here we are, stuck in the middle with you... nukes to the west of, nukes to the right stuck in the middle with you!

Oh man. This not only affects bacon, but also supplies of ham, bratwurst, pepperoni, salami, lard, etc., etc. Spam will probably be OK, I doubt there are any imported Euro hogs in that stuff. Anyway, I'd recommend stocking up on this this while it's still available. |

Personnally, I don't care what kind of meat it is as long it came from an animal or fish. With exceptions to endangered species. Now don't get me wrong, if those creatures were not endangered, i'd eat them or atleast see what they tasted like.
I like going to vegan parties with assorted meats party platters and other varies forms of meat including BBQ, veal, lamb, and crawdads. Sometimes I'll take regular burgers and tell them it's vegan and see which ones notice the difference. Of course I ask if they are allergic to anything first.
Yea, PETA and I do not get along too well.
Now, on to the end of the world... that's not gonna happen. Theories are good for entertainment on the subject but ultimately it's not gonna happen. If it does, I hope live through the event and live in a primitive post apocalyptic society. My survival skills need to be tested! Stick around. I'm full of bad ideas. ~Isaac Clarke |

Actually we might be a bit closer than we think. A lot of the middle east governments subsidize food and also import a lot of their food. With the current US drought hitting farmers hard, food exports are going to be down which will raise prices. And the US exports a *lot* of food, something like 45% of its wheat. Compounding issues would be weak middle eastern economies and high unemployment, especially among the youth. Last time there was a mild spike in food prices, things got a bit tense. This time around it's probably going to be much worse.
If this causes a spike in oil prices (using the revenue to import food,) then that will cause another corresponding spike in food prices which could affect even the western countries.
Ask yourself this, if Something Happens(tm) and your local grocery store was unable to receive food shipments for a week or two, what would you do for food? Especially if you live in a big city...

Spot on.
About 3-4 years ago I read an article about the price of subsidized bread in Egypt. The price was going up. Two years later we have protests against the Egyptian government, which resulted in removal of old government. The bottom line is that Egypt has a lot of problems, I realize that. The price of subsidized food going up was just one of several issues. But when enough of these problems pile up, BOOM!
So yeah. Expect more economical, political and social unrest. Life is short and dinner time is chancy Eat desert first! |

Especially if you live in a big city... Right now, I have enough not-so-easily-spoiled supplies in the fridge and pantry to last for me and my wife at least two weeks with our current "slightly lose weight" kilocalories intake level and no nutritional deficiencies, maybe three weeks with stricter rationing... plus enough vitamins and such to compensate for fresh veggies and other spoilable produce for at least that much too. By the way, that's not disaster preparedness or anything like that, it's just the way we shop (probably, more importantly, how we eat) lately. Plus, we could both use some extra weight loss (me far more than her - I personally could most likely survive for nearly half a year with just water and the bare minimum of nutrients to avoid critical health problems, on negligible amounts of eaten calories). I'd be far more concerned with a lack of electricity (for the fridge) and clean water, to be honest, if we're ONLY talking a few weeks of shortages, not outright breakdown of modern society. Also, even if cars also broke down, I could go on foot and walk leisurely to either one of my grandparent's villages in two days tops (my father's mother still lives and works the pretty large garden there, and the basement is chock-full of potatoes, apples, corn and such, and there's quite a few live chicken too ; on my mother's side, while the grandparents are long dead, there's still a few cousins and more distant relatives living there, and a few have at least a large garden). And then there's also always the wife's grandparents, but those are a bit further and respectively much further away on foot.

Replace that first thing with unexplained cabal of scientists discovering some unnamed method to (seemingly) permanently shut down all un-specially-shielded electric devices on the entire planet, then replace the second part with completely staying silent about it as it's actually set into motion, then the last part with going to the countryside to act as some sort of small unofficial leader in a new village for 15 years while the world goes to crap (as not even batteries seem to work anymore, and somehow people also forgot how to do coal/steam-based engines too, let alone mechanical-only diesel combustion), and you just got the opening plot of the new series called "Revolution" on NBC (only 2 episodes aired so far, starting 10 days ago).

Step 1) Buy seeds for some sort of food plant.
Step 2) Buy gun
Step 3) Fight for land nearby (as near as I can get) and start growing a farm.
Step 4) Live off the land.
