Incidentally, here's a prepper tip my daughter gave me a few years ago. It's possible to put dry beans (2/3C) in a pint jar, add water to 1" headspace and put the jars in a pressure canner for 75-85 min. (I mix black beans, black-eyed-peas and garbanzos and a tbsp of a custom chili-powder mix.)
She hooked me with this scenario: say the shat has hat the finn AND it's below-freezing AND there's a sleet blizzard AND the only firewood is two miles uphill both directions AND there's only one match left AND "It sure would be _easier_ if %somebody% had thought AHEAD and we could just eat cooked beans, cold, out of a jar." I converted every dry bean I could find into ready-to-eat, and now I have some to trade for freeze-dried cheese, if I could figure out how much beans for which parts cheese. I assume the good will have died young as they do, and the rest of us that are left will thus be the dregs of the race with predictable consequences so "trading" might be wishful thinking.
I hate the scenario you described...but great tip on the beans....I've got lots of stuff to trade if necessary...mostly dairy 😂 jk Iots of other stuff too..
😂 Those aren't for me. My husband loves them....
...and you--clearly--love your husband.
