Who here remembers Euell, the charismatic grape-nut commercial guy (their taste always reminded him of "wild hickory nuts")?
He has been living rent-free in my head since the talks of food shortages fired up. It may sound almost comical to the average food consumer at first, but pine trees really do have a lot of nutrition to offer, and Euell was no grape-"nut".
Ever Eat A Pine Tree? Euell Gibbons
I have a constant battle with the squirrel over the pine nuts, and they are brazen enough to drop the empty cones down on my head.
The Florida pine, I call them Dr. Seuss trees, make up over half of the woods on my property, the rest are Oak which I love, and the acorns are also nutritional and useful in a SHTF scenario.
I also have way too much Acacia, which a hate, but it is good for filling in the open spaces and providing a good privacy wall. I can thank my neighbor for the Acacia.
For every one person that read this post. About 7.99 billion have not.
Yet I still post.
