The big question preppers ask—how long can you survive without food? The answer is more chilling than most people want to admit. When times are stable, food is almost invisible. You eat three meals a day, snack when you want, maybe even waste some. But in a crisis, the illusion shatters. Food becomes currency. Food becomes leverage. Food becomes life or death.
