Our Grandparents Were Preppers
Proactive planning (prepping) is an act of a responsible educated person or organization. My grandparents had a "root cellar" in the 1960's. Each summer I have wonderful memories of my brothers and me being conscripted as child slave labor on the back porch of their home. There we sat for hours snapping and trimming stems off of mountains of green beans that my Grandmother was canning to "put up for winter". Even into the late 1960's people shopped at the grocery store once a month, and filled their freezer and pantries with food for the month.
Now people stop for takeout every night on the way home or "grab something to heat up" on the way home from work. Few people under the age of 30 can truly fathom the fundamental change in the way we live since the advent of the Microwave Oven (originally introduced as a Radar Range). Over the ten or so years following the advent of the microwave oven American family social and eating habits were fundamentally altered forever (not for the better).
