The Coming Food Crisis May Look Nothing Like a Crisis Until it’s Too Late

Just after the morning deliveries and before the first customers, a supermarket looks both ordinary and slightly deceptive. The lights are on, the coolers hum, and the shelves hold exactly what they held last week. Strawberries show up in February, lettuce comes from ground that was desert two generations ago, and on the same shelf beef raised across three states sits beside bread baked from grain cut a thousand miles away. Someone pushing a cart through the whole store can finish the errand without once wondering how any of it got there. [Read More]

First 50 Foods in the Amish Pantry That Almost Never Expire - Forgotten Survival Secrets Most People No Longer Know

Cut into a slope behind my great-grandfather’s house, closed with a door you had to stoop to enter, sat a cellar that stayed cold into July. Nine people ate out of that hole in the ground for most of a year, and nobody in the family thought it strange. Sacks of wheat leaned against the wall in the dark. A crock of lard waited under a cloth. Jars of honey had gone the color of old amber, and a few of them, I suspect, were older than my mother. Not one container down there carried a printed date, and not one jar appeared to care. [Read More]

They are Killing the Farmers And Nobody is Asking Why

Editor’s Note

What follows is assembled from verified documentation: bankruptcy filings from U.S. federal courts, European Union parliamentary records, United Nations agricultural reports, audio recordings of farmer protests in Brussels and The Hague, and interviews published in agricultural trade publications and regional newspapers between 2024 and 2026. I have confirmed every statistic through primary sources, every quote through multiple recordings, every name through official documents. Some individuals requested anonymity—not from government retribution, but from banks holding their mortgages and corporations controlling their seed supply. Others insisted their names appear in full. They want their testimony preserved. [Read More]

USDA’s No GMO Label Doesn’t Mean No Genetic Engineering

A food package carries no bioengineered disclosure. Does that mean no genetic engineering went into the food?

No. USDA’s bioengineered food disclosure standard leaves entire categories of genetically engineered foods and ingredients outside mandatory disclosure.

Easing restrictions on natural substances with credible histories of safe use makes sense. Yet natural products face persistent calls for tighter regulation, alongside efforts to suppress truthful information about their benefits.

Meanwhile, novel technologies that fundamentally alter our food are riding a wave of deregulation - even as their implications demand rigorous scrutiny and full transparency.

These priorities are backwards. [Read More]

The Frighteningly Accurate Predictions the 1973 Movie “Soylent Green” Made About the 2020s


Watching Soylent Green in 2026 is an odd, uncomfortable experience. While the movie is already supposed to be off-putting, realizing that some of its darkest predictions have become reality in recent years makes the experience rather surreal.

What’s stranger is that the movie takes place in exactly 2022, which is around the time some of these predictions have materialized in real life. And, although we’re far from the film’s catastrophic scenario, we’re clearly being pushed in that direction through careful social engineering. [Read More]

Study Links Ultraprocessed Foods to Cognitive Decline; Processed Meat Shows Strongest Association

A study published in the American Journal of Public Health found that older adults who consume higher amounts of ultraprocessed foods (UPFs) face an increased risk of cognitive impairment and dementia, with processed meat showing the strongest association among food categories, according to the report.

The findings add to a growing body of evidence linking highly processed foods to brain health deterioration, researchers said. According to the study, which analyzed data from the Health and Retirement Study, participants with higher UPF intake had significantly greater risk of both cognitive impairment with no dementia (CIND) and dementia.
