FOOD SECURITY FOR THE FAINT OF HEART, is about being aware of your potential for culinary self-sufficiency in emergency situations—whether in the context of a freak snowstorm, earthquake, or hurricane.
Advice is offered on stockpiling basics, smart water collecting, various food preparation and storage techniques, and gardening as a way to maintain a renewable food supply. Wheeler presents an interesting commentary on North American culinary tendencies, such as the habit of living on processed foods, which makes this an especially resourceful read for any urban dweller.
