Sorry to hear about the job loss @nolnocluap. At least it will give you some space to decide which direction you want to head in next.

Having the food stocks is so useful in situations like this. Fortunately I haven't been unemployed but I am self employed so we have periods of 'variable earnings'. Having our food preps has helped to smooth out the periods when that earnings variability has been more on a downward slope.

And it is a great way to rotate stocks and test out what you do and don't like! It would be most unfortunate if when the dark days come and you find you those 100 tins of whatever you bought at a bargain price turn out to quite uneatable!
