I am the poster child for a handful of food trends.  In fact, I often hang on to them long after they go out of fashion.  I am still annoyingly addicted to sriracha.  It shows in up in nearly all my mayo, many sauces, and I’ll dip anything in it.  You can be a poster child, or adult, for this next Call.  Here’s a chance to freely speak your mind.  Investigate…

NUTRITION

MREs now have a strong secondary market–doomsday preppers.  I don’t think that most people relish the idea of eating pre-packaged, processed military rations.  They have improved great (or so I’ve been told); pizza is even on the horizon.  However, I would think that preserving seeds, building hydroponic systems and farming fish would be better long-term solutions than MREs.  But then again, I’m not a doomsday prepper–so, what do I know?  This next Call wants your view on militarism, but I don’t think they are interested in the food options.  Take a look…
