Can you describe the rehydrating process & good preparation ideas & recipes?

Rehydrating meat is easy. Place the freeze dried meat (raw or cooked) in a bowl of warm or hot water. Don't worry about over-hydrating it — your freeze dried meat will only reabsorb the liquid it needs, it will never become soggy. Once it's rehydrated, pat it dry with a paper towel.

Recipes? Same as with any other recipe for steak.

Easy peasy, eh? 😊

I am always skeptical of information when the person denouncing one product is making money from an alternative. I found out one prominent Substacker was quietly hustling Ivermectin in every post without disclosing to his readers that he was being paid to do it. I quit that Substack. I do not buy gold or survival products for that reason. Unfortunately even some great doctors are now selling supplements that have yet to be proven effective. If I am to recommend a certain source for information to a normie and their first review of that information yields evidence of selling alternatives that person will question my credibility. It would be good if people listed their disclosures on their articles.

Good to know - though as a vegetarian what I need to worry about is their plans for carrots.

Lab grown meat isn't any more disgusting than freeze dried steak.

Have you eaten either?

I have eaten freeze dried steak. If you have quality food that is freeze dried it tastes the same as if it was fresh.

Most times my dried meat is eaten just as that, dried aka jerky or pemmican. I dry my meat at home and don't have access to freeze dried meat. other than the bits which have freezer burn from inadequate packaging and long storage ;) I have had dried meat in the past as a child, cooked as stews etc. All perfectly good, unlike any kind of 'lab grown 'meat-like-product' ' which by its very nature cannot have the qualities of any kind of Meat.

Not as much as you have.

Notice the common elements: 'they' are selling you something which is very likely harmful now or in the not-disrant future; getting a clear answer to a direct question on that is seldom forthcoming; instead you get denial or misdirection or outright lies; they also seek to limit independent information that would reflect the truth; they outright obfuscate on the contents reported on the packaging; so you sensibly decide to have zero contact with such products. Then reproduce that with regard to 'news' reporting; the disinformation (outright lies) in institutional narratives continues, escalates, metastasizes to steadily worse outcomes; leading many to distrust most institutions, virtually all politicians, your doctor; & most media (news, movies, documentaries).

The irony is that this is not paranoia or excessive distrust. This is what you have to do to get the truth & to keep you & your family safe. Can this continue, is it 'sustainable' as they like to say? No, it isn't, it's clearly unhealthy. We'll likely start seeing a muted level of PTSD, most of us are likely feeling it already. A Catch-22 in the short-term, but soon things will have to shift.

Hmm, not interested in eating freeze dried tumors mass produced by slowly draining the blood of comatose cows. 🐂
