My grandpa in Tulsa kept 40 jars of canned peaches in 1979, and I finally understand why
He lived through the Dust Bowl and never threw out a single jar lid, which I used to think was just old man hoarding. Last week my neighbor Chuck paid $9 for one jar of peaches at the Kroger on 15th and said it was the last one on the shelf. That made me look at my own pantry and realize I had three cans of soup and a bag of rice, so I spent $85 at the farmer's market on Saturday fixing that. How many jars do you all keep on hand before you feel like you're actually ready?

Oh man, forty jars is wild. Did your grandpa actually eat all of them or were some still sitting there years later, like did he have a rotation going?
