Yup.  I'm still working on it but only trees really work for me,
though I get other things in smaller amounts.  Lettuce and green
onions equal to our needs.  Most years lots of bell peppers.

The United States imports about 15% of its food supply or

Why not?  People sure used to.  100 years ago, poor people didn't
have a food-stamps card.  Grow it yourself, or starve.

Does this ditz really think that increasing food prices can be

Anyways, I join here to talk food related items, not trade insults.
I'll end the thread with Cindy because no one wants to see that, me

PS: Oh, here Cindy has us importing only 15%, elsewhere she has us
importing a whole lot more, maybe she went for *all imports*, not just
food? She leaves us guessing as no link.  No matter but that's why mine
came with links and were clearly just food.
