When the wife asks you why you are saving all the plastic spoon sets with napkins for.
When people say you sure got a lot of camping gear. I tell them it's for the big camp out coming.
When a gun purchase is solely dependent on how much ammo you can get for it.

[WARGEAR]

If your bed frame consists of MRE cases and bottled water.............

[rockman7]

if all your family hates coming to your house for thanksgiving because you always pick that day to swap out your stores of MRE's for fresher ones

[Big Dog]

When you buy groceries based on calories per serving,
and on the fact it needs no refrigeration!

(Hint: DON'T put you Smart Balance Natural Peanut Butter in the fridge - it gets HARD!)

When you shop at four different stores in one shopping trip, so 'they' don't see you stocking up on massive amounts of stuff at one place.

Hahaha!

When you buy your canned foods based on how good they tastes cold.

[codeNshoot]

NO ONE has enough purification tablets to clean up Lake Erie. I'd eat the worms I fish with before I cooked my day's catch.
When you have more fireSticks than trees in your yard.

When you've stripped down the inside-rear of your Land Rover to make more room for "bug out" supplies.

When your refrigerator has several shelves dedicated to the "final dry" for beef and salmon jerky.

When the second freezer in your storage room is unplugged and used to store extra ammo/guns/gun supplies.

When you see spam on sale.... Your mouth begins to water.

When you believe corned beef hash is the "food-of-the-gods".

The sight and thought of fried mealworms makes you hungry.

No matter how great that fillet mignon looks on the store shelf, the only thing you can think of is how good the jerky will be when it's dried. (to the horror of your Wife).

You buy ammo weekly as avaliable.

When your kids see a cow in a field, the first words out of their mouths is: MEAT!

When the first thought going through your mind after passing a "road kill" is "how fresh is it?"

You're not horrified by the "fresh roadkill" thought.

You see someone with an MRE on T.V. and you're envious.

When you consider horses, dogs and cats as "food rations"

Your family thinks your joking about eating the pets, but you're not.

When you've tried "dried daphnia" fish food to see if it's a viable seasoning.

You are not repulsed at the thought of eating a dog biscuit.

You are not repulsed while eating a dog biscuit.

You are not repulsed by the fact that you want a second dog biscuit.

[thrillbilly]

Hey those green dog biscuits aren't bad! Don't like the meat-flavored ones though.

[Dragunov]

Couple more......

You *KNOW FOR A FACT* that crows, old geese, gar and fresh water mussels from the river tastes like *CRAP*, but you will eat them anyway.

You've went through the trouble of clipping out the ribs in a snapping turtles shell to get to that tenderloin piece.

)guilty!(

[telkev]

If you are worried if you have enough dryer lint or belly button lint to start fires with.

[Big Dog]

Your yard landscaping takes into account "Defensive Fire Zones"!
Your long driveway is equipped with range flags.
Your wife's flowerbeds conceal edible veggies amongst the flowers!
Your decorative 'Koy Pond' is stocked with eating-sized catfish!
You have steel trash cans full of livestock corn in your outbuilding - and you have NO livestock.

[Dragunov]

[sea_chicken1]

[Roper1911]

If you know EXACTLY how much sand is required to stop a .30-06,
If you have ever eaten coyote meat just to see how it tastes,
If you like coyote meat so much you keep 'yote jerky in your glove box.
