That's because these people do not want to actually live this way. They are cosplayers. They want to buy $50 worth of freeze dried food and go to McDonald's.
Your grandmother learned to live like that because she had no choice. That's what growing up in the Depression will do to you. No grandma would ever have freeze dried ice cream. Better learn how to milk a cow! Free milk, cream, and butter every day. But it's not easy.
Obviously if you don't live somewhere where you can have a cow, freeze dried is required or else you'll die in around 96 hours. That's the average amount of time someone can survive without ice cream, which I'm sure you're aware
That's why Japan lost in WWII. No ice cream ships. The US was sensible enough to send ice cream ships with their fleets.
The humanity!
Yeah my goal will be to wipe out all knowledge so we can maybe do something different... we are already at odds friend
