What this episode covers
"You’ve probably heard the saying, ‘If you’re hungry enough, you’ll eat anything.’ But is that really true? Science, history, and even reality TV (Survivor, anyone?) tell a very different story. Food fatigue, psychological barriers, and digestive issues all prove that hunger alone isn’t enough to make people eat unfamiliar or unappetizing food—even in survival situations." "In this episode, I’m breaking down why this myth is dangerous for food storage planning and what you can do right now to make sure your food storage actually works for your family!"
