THIS JUST IN...

I received this information from the stake...

Macey's has wheat at 50 pounds for $6.78 or less than half the Bishop's store house prices. Blue Chip brand has been sold and this is apparently the clearance of their inventory. {While you are there check out all the other Blue Chip products on sale. You can get cans of dehydrtated vegetables at half price too, in the storage center} This is a wonderful opportunity to introduce cookies and pancakes made with whole wheat flour and get everyone's body used to the healthy and/or survival type diet. ..depends on how you look at it! :)

This means you can make a loaf of bread for about 15 cents a loaf! Now you can get enough to extend or complete your 12 week supply or even your one year supply of survival food, at about $14 per 100 pounds or $56 for a years supply for one person. Would you spend $14 now to give your child or yourself a loaf of bread every day for 3 months when things are not so prosperous? A years supply for a family of 5 for survival is only $280!

If you have followed the prophets and already have your years supply, this is an easy way to put a little aside to share in troubled times when others may be very needy.

What will 100 pounds of wheat make?

What can be produced with 100 pounds of wheat. Measurements are approximate.

100 #'s wheat = 17 #10 cans

1 # 10 can of wheat = 6 #'s or 14 cups of wheat
1 # 10 can wheat = 21 cups of flour
1 # 10 can wheat = 7 large loaves of raised bread (7x17=119 Loaves!) Make 90 loaves and this leaves 4 cans for the other things below.
1 # 10 can wheat = 10-12 loaves of "quick" bread
1 # 10 can wheat = 10 batches of pancakes (15-4" size pancakes per batch)
1 # 10 can wheat = 10 batches of biscuits
1 # 10 can wheat = 10 batches of chocolate chip cookies
Just multiply 17 by the number of loaves of bread, pancakes, cookies, etc. and that is what can be produced with 100 pounds of wheat.
Or multiply by 67 to see what you can make with the 400 pounds of wheat ( $56 ) the church recommends for survival.
