Big Deal Argument

Food Really Is a Big Deal
Reality survival shows dramatize food and its procurement. They make it a priority, because the viewers place such incredible emphasis on food. The reality stars are in no danger of starving, but they know that the viewers want to see them forage for food, because anyone watching has already put themselves in the place of the stars, what if it was I, lost and hungry? It's Joe and Dave charging off after boar, turkeys and porcupines and whatever else has fur or feathers. Its drama, it sells advertising, but even though it's a reality show it is not reality.
What is this article all about, will it tell us how to find food, how to forage, how to get a renewable and sustainable food source developed. No, it is about how the mind works, how priorities get

Your mind can either break you or make you in a survival situation. We are always hungry when food is not available.
Anyone that has read survival manuals, read the blogs or visited a survival/prepping website know that the rule of three states that you can live three weeks or even longer without food. However, you can only live three days or even less in some cases, without water, and yet facts matter little, when you find yourself lost or stranded, when facing financial hardships at home or are facing a poor harvest on the homestead.
It is how the human mind works, plain and simple, and why is this. One reason is that nature does provide us with water on a regular basis in many parts of the world. It rains, rivers flow, snow caps melt and lakes rise, so our minds tell us water is not that big of a deal, its everywhere, right. It falls from the sky ready for consumption, while food has to be raised and grown, bought at the store, hunted, cooked, and preserved for future
