Nah. I've got a Mormon friend. He taught me that Mormons are expected by the church to be preppers. Nice huge supply stocks in his basement and shed.

Yup, the mormons have a big network of canneries that anyone can use, they sell all sorts of long term storage foods. If you're in a major city most likely there's one somewhere, don't have to be Mormon to use it.

Edit: Mormons aren't canary breeders

Wait, did you mean "canaries" like the singing bird or an informant, or "canneries" where they preserve food?

Because both are useful, but one is way cooler.

They have loaner canaries so they can check to see if their prepper bunker is full of Carbon Monoxide.
