      Canada has maple syrup reserves. We could be heading towards some sort of pancake crisis.

      Well seeing butter prices here in Slovakia I can understand why this isn’t a joke .

      Understandable

      Whenever I forget to buy butter and eat DRY bread, I get triggered and feel like I’m still behind the iron curtain (I was born in 2004)

      In the other hand – how long it is possible to storage butter?

      I presume it is anyway salted and deep frozen, but still – one year? 5 years?

      I saw a Spanish cheese in LIDL called “gran reserva”. so Spain has cheese reserve?

      Fun fact: Poland has been buying a lot of gold lately and owns over 420t of it which is more than UK lol

      Still less bizarre than the 635029318 kilograms of cheese that the US gov. has.

      …!?! “strategic reserves” means …actual food, water and other resources vital for human survival. Fallout’s economy did not run on bottle caps for nothing. Any “thing” that could act as a currency – cash, bitcoins, gold, diamonds, etc means nothing if you are starved in a ditch at winter.

      Germany also had butter reserves in the past due to overproduction during the summer

      Since this isn’t in r/funny.

      Lots of countries have a strategic reserve of non/less perishable goods to support industries that are considered vital to the country and stabilize prices. The government buys up products when it’s cheap and sell when there is a major shortage. Or in some cases where the oversupply is very long-term they donate to food banks or other food programs. The most famous such reserves are the US cheese reserves (aka government cheese) and the Canadian maple reserves

      That’s the point of strategic food reserves. Butter in Poland became expensive, so they sell it off so that the price drops.

      Strategic food reserves are nothing strange.

      China has pork reserves, for example.

      When times get bad you cannot eat gold. Well I mean you can but it ain’t gonna help you much.

      Well during Covid lockdowns butter and yeast were essentials

    22. ProfessionalOwn9435 on

      Well USA has federal reserves of cheese, so let Poles have their game.

      Also… can you eat a gold bar? No!

      Good business for them, whenever they got preapared for it they probably pay much less than they will get now

    26. AdeptLengthiness8886 on

      Bet you gold is easier to steal than butter though

    28. NoSmoke2994 on

      Hypothetically, if the apocalypse happened, and we go back to surviving the wilderness, I would rather carry a bag of butter, than a bag of gold.
