Did i not present some decent ideas above on "what to do if there's a meat shortage?"
Buy cheap cuts, process your own, waste none?
Fortunately we're on the internet and it's pretty impersonal. Take what you find useful and ignore the rest I'm certainly trying not to offend or take this thread off-topic.
Happy Wednesday!

Happy Thursday! I don't agree with you on the first thing but let's let it go.
Living in Southern CA might be a bit different from where you are. We don't really have many sources of homegrown protein, although that may have to change at this rate. Land is very expensive here so protein gets raised elsewhere and shipped in. And most super markets only give you very limited selection of what sort of protein you can buy. Like, you can't buy tripe, or kidneys, or heart, or tongue unless you go to a Chinese or Latin market and then you can buy all kinds of interesting things. I haven't been since the pandemic hit, so not sure what they've got available. Actually, there's a nice Latin market I should go check out. They've got cool stuff like oxtails.
I did start looking into raising meat rabbits, but I'd have to find someone to butcher them. And I think I'd have to be very desperate to do that. I don't have that big of a yard.
In my situation I need a steady but small supply for me and my cats. I'm not sure what will happen to my cat with IBD if I have to go back to commercial food. It could be a death sentence for him.
