War and Famine Go Hand in Hand and it Will Be Larvae and Cricket Sandwiches for Those Who Haven’t Planned

Much is being made in the mainstream media (MSM) of the impeding famine in certain parts of the world. Abundant amounts of the blame from the MSM are being credited to President Trump’s shuttering of all foreign aid for 90 days so that the new administration can get a handle on the already monumental alleged abuses that have been uncovered in US agency spending. USAID is in the crosshairs; international organizations that receive funding from this agency are now apparently wondering aloud how they are going to feed those who come to them for help. (Secretary of State Marco Rubio has said an exception allows emergency food assistance-if you want to help feed those in the Sudan please consider Samaritan’s Purse).
On February 6, CBS News aired ‘How shuttering USAID could impact famine, lives in Sudan’with the accompanying caption:
…’President Trump's efforts to shutter the humanitarian agency, USAID, could have drastic impacts on places like war-torn Sudan. The stoppage could mean less medicine for the sick, fewer first responders and more famine. Warning, the images in this story are graphic.’…(CBS News)
Of course the MSM wouldn’t think to mention that it was U.S. foreign policy that might have had something to do with the Sudanese war in the first place:
…’The transitional constitution that was backed by the United States was a bad deal. However, the ensuing U.S. and Western policies in Sudan directly contributed to the violence that we see today. It is a story of Western peacebuilding and its limits.’…(In Sudan, U.S. Policies Paved the Way for War-Foriegn Policy)
One of the facts of life is that war brings with it hardship and famine. The Sudan war is proof of that. Many of us remember the stories told to us by our parents and grandparents of the rationing of many items-especially food during World War II.

The damages to Ukrainian agriculture since the beginning of the war there in 2022 are in excess of $80 Billion:
…’Total war-related damages to Ukraine’s agriculture sector are estimated at $10.3 billion from February 2022 through January 2024, according to a 2024 assessment by the Kyiv School of Economics (KSE) and partners, while total war-related losses to Ukraine’s agriculture sector are estimated at $83 billion, according to a subsequent assessment by KSE and partners.’…(CSIS)
Not only is the Ukraine effected; all of its agricultural customers downstream from the fighting pay the price of higher prices or non-existent supplies of essential foodstuffs. The Middle East and Africa are particularly affected. Countries like the U.S., Brazil and Australia have stepped up initially to fill the gap.
In Europe:
…’Poland has continued to be the largest importer of Ukrainian goods. In 2024, the value of Ukrainian exports to the Polish market reached $4.8 billion, a decrease of 1% y/y. Among Ukraine’s major trade partners, Romania significantly reduced its imports (by more than 50% y/y-emphasis added) due to restrictions on grain and oilseed imports introduced in 2023.’…(OSW)
Speaking of Poland, I saw a story dated less than two weeks ago from a Polish website entitled ‘EU introduces regulation permitting bugs in bread’:
…’The European Union has officially introduced a regulation legalizing the use of insects as ingredients in bread and cakes’…’Following the new regulation on bread and rolls sold within the EU, they will be able to legally contain 4 grams of mealworms per 100 g of bread, and cakes – 3.5 g of larvae per 100 g of cake.’…(TVP World)
So that means that all of the bread produced in Europe (EU) may contain the ‘worm-like’ form of insect (larvae) as one of its ingredients (!)…
There have been many recalls of large amounts of food products over just the last few months like the massive recall of products from Trader Joe’s, Walmart and Costco just a few days ago. A larger list of recalls can be found at the USDA. Literally, hundreds of thousands (probably millions) of pounds of food products that have been ‘recalled’ can be seen. At the above USDA site multiple recalls per week are documented.
Dont forget about the list of 100 U.S. food plants that have were destroyed, damaged or impacted by “accidental fires,” disease, or general causes just in 2022 that was compiled by The Gateway Pundit.
When you put all of this together with the fact that the globe sits on the precipice of outright World War (as JP Morgan CEO Jamie Dimon recently stated), is it really a bridge too far to consider that famine is not just on the horizon but is on your dashboard?
The Pew Research Center has released research that there are over 10 million ‘unauthorized immigrants’ (UI) in America. Do even a small percentage of these UI’s have nefarious purposes (such as warfare) for being in the U.S.? Are moves by President Trump such as moving troops to the southern border, persuading the Canadians to send troops to their southern (northern U.S.) border and placing battleships off the coast of Mexico a precursor to actual war?
War and famine go hand in hand. Has everyone forgotten Joe Biden’s statement, "With regard to food shortage...it's gonna be real."(?)…this was in regard to the Russian sanctions but he included Europe and the United States as well. The US will not be exempt from the coming food shortages and will not be exempt from the coming war either, IMHO.
What should you then be concentrating on? Food, water (filtration and procurement), shelter, energy (do you have a solar generator?) , protection and communications (i.e. ham/GMRS radio, Sat Phone). Of course the most important of all is a relationship with God through His son, Jesus Christ. Check it out for yourself. If you don’t know Jesus read the Gospel of John to see if Jesus is who He said He is.
If you don’t not prepare for what is coming (is here, actually) you better start figuring out what condiments work best for fried cricket and larvae salad sandwiches…
