I'm sorry, but the last part about "don't open your freezer, and if it's thawed don't refreeze it" is some epic level bullshit. Now if it's a natural disaster, then okay, we get it. But if it's just the electric company shutting down your smart meter because muh global warming carbon footprint, then who the fuck is paying for the food lost? great way to starve peopl

Whether intended or not, much food is wasted during these power cuts, which have already been happening. I think it was last year, they blamed a very cold winter and heaters used too much power. But here in the southern states, most of us burn natural gas to produce the heat, and we need only a small amount of electricity to power the fans that circulate the air.
