Food Crisis Solution

Greeting adventurer! Welcome back, and for those of you who are new to my blog, I’m Josie and I say things. Simple. Speaking of simple things, I have a simple, straight forward solution to the world’s current food crisis. I don’t understand why more people aren’t doing it. This is revolutionary. You will never be queuing up in the supermarket or grocery store for huge bags of ambient food items ever again.

You can grow your own pasta, at home. How? What do you need to do? “You said, ‘simple.’ How can this possibly be simple?” I hear you ask. It’s because the world governments have been trying to hide this from us all. They don’t want you growing all of your own food from home. How could they squeeze you for every penny, as they do in the supermarket, if you rarely needed to venture inside?

You can grow your own pasta at home, with my very simple, easy to follow method. First, you will need to venture into a supermarket and purchase the pasta of your choosing, for one last time. You can do this with spaghetti, penne, macaroni, fusilli, farfalle, you name it, this will work. Okay, so you have your pasta, now you will need some plant pots and soil.

So what do you do with such a strange array of items? You plant your pasta in the plant pots, in the same way as you would seeds or small flower bulbs. You plant them, cover them in soil, keep them on the windowsill or somewhere where they will receive natural light and you water them regularly – not too often now. Try not to let the soil dry out, but at the same time, do not over saturate them with too much water.

Give them a few weeks and you will start to see small shoots of pasta peering through the soil, just like you would with flowers or when growing your own fruit and vegetables. Wait a several more weeks, and continue to water them, as necessary, and you will find that the pasta you have planted has begun to grow. Sticks of spaghetti, swirls of fusilli and sproutlings of farfalle will fill your window ledges. Before you know it, you will have grown more than a family sized portion of your favourite, beloved pasta.

You can try this technique any variety of pasta, noodles and rice, which is a large staple of most people’s diets.

Go out there and get growing. I would love to know how everyone gets on. Please leave a comment below and tag me in all of your photos, @josiesayz on all social media.
