wasnt canned foods we tossed, just some instant rice meals.

dread makes a very important point here folks

I don't even store Spam for hurricanes! Canned tuna and salmon for me! If you eat your preps anyway... I'm NOT gonna be eatin' Spam on a regular basis. Anyone seen that healthcare bill???

Here's one answer to where they get their goods. I stumbled into one of their stores in middle Indiana, and bought a couple of boxes ust to be neighborly, but I realized this phenomenon was much bigger than occasional person wandering into their store. The one I found was about 20,000 square feet.

BTW- Take good flashlights, even in daytime, in Amish country, you can't see crap without one

Here's an excerpt of one of the websites.

Have you ever wondered what the dates on most food labels mean? You might find them on canned items, frozen food packages, and even meat or poultry products. Does it mean that the product is unsafe after that date? ........

INTRODUCTION

It seems that Pennsylvania has become the outlet capital for more than clothing. Now it’s groceries! Amish, Mennonite and even Quaker and Pennsylvania Dutch are opening banana box wholesale discount salvage grocery outlet stores in the Tri-State Region and nationwide. Grocery shoppers who frequent stores such as Amelia’s or other discount food stores are finding that their food budgets are greatly stretched and a cart full of groceries can be purchased cheaper in such stores. For those who are interested in making a business out of these salvage or mom and pop stores by getting into the banana box wholesale grocery or discount salvage grocery business, a manual is available for a nominal fee which presents the ins and outs of the wholesale bent and dent and grocery overstock industry. This grocery manual is a must for anyone who desires to become a grocery broker or open up a banana box grocery store operation. These discount grocery stores sell in-date, near date, out of date groceries and expired groceries. Seems that everyone after shopping at these stores wants to open one up.

We found that railroad salvage, damaged groceries, banana box groceries, grocery closeouts, surplus, grocery liquidators, grocery reclamation, grocery salvage, bent and dent and salvage paper make up your areas of finding product. Nothing however replaces a good broker or reclamation center relationship. Everyone wants to know, how do I get into the business and there are no easy ways but we have proven that an outsider can make it in the business and be very successful. As a mom and pop grocery supplier or wholesale grocery supplier of short coded groceries and overstock, you are the best friend the wholesale grocers have and are doing a tremendous service to the grocery industry.

Amish Grocers have been very tight lipped but once you gain their trust will eventually talk to you. That’s assuming they have the time. One of our customers sells 32 loads a month. That’s about 40,000 boxes a month. There is little time for talk in this business. Running a grocery outlet is a full time job but the Amish and others have become very successful by being open Monday through Saturday and closed on Sunday. Grocery Overstock Management and liquidation encompasses a number of areas including Canned Foods such as fruit, soup, sauces and bulk groceries such as flour, cereal and pasta. Sometimes these stores are called Bent and Dent Salvage or Bent and Dent Groceries. Most times the food will be In Date but a percentage will be Out of Date or Close to date. Some dealers sell Expired Groceries, Shelf pulls and HBA. Most of the inventory comes directly from grocery store chains such as Albertsons, Giant, Weis, Acme, Kroger and many others. Sometimes, Grocery inventory buybacks occur or an insurance company ends up with an overturned truck or tractor trailer and must reimburse for a loss. Grocery stores do sometimes suffer bankruptcies and must be liquidated.

From our experience, Pennsylvania Amish, Ohio, Indiana, and Wisconsin Amish Grocery stores are thriving and being opened by families or relatives. Other independents are coming on line fast as well. Mennonites are big in the business and control a number of stores. Some have electricity and some do not but people come from miles around for the bargains and the fun.
