The needles of the white pine, are supposed to be mild and packed with vitamin C. People swear by it, but it still tastes piney to me. But to break a cold....

The pine nuts are sold in stores, not to bad, but still a little piney for a snack food!

The Donner Party stacked failures, including having no one along that had winter survival skills! I'd have set snares, while I was eating the horses; but foraging was definitely important too.

It's amazing how far people will fall, when they get hungry!

Keep on prepping....
