Food Insecurity

[Scythe13]

Interesting question.

For me, the term food-insecurity would have to mean not being able to remove that hungry feeling everyday.

Granted I do like to go to bed hungry now and again, because it's healthy. However, if I had no choice in the matter, that would be food insecurity.

As for difficulty of obtaining food, I'd probably have to go along the lines of when I had to supplement what I had grown with what nature provided. I don't mean those mushrooms you pick up when you're out walking the dogs, or that handful of greens for the salad. I mean actually needing to go out and get that food, otherwise we would be doing hungry.

We have the problem of feeding the dogs too. So I guess when the cost of our household food was beyond our means to cope.

A 40% increase would be bare able, but it wouldn't be fun.
