    Hmmm

    Pink salt 1&2, linen sausage bags, raw meat such as: Pork, beef, venison, grouse, bison and moose.

    I'm out of:

    Paprika, Chili powder, garlic powder, onion powder, long pepper, grains of paradise, white pepper, ginger, black pepper, vinegar, table salt, kosher salt, honey, and sugar.

    Olive oil, Peanut oil, lard and canola oil.

    Crackers

    Pork tenderloin, bacon, pork belly and lamb.

    Rye flour, whole wheat flour, enriched white flour, yeast, baking soda and baking powder.

    Plums, pears, raisins and avocados.

    Brewers yeast, yeast nutrient, pectin, acid blend, tannin powder and clarifiers.

    Eggs, powdered eggs and powdered milk.

    Hickory, apple wood, oak and alder chips.

    Assorted dry beans, lentils, sesame seeds, buckwheat, red river cereal, coffee, oats and rice.

    Soap, mason jars, lids, paraffin wax, bees wax and corks

    So I'll be heading back to the 19th century and do some shopping =/

      good luck trying to find avocados, pink salt, and powdered eggs in the same 19th century store.

        I could easily find sodium nitrate, sodium nitrite and potassium nitrate in any general store of the period. Pink salt is not the iron rich salt from the Himalayas but the curing salts which are dyed pink to distinguish them from common table and kosher salts. Mixing these salts up would be very bad indeed.It would be easier to find them in the past when more people used them.

        Powdered eggs yeah you're right I'd have to venture to a camp supply store or make them myself as a general store won't do until the 1930's.

        I'm shit out of luck on avocados though as the current breed we eat wasn't around until the 1950's when that postman got ripped off.

        I was hoping for a single time travel trip as its a hassle.
