Yea I ain't had good hog mean in forever. You are right all you are buyin in stores is offa shoats. We usta get gooooood cajun sausage made from wild hogs this old cajun a couple a counties over had trapped and redomesticated. Several years back he got down and his kids sold off his whole stock of hogs. He was fit ta bust, he has a new stock started, but he ain't got enough in the pens to start sausage makin again. Been a rough year for him and the hogs. One of the boars he had in the pens tore up two of his sows bad. He wound up puttin a bullet in him because he was tearin up everything in sight.
At one time we used to get sap from sweetgum trees ta chew. We used to buy cane syrup from the mill over offa Hall's Bluff Road in Houston County. We raised pretty much everything in the world, and we usta eat ALOT of creek and river caught fish, squirrel, deer, dove, quail, and that sorta thing.
Lye is gonna be a problem less I gather my own. Storebought lye was apparently pulled when they pulled sudafed offa the shelves because these druggy jerks are usin it in makin meth. Didn't have no idea until I asked for it last night and the store manager was called in. I believe if I hadn't been in my work uniform they woulda called the cops on me. Talk about rilled up.

"The gun has been called the great equalizer, meaning that a small person with a gun is equal to a large person, but it is a great equalizer in another way, too. It insures that the people are the equal of their government whenever that government forgets that it is servant and not master of the governed." - 40th President of the United States Ronald Reagan 1911-2004
