I know vegetables grow in Alaska. But what do people do each year to have them to eat in the winter. I can only eat just so many meals of nothing but meat. I like sides to go with the meat.

I don't know about Alaskan's, but we can them here in NC.
Some, like winter squash, we just store in the pantry...

You can dry almost all the available veggies. They reconstitute with water when you're cooking. I don't recommend them for a salad though. Then there is always seaweed.

And the seaweed is better with herring eggs on it.

But what do people do each year to have them to eat in the winter. Run to the store and buy mesican produce that has been gas ripened; or eat a cardboard box as it tastes the same.

Canned and frozen vegys are easy and for the fresh, cruncy taste it is no problem to keep sprouts of all sorts growing during the winter months. And during the darkest winter monts caribou stomach contents are not all that bad -- if you don't mind the taste.

You can reconstitute caribou droping by putting them in boiling water, almost as good as fresh stomach contents.

Just curious the vegetables seem to be quite expensive. But then again I am used to home grown. Even Ketchup is costly.

If you leave the stomach contents in the actual stomach, it's something like an Alaskan pasty.
You'll be wanting some of that grain, too.

Why caribou? I thought Moose was better and there would be more of it.

Geezus have you ever seen what a moose eats?
No thanks caribou innards every time
