If in survival mode, and that is all I have access to, we can make do with rougher breads. Otherwise s good grinder is nice to have.
You've never used a Blendtec have you... :)

Also, for anyone looking to save up for something like this, we purchased our Vitamix from the spring factory-reconditioned sale (essentially, all the sales models come in, are refurbished, and then resold) with the full 10-year warranty for a LOT less than a brand new model. I believe the sale ended in March, but it's worth noting for next year.
we have 2 Vitamix blenders, one is 12 yo and has been sent back for some wear parts replacement under warranty 3 years ago.......and we have a newer 1 that's 3 yo ....

1 tip we've learned that seems awkward at first with drinking smoothies, is to "chew" it as u drink.......by simulating the action of chewing with ur mouth/jaws, there are enzymes released within the saliva that aid in the digestion process & breakdown of the nutrients contained.......
