The good thing about harvesting acorns as an austere environment survival food, is the lack of recognition by the uninformed of the value of acorns as a food resource, as well as not knowing how to exploit the resource effectively.
Making Acorn Bread, a comprehensive 4 Part YouTube tutorial series: Part I Part II Part III Part IV Acorns are a seasonal crop...converting acorns to flour, is a good way of making use of the resource beyond the acorn gleaning season.
