Another comment of low importance. It must have been about 3 years ago one of our brilliant beaurocratic agencies made the determination that opening two cans of food and combining them constitutes "home cooking"!!!! "Beam me up Scottie, there is no intelligent life down here." Dean

I realize people who live in the city sometimes can't shop where
they want. What do people do who don't have food stamps like
myself. You plan and work it out so you can survive.


Even in rural areas, it can be difficult to buy wisely if you don't
have a car. I live nine miles from the nearest grocery store. Some of
my elderly non-driving neighbors have to shop at the local gas
station/convenience store unless someone is generous enough to take
them into town to the supermarket. Everyone's situation, and
understanding, is different.

But, on a more cheerful note, I'm seeing more and more on the local
news about saving money on food by actually preparing meals from raw
ingredients. If the current situation persists, that kind of
programming will continue.
