Fucking Kroger's

I like turtles.

i love eating skippy, much better for the environment too as you don't need to clear fell a forest as you would farming cattle. it is super lean though, i'd prefer fattier meat.

I have never tasted kangaroo before, despite being Australian myself, may I ask what it tastes like? Although I have tasted emu before, I found the meat too strong for my taste.

Like lamb, or venison. Gamey.

[Al Swearegen]

Not a fan. Does taste gamey. In stews or what not it tastes OK.

No Kroger's around here  we have Stop and Shop as the expensive grocery store right by our house.  If I go across town it costs a lot less

We call the little Stop and Shop...

Stop and Steal...

Not that we ever steal, I don't even know how, or why we started calling it that, but we did!

Stay away from the things that you listed.

The less processed the food is the better it is and usually cheaper.  Pop a potato in the microwave for about 50 cents.

A roasted chicken can provide about 4 meals for less than $7.  Save the bones and make soup for a fifth meal.   

Shop the seasons.  In the winter we have corn salad (canned corn and salad dressing) when lettuce is too cheap.

Eggs are a good cheap filler.  They'll fill you even more if you make French toast with them.

It is possible to eat well for less than $5 per day.  We do.  It is cheaper as you build your pantry and your recipe collection.

Try googling frugal recipes, cheap recipes, the Hillbilly Housewife (excellent source for dire days), 4 or 5 ingredient recipes.

   Duke, listen to her, she knows how to manage a food budget. Those TV dinners are tasty but damned expensive.
Pasta and sauce are easy to cook, and will last you much longer than prepared meals. 

 


Macaroni and Cheese is a good thing to cook too , It takes half an hour tops (and this is making the cheese sauce from scratch) and you can add bacon and other things into it for a tasty , quick and cheap meal 

   Oooo, mac and cheese with *bacon,* never thought of that! 

[Queen Victoria]

I like turtles.

OOH yes.  A cookie something like a pecan sandy topped with a fudgy chocolate icing shaped like a giant Hershey's Kiss.  Divine.

[Osensitive1]

Never had one with a cookie in it. Just caramel, pecans, and chocolate coating.

I'd forgotten about the turtle candy.
