Same with schools around here. I think it’s mostly the “free and reduced” lunch crowd - that percentage probably varies widely across the various districts.
Grandma has wanted me to buy Healthy Request Cambell’s soup, but the shelf has been empty the last two weeks on my weekly shopping trip. I wonder if it is the small cans that are not available at the plant?
we have real workers in America and we have the not essential govt workers...
I’ve frozen a few half-gallons of milk. Just pour a little off the top to allow for expansion. IIRC, it will last a few months - just thaw in the fridge & give it a good shake.
we owe so much to our forward thinking pandemic bros....NOT!
Yes, same here, agreed.
But it’s a bigger percentage than I expected, I will say.
In my state, many state workers are on UNPAID furlough starting this week.
I haven’t had a Subway in can’t remember how long. The last two times, it tasted like bleach. No thanks.
My fav, that I posted about, is a Schlotzsky’s original. Don’t know if they’ve changed since I haven’t bought a sandwich from them for probably a decade. But the recipe tastes like I remember so that’s all that matters. I’ve been wanting to make some for two weeks but don’t have lettuce or tomatoes. Still have some green tomatoes from a month ago so might go with a fried tomato on the sandwich. Yep, yum, will make the bun dough in the morning.
Down to the last of the sour cream and found a little package of frozen mushrooms so it’s beef stroganoff with lots of onions and roasted carrots for dinner tonight.
“The actual jugs are made in the US.”
The actual jugs are made at the same facility where the milk is packaged into the jugs. The machine uses plastic pellets, a petrochemical product, to blow mold the jugs. It would be impossibly expensive to otherwise because you would be paying to transport air in the empty jug. It would also be impossible to keep the jugs sanitary while awaiting being filled.
buy cold cut combos at subway on white or italian bread NOT toasted with NO mayo or mustard, just oil and vingar.....don’t bother with anything else...
Advertise your goats for sale in the local Spanish-language newspaper - lots of demand for “cabrito.” Start working on your language skills now.
According to the pizza shop next door to my place, really well. They had to hire more pizza makers. Of course the only other place to eat in town is the diner which does not deliver.
Logical and practical advice right there !
Makes good common and practical sense, with each step there is a reduction of home owner supplied electrical power.
I have stored up the large jars and ingredients to start pickling effs. Now need to purchase the eggs for processing. I can pickle six dozen with current jars, etc.
Cream: Heavy (50% or higher Fat) Yeah Yeah I know “it’s fattening” and all that BUT that’s why all that stuff tastes so much better at Restaurants than most of Home cooking. Real Butter, Cream 70% Fat (OMG !!!) Creme Brulee, Top Shelf Fruits like the Huge (I’ve seen some the size of Tennis Balls and not watery taste so) GOOD Strawberries with Long Stems for Chocolate Dipped Strawberries.
Have you ever heard of water glassing eggs?
I just found out about that as a way to preserve eggs and plan on trying it this year.
Excellent post .. thanks !
Which usually just means that they will be paid later in the year.
