[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]1. I cook from scratch with in season foods
2. We almost only buy proteins on sale, and favor larger cuts (pork butt; bone-in turkey breast) that I can roast or smoke and will last many meals.
3. Protein is an accent, not a main event.

In addition to inflation, climate and logistical issues are making some foods scarce. I think we need to be adaptable with recipes.[/quote]

I really wish the fresh food is cheaper myth would die. Maybe that was true at some point in history, but processed and frozen food is far cheaper than fresh fruits and vegetables. There are plenty of great reason to from scratch, but cost savings are not one of them  [/quote]

It's cheaper in the sense that it tastes better, so people will eat more of it compared to processed/canned veg. Plus it's healthier, so you will pay less in health costs in the end than if you just ate processed food. Finally, you can indeed get very cheap fresh food, if you know where to look. Grocery store apps that are giving way close to expired fresh food away for cheap, farmer's market end of the day sales, buying in season, etc. I use these options all the time.[/quote]
