[quote=Anonymous]Like everything else, part of the answer is time vs money. Driving to different grocery stores to save $5-10 is worth it for some families and not for others. Saving on prepared sauces vs the time spent on prep, cooking and cleanup time is worth it for some and not for others. Also, it’s not reasonable to compare your spend x years ago to today. Toddlers eat very little, kids eat a little more, and having two growing tweens/teens is equivalent to 3-4 adults. I used to make one roast chicken for my family of 4 and have leftovers. Now that I have two hungry tweens, I make 2 roast chickens and they are picked clean. And I eat less than I used to, so it’s mostly the kids. [/quote]
