[quote=Anonymous]I have 3 kids with a similar age spread and they aeat a similar amount. I am also appalled by the grocery bill. Here are a couple of things that have helped: 1. Frozen strawberries and blueberries. My kids will eat these from those giant bags and fill up on them, way more cost effective than the fresh fruit. 2. Shopping at Costco or Sam’s Club. For a family of 5 you just need large quantities of food and it is so much more cost effective. 3. Recognizing that they probably fill up at home because they barely eat at school. So I let them eat as much as they want when they get home(within reason). 4. Cut up some vegetables and put them out with snacks and meals. They get eaten along with the other things and I don’t feel so bad![/quote]
