[quote=Anonymous]I know this is an old thread but the issue seems current. We are an experienced HF and never had any food issues. We ask our au pair what we should get when we go shopping and we frequently get requests for things that we typically do not buy, like flavored yogurt or salami. We do not provide 3 “meals” a day. We provide groceries: eggs, milk, bread, fruit, vegetables, meat, some prepared meals (like tortellini, or stuffed peppers from Costco). We occasionally cook, but DH and I work full time and frequently just snack in the evenings. We are always upfront about this arrangement. And never had issues. We have never given a food stipend. That being said, we spend ~$600/week on food for a family of 5.[/quote]
