A food dollar is precious. It purchases food to satisfy hunger. It brings familiar foods to the table where all can enjoy foods together. Used wisely, it can provide foods to help each family member, young and old, become" the energetic and healthy individual that he wants to be.
To use food money well, first consider the food needs of every family member. Then weigh these against the dollars you have to spend.
Get the most for the least by:
1. Picking from the plentiful foods in planning meals and snacks.
2. Shopping from a prepared list. Make menuesfor the week and list the foods necessary to prepare those meals.
3. Spending your food money in stores stocking a wide variety of good foods, where the average price means lower grocery and meat bills for you week in and out.
4. Including “specials” in the weekly menu.
Be sure that your purchases and menus will contain the foods needed for eacn\person, on each day. Do servings from the meat group, total at least two daily including dry beans or peas, eggs and cheese with meat? See that four or more servings^ of enriched or whole grain breads and cereals are included. Servings of fruits and vegetables should add up to four and include deep green and yellow vegetables as well as vitamin C - rich fruits or juices. Plan for 3-4 cups of milk a day for children and two cups for adults.
Look for ways to stretch that dollar without sacrificing your families’ health. For further information contact th$ Extension Office, 675-3619. WORKSHOPS
