Bristoe;
Good evening to you sir, I hope the day's been going according to plan for you and you're still all well.

While I don't know if you've got anything like this south of the medicine line, up here we've got a chain called Bulk Barn where one brings their own jars or containers into the store - they've got to be clean spotless however - they'll weigh the empty and away you go.

We buy our oatmeal, 9 grain porridge, bulgar, dry beans, molasses, spices and a bunch of other dry goods there. It's amazing how much money seems to be in packaging. Spices in particular are typically less than a quarter the cost of individually packed containers.

When I'm making bread, meatballs, meatloaf or hamburgers I add rolled oats.

If one has the storage room lentils can last decades if stored in a dry place. They're bland and take on the taste of pretty much whatever they're put into. One can add them to the meatloaf or burger to stretch it as well.

This is a good discussion Bristoe, thanks for starting it.

All the best to you all this weekend.

Dwayne
