Month 12: Other Food for Easy Living

If you look really close you can see "Use Me" written on my peanut butter.  This was because as I was checking my food, this was dented with a bulge.  Even if  I only bought it a month ago, I wanted to use it before it went bad.

Shopping List: 

Walmart

     *6 6lb Large Peanut Butter.  $77.04.  OR 510 (2 Tablespoon) servings.

     *2 6lb Large Shortening.  $19.56  OR 454 (1 Tablespoon) servings.

     *3 6pack (makes 2 Quarts each) containers of Drink Mix.  $6

Total:  $102.60

Other Food For Easy LivingHere is a list of other food items such as snacks and spices that will make your “time” living off food storage more pleasant. It's important to have other options if you have kiddos at home. (We all know how picky a baby, toddler, child, teenager, college student is...)

Salt
Chili powder
Onion Powder
Garlic Powder
Cinnamon
Bay leaves
Parsley
Oregano

Cajun seasoning
