I remember a news story from probably ten or fifteen years ago, when food banks were turning away donations of things like flour because their "clients" didn't know what to do with it! If they're not actually cooking food from scratch, then they're not really poor IMHO.<br /><br />FWIW, I used to love making fudge and toffee and all kinds of baked treats (and bread) when I was a kid - no wonder I have a sweet tooth even in my 40s! Having been out of work for five of the past twelve months, I've been cooking from scratch and probably eating a better diet than at any other time in the last ten years.<br />Heisenbughttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09853011593271456367noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14299289.post-54082215845345628242013-08-04T17:40:31.153+12:452013-08-04T17:40:31.153+12:45A bit like people who whine about the cost of food...A bit like people who whine about the cost of food--almost none of them bother to plant and tend a vege garden.KGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01940428991630766942noreply@blogger.com
