One coupon was for sour cream, the rest were cleaning supplies (paper towels and dishwasher soap). None of the other coupons were anything we eat. <br /><br />Interesting...we belong to an organic CSA, so veggies come from there or my own plants or from Sprouts; dairy comes from Trader Joe's...Farmer's markets--at least here--take WIC, etc., so it's getting a bit easier for those on low incomes to get fresh veggies--a step in the right direction!

They aren't eating quinoa. They don't care if their meat was breaded and cooked before being frozen and stored in their freezer. Heck, most of them don't eat any veggies at all.<br /><br />Their idea of "healthy" is probably using low-fat margarine on the frozen, prepared mashed potatoes.<br /><br />Speaking of veggies, I cannot wait until I have a kitchen again. Even if, to start, it's just two or three ring gas stovetop.j.https://www.blogger.com/profile/05488121165040555447noreply@blogger.com
