[QUOTE="Ridgetop, post: 1823191, member: 38751"] Sadly true. I always cooked from scratch. Eating out with a family of 6 was a treat and too expensive for what you get. We raised rabbits for meat, hens for eggs, I grew a large garden and had fruit trees. Later we raised our own hogs, lambs, veal, and meat goats, and bought our beef at the Junior Livestock auction. My grandmother gave me her old pressure cooker when I married, and I used it for 40 years (until I had to replace it) to cook tougher cuts of meat. Now I use an Instapot. I can get 2 meals and a pot of soup from a chicken for a family of 6. When the family was young, I made scratch biscuits to fill up the holes. LOL Unfortunately, my daughters didn't learn to cook from me. They preferred to spend time outside with their animals. I think people are going to have to learn to cook to feed their families with the high price of groceries. With so many families with both parents working, a lot of children are being raised on take-out meals. EBT cards are being accepted at fast food places instead of used at grocery stores for good basic food. Buying 2 meals at McDonalds costs $20! And don't get me started on how high coffee has gone! I don't know any vegans. Maybe I am missing something, but I think that China and India probably affect the climate more than all the cattle in the US. Like the bumper sticker I saw recently - "I didn't claw my way to the top of the food chain to eat vegetables"! [/QUOTE]
