Family Budget Tip

I went shopping this morning at Sams.  I had to think for the next 3 weeks.  We needed meat, fish and vegies and fruit.  Here is the break down of the cost per serving of the pork and salmon I bought.


7.61 lbs of pork tenderlion for $13.62 = 121.76 oz which yields 40, 3oz portions or 30 4oz portions. So many dinners for less than 45 cents per meat serving. Pork is rich in thiamin, vitamin B1, which is important in the conversion of food into energy and nerve transmission. Salmon was $15.77 for 2.26 lbs = 9, 4 oz servings for $1.75/ serving, a bit more expensive but great brain and heart food. Now I many meals for my rapidly growing boys that didn't break the bank.
