Thank you for sharing Clara - my old landlord never threw anything out and my mother said that's because he was a child of the Depression - then she explained to us kids how bad it was back then :( He used to buy food off the budget cart at the supermarket, would stack tons of margarine tubs and newspapers all over his house! It left a life-long impression on me.

Great stuff. I really appreciate having access to methods of cooking vital to survival in tough times. Even during times of plenty like today, I still love to cook frugally most of the time. It's a shame that I learned of your channel only just now. Time to catch up!

Maybe it's not food to you but it is to lots of other people and it was before during the depression when people couldn't afford expensive meats and foods.
