15 ILLEGAL Kitchen Tricks Black Grandmothers Fed Six on Nothing

My grandmother fed 6 kids and 2 extra on $9 a week, and nobody in that house ever went to bed hungry. Here are 15 of the kitchen habits she used to make that happen, from pot liquor and homemade stock to the coffee can of bacon grease that sat by her stove, from stretching one pound of ground beef across three meals to the Sunday pot that fed the whole week. Every one of them is the same habit a grocery store now sells back to you in a box or a carton with a fancier name on it.
