#winterprep #seniorliving #livingalone #savemoney #pantry #grocerytips Living alone this winter? These twenty-five food tips stock your pantry, stop food from going in the trash, and can save you hundreds of dollars. After thirty years cleaning at a hospital, Dorothy Mays walks you through eleven things for your pantry (taking inventory, canned beans and soups, canned fish and chicken, fewer canned fruits and tomatoes, rice and pasta, oatmeal, peanut butter, shelf-stable milk, comfort food, water, and a manual can opener), five ways to store food so nothing spoils (the right place, first in first out, the can check, leftovers out of the can, and what the dates really mean), six ways to shop smarter (the list and the plan, unit prices, store brands, buying big only when it keeps, stocking up before the storm, and pickup or delivery), and three that bring help within reach: 211, the free monthly food box for seniors 60+, and SNAP, which averages $188 a month for an older adult living alone, according to the National Council on Aging. No products to sell you. Just what works and the reason it works.
