I might buy a frozen sandwich or two for DH. He's on the run a lot. I don't think I would use them.

Do most of you not consider things like almond flour, coconut oil, guar gum, vital wheat gluten..... lc? If I never used it before, I consider it a lc item. Well, maybe not all the strange new veggies we've been eating, but all the new baking things.

Do you folks drink soda? If so, ordering DaVinci's and making you own might not be a bad thing to try. I know lots of families that spend hundreds of dollars a year just on soda. (That would only be $4-$5 a week.) I bought a diet Coke, diet Sprite and a regular Coke for when the kids come home for Thanksgiving this week. Probably won't buy anymore until they come home for Christmas.

I think people underestimate how much they spend, especially eating out (coffee at work?) and on junk like soda and fast food.

$500 a year on LC food probably replaces $450 worth of junk that I don't buy anymore. I think it's a very good trade.
