And when you are pregnant you are not supposed to eat processed lunch meats anyway, they can cause Listeria, which can cause miscarriage. You can safely eat them if you microwave them until they are steaming. My kids and husband love lunch meat for sandwiches however, so I have found a cheaper way to get them. I buy a big boneless 3 or 4 pound ham when it's on sale for six dollars or less, then I have the butcher slice it wafer thin for sandwiches. Then I'm only paying $2 or less per pound, where the packaged lunch meats cost at least $3.50 per pound on sale. I just get out a little baggy of the ham at a time, and put the rest in the freezer.

This post was mostly directed to those (if you read the thread at the forum you'll see what I mean) who are on a very, very tight grocery budget - the mom in question has $20 a week to feed herself and her son and recently came off the food stamps program. In my other articles I encourage people to support local and small businesses, but this is particular post was aimed at a different audience. Thanks for your comment. Hi Beth,

Point taken. This post was mostly directed to those (if you read the thread at the forum you’ll see what I mean) who are on a very, very tight grocery budget – the mom in question has $20 a week to feed herself and her son and recently came off the food stamps program.

If you have any interest in seeing the small independent stores survive amidst a sea of soulless superstores puhleeze stay away from our shops if all you want to buy are loss leaders. It's hard enough for us to keep afloat as it is let alone having customers that are only interested in buying items that we sell for a loss. Please help keep small businesses alive!
