is that your problem bunky (or perhaps you know others who find themselves in such a situation)? If that's the case, perhaps the
following info will prove helpful?

Please check-out Angel Food Ministries (AFM) -- and pass it along to others, perhaps via your mailing lists. (please K&R too?)

$30 buys a box of restaurant-quality food, for a family of four (enough food to last one week)

They also offer specialty boxes/menus; such as, fruits & veggies, allergen-free, heat-n-serve for seniors, etc.

see the March '09 menu here

Check them out also...they have some great prices on their own store brands and so far pretty much everything I have had (I mean of their store brands) seems quality. The only thing to watch is the beef--it's not choice, it's select.
