I'm not buying as much food as I used to. I am trying to clean out my cupboards more than I ever used to.

I've been storing up food for a little while, trying to build up my pantry.

Big food companies flatter us by telling us how busy we are and they simultaneously convince us that we are helpless. I am moderately busy, but not all that helpless. Neither are you.

The food is to die for.

and they're trying to open cans of food with a screw driver.

Be sure to carefully read the ingredients listing, especially if you suffer from food allergies or are trying to cut down on your trans fat intake. While many food manufacturers began making changes to their labels in 2005, stores are not under any obligation to remove products from their shelves that were packaged prior to these rules.
