Feeding the Family By ZOLA VINCENT Food Editor Hems Fleeter Trends ! Families considering buying I a home freezer may be inte rested in some trends in this f equipment. One trend .in pur chasing is toward larger sizes. !A small family which would have chosen a 7 or 8 cubic foot ! capacity a few years ago now ' generally chooses a 12 or 14 cub ; ic-footer. More upright freezers ; are being purchased. . One rea son is that they take up less floor space than the chest type, making them more popular in smaller-type homes feeing built Also, more manufacturers are of fering upright types which open like a refrigerator. An upright usually costs more than a chest model because more costly con struction is required. Life ex pectancy of freezers now is longer. A good freezer should last 12 instead of 10 years as was estimated a few years ago. Swiss Chard Casserole Swiss chard, too often over looked as a delicious vegetable, is seasonally at its best.
