Mr and Mrs O F. Stone of rros Economists List Ways To Save on Food Bills Looking for ways lo save money and not feel pinched? As much as $250 can be trimmed from your family's yearly food bill by shopping more wisely for food which is one of the more flexible items in the budget, say ex tension specialists at Oregon State University. "Your family will still eat well-not a depression diet of beans, dried peas and salt pork," assured Jean Shipman and Barbara McCandless, OSU food marketing special ists. They offer eight ways a family can save on food. Figure cost per serving when buying meats. A quarter out of every food dollar is spent on meat. Shoppers can afford to pay lor iwice as much boneless fully cooked ham than bone-in uncooked ham. Fully cooked ham has less waste and more servings. Figure cost per unit on other foods. These include rice, cereal, mayonnaise, pea nut butter and dried fruit. A pound loaf of enriched white bread that sells for 20 cents costs half as much per pound as an 8 ounce package of enriched white rolls. Money-Savers Look for money-savers un der private labels. . Canned and frozen foods labeled with less well-known names usual ly are priced under similar nationally advertised brands. Try various brands to learn quality firsthand. Buy in-scason foods. Spe cialists offer two OSU leaf lets "Fresh Fruits and Vege tables, Availability in Ore gon" and "Retail Meat Prices, Monthly Variation on Oregon Markets." Both are free on request at county extension offices. Match quality for use. Buy ripe nectarines, plums, pine apples and bananas al re duced prices for immediate use. Fresh peaches need not be perfect for cobblers and salads, remind home econom ists. Canned broken pieces cost less than perfect halves or whole fruit. Although can ncd tuna is available in fancy or solid pack, chunk, flaked or grated, the solid pack is most expensive. Solid white meat makes a dressier salad; grated tuna is an inexpensive choice for casseroles, souffles and fish cakes. Save Money Enjoy convenience foods but know that you pay for some. Specials on any of these create more favorable prices. Choose those that really save money, reduce waste,- prep aration or cooking time. In gredients added at home boost prices on some. Some save time; others don't. Rcady-to-eat cereals may cost 4 times as much as oatmeal per serv ing, potatoes in their various forms may cost anywhere from 2 to 29 cents a serving, whipped cream in aerosol cans costs more than regular whipping cream. Money saving foods include nonfat dry milk, cake mixes, frozen orange juice, and white sauce, bisouit and bread mixes made at home. Don't cause waste at the market or at home. Shoppers who squeeze avocados show they know little about signs of quality, note specialists. Bruised produce in the long run forces retailers to raise prices to cover losses and all shoppers pay in the end. If you have to throw out half of the "bargain" produce, you're paying twice as much for what you buy, remind specialists. Protect Food Protect food quality at home. Store frozen foods at zero F. until used. Use left overs. Food thrown out can easily add $100 a year to food costs. Read labels and follow in structions. Buy fresh yeast and use before expiration date. Don't add extras to cake mixes. Chemists have spent millions developing mix reci pes, say home economists, and it's folly to tamper with them. Armchair shop with food ads and a grocery list at home. Impulse buying adds to the food bill. For ihe Kids ' linlo a bowl of oatmeal. Top For a flavor surprise, stir with brown sugar and lots of a few drops of vanilla extract I milk or cream.
