Bringing this back up and doing a little cleaning as well. BTW speaking of food and preps Wally world has the big cans of chicken on sale for $1.88 each and the expiration date is 2015 so that means that in a basement they are good for at least 4-5 years.

How many ounces is that?

How many ounces is that?

12.5 Oz. Not a bad price for it already canned. Use by date was 02/15/2015

Works out to $2.40 per lb for boneless chicken breast. I save a little when I can at $1.49-$1.69 per Lb but this is a great deal for those that do not can.

I bought one case of 12 and going to get another. The last I bought at Sam's club was $2.10 per can.(same size)

Does anyone have a good recipe for strawberry jam using less sugar? I made a batch last year using the ball recipe that turned out great, but using more sugar than strawberries just seems wrong. I am looking for a recipe for canning, not freezer jam.

So I was in wally world today and saw that they still have chicken @ $1.98 but with a new twist.

The "best by date" was 06/15 so it is good for 4 years in prime shape and more to still be useable. I hope to try these and see how they fit in.

Check the label. I am very wary of any from, packaged, made, in china Food item.

Has a USDA label on it. Did not know China did chicken. Does not say made in china. I understand about the china thing but I think this was made here.

I see that starting in 2011 chicken was allowed to be imported from china by the WTO.

How well does dried pasta hold up over time? Right now they have 16 oz packages for 49 cents if you buy 10 or more.

Also Spaghetti o's with meatballs $1 per 14.75 oz can, although I already cleaned out the store down by ft carson.

Out in the open 2-3 years if stored right. In Mylar 10-15 years. $1 per can is ok but they had a sale 6 months ago for 88 cents. I bought 30 cans. $1 per can has been everywhere for the last few months on all CBOD products.

I am wanting tuna to get to 50 cents a can again. Down to 30 cans left.

And stay outta my store.

Thanks, 5 minutes from my house, that is my store as well we have probably seen one another. CBOD is always on sale but I really like Franco American.
