Food prices are soaring, and that’s changed how we eat

Lisa Altman used to take pride in being able to eat what she wanted without worrying much about the cost.

Skipping some of the “luxury” food items. I refuse to pay an arm and a leg for NY Strip Steaks! 🥩

I haven’t really figured out how to cut back. As a rule, I don’t really spend a lot anyway. I am often shocked when I go to the grocery. Honestly, I often wonder how families with children at home are making it. It kind of makes me sad to think about. I have 2 vehicles. One is a gas guzzling SUV and the other is a 2012 Honda Civic. I drive the Civic much more often these days.

Yep. I often wonder how a single parent makes it, especially if they don't have a good paying job or the elderly.

Honestly, I haven’t looked at an electric bill in a long time. It comes directly out of my account and I don’t pay attention. I need to be more conscientious although I don’t know that there’s much I can do about it.
