Technicolor Dining News October 2015

Welcome to October!

In my part of the world October the possibility of a hurricane passing through the area has slightly shifted my focus from  delighting in the harvest of fruits and vegetables to confirming I have supplies on hand in event of power loss for a few hours or a few days.  The  sporadic  and sometimes heavy rainfall encourages us to remain indoors and stay dry.

A pal recently asked about this week's  2015 SNAP Challenge organized by Maryland Hunger Solutions. She specifically wanted to know if the $22 for was an entire week. No, The $22 is for a 5 day period. That's roughly $4.4 per day or $1.47 per meal  (based on three meals a day. The pal's response was that diet food costs more and that the idea of person thriving on $4.4 was criminal.  I have not done research on the cost of diet food, but I do know that $1.47 per meal severely limits food choices.
