BEST FOOD BUYS
Traditional Easter Fare Featured
Ham, turkey, and eggs will
be the mam attractions at area
retail food stores this week,
eays Harold Neigh, consumer
marketing specialist at Penn
State.
You’ll find Easter hams cost
ing a ifew cents less than a year
asxi. However, prices will vary
between stores and in stores
because of the different kinds,
puts and styles of ham.
Hams are either “cook-be
f ore-eating” or “fully-cooked”
«nd the meat industry is trying
,to get all packers to label hams
as such. Cook-bef ore-eating
hams are regular smoked hams
that have been heated to an in
ternal tempeiature of at least
137 degrees F. They are safe to
eat, but additional cooking is
necessary to bring out the pro
per flavor and tenderness.
Fully-cooked and ready-to-eat
hams have been cured and
heated so they may be served
cold without further cooking or
they mav be reheated-and seiv
ed hot You’ll pay a few cents
more for a fully-cooked ham
than a regular smoked ham be
cause of additional piocessing
coats, but you can expect less
cooking shrinkage.
Although whole hams are
available, hams are usually
sold by the half or portion
the butt half and the shank
half. The butt half comes from
higher on the leg- than the
shank half; it yields a larger
proportion of lean meat than
does the shank half and usu
ally sells for a higher price per
pound.
If you piefer “turkey, it
shouldn’t be too hard to find
one to fill your needs Prices
generally start ait 35 cents a
pound for the heaviest size and
go up to 49 cents a pound for
Food Costs
Some convenience foods cost
little, x£ any, more than regu
lar foods, says Harold Neigh,
Penn State extension special
ist in consumer economics.
Difference in cost depends on
the amount ot processing and
packaging that has to be done,
and how savings can be leal
ized. For example, oranges are
•queezed, ait a plant near the
grove and the juice is shipped
in frozen concentrated form.
This saxes enough to offset
processing costs.
