FOOD COST-CUTTERS When you nuy meat, consider the amount of lean meat in the cut, not the cost per pound. Some cuts contain bone, gristle, and fat waste. land condi- Bacon, which is largely fat, is one of the most expensive foods you can buy in terms of protein value. Chicken and turkey have a large proportion of bone to lean, but are often bargains compared with other meats Fish is high in nutrients, often low in cost. Eggs are usually a less expen sive source of nutrients than most meats 60 Cows 120 3600 7200 10,800 Serve liver, ,t gives you a high nutritive return for money spent Buy bread that’s whole-grain oi enuched and that contain; milk.
