I have a variety of discount grocers available to me. Sav-A-Lot, Ruler
(a Kroger brand), and 3 Aldi locations.

There's a regional grocery chain called Ingles that has a discount store
in Greeneville. Never been there but know where it's at. Big Lots
sometimes has good deals on canned stuff. There used to be a "scratch
and dent" grocery store here but it went under years ago, sadly.

Errrrmmmmm gasoline and water do NOT mix. No matter what the urban
legens say. Really.

They eventually got caught. I looked on Google Maps and that gas
station is still there thirty years later.

My local GFS is 8 miles acrosdsd town. And they have recently begun offering freshly cooked chicken, including U$3 rotisserie chickens from
4 PM until they close. I buy 'em 4 at a time, shred the meat, put the carcasses into a stock pot and the meat I don't use right away into sucky-bags for the freezer. Heck of a deal.

I'd do the same thing if it wasn't such a trip.

Yield: 16 Servings

1 1/2 Lb Loaf:; (1 Lb Loaf:)
1 1/8 c Buttermilk; To 1 1/4 C,
-(3/4 - 7/8 C)
3 c Bread Flour; (2 C)
1 1/2 ts Salt; (1 Tsp)

This is an outstanding bread! It has a delicate, cake-like texture
and combines the orange and caraway flavors which are popular in so
many Scandinavian breads. It's also good toasted.

Place all ingredients in bread pan, select a light crust setting, and
press "start".

After the baking cycle ends, remove bread from pan, place on cake
rack, and allow to cool 1 hour before slicing.

Too bad Menard's (lumber/home improvement) hasn't gotten south of
Kentucky yet. They often have food bargains on staple/non-perishable
item in bozes or cans.

Looking at t he weekly flyer for your local Ingles I see they have some reasonably decent prices - but definitely not "discount". And they have
a fuel rewards program.

Having a car is a huge advantage. If I didn't have the Beemer or my old
(now a memory) Foo-Rod Ranger I'd be stuck with Hy-Vee's delivery. That's
not to say it's a bad deal. If I buy U$25 worth of stuff - which ain't
hard to do at today's prices ... Hy-Vee will pick the order, lolad it in
my wheels or deliver it to my door for no more $$$. Tipping the driver
is extra.

Lowe's food stores is a sorta=kinda local to you chain being head quartered in Cigaretteville (Winston-Salem). Lowe's Home Improverment
is somewhat more to the west in Mooresville ... and has spread much further than the grocery stores/

We actually found a Lowe's (grocery) out in Tucumcari, NM. They said they'd no affiliation with the chain but we saw several items that had
the house brand name that the store uses so...........

You've mentioned that before. I believe (IIRC) the store owner's name
was Lowe and so long as they didn't try to duplicate the signage ot
the logotypes there was bugger-all that Lowe's corporate could do
about it.

Still, it was interesting to find a local to us store so far away from their concentration.

Once the sharks .... errrmmm lawyers had finished with it there was/is
a truce in place.

The regional chain is heaqdquartered in Littlefield, TX.

So we might find some more in our western wanderings.

They're in West Texas and South Texas and throughout New Mexico. The
company also operates stores in Colorado, Arizona and Kansas.

Title: Strip Steak Tacos
Categories: Beef, Bread, Fruits, Chilies, Citrus
Yield: 6 servings

MMMMM--------------------QUICK MANGO SALSA---------------------------
1 c Fresh mango
2 tb Chopped red onions
2 tb Chopped red bell pepper
1 tb Fresh cilantro
1 tb Fresh lime juice
1 tb Fresh jalapeno

Looks good but for the cilantro; that's not allowed in the house. (G)

I'm not a huge fan of cilantro but I do use it in some things or they simply don't taste "right". However, it's very easy to overload and
get that Ivory soap taste/feel. And one tablespoon of fresh is very minimal. Even chopped.

Steve can taste the "soap" in even small amounts so it's best left out
of our cooking. I'll tolerate some, but then reach a point where I
don't want any more. That point seems to be resetting lower, the older
I get.

Gotta cook to suit yourself.

Hi Sean,

Steve can taste the "soap" in even small amounts so it's best left out
of our cooking. I'll tolerate some, but then reach a point where I
don't want any more. That point seems to be resetting lower, the older
I get.

I love cilantro. I guess I am in the minority of people where
cilantro doesn't taste like soap. I especially like it in salsa.

There's a lot of you folks out there. I didn't mind it until we were
stationed in Hawaii. Our favorite Mexican restaurant was on the North
Shore; we'd go there and often I'd order a burro, easy on the cilantro.
I think the wait staff didn't convey the latter part to the kitchen; I'd
start eating it and after a few bites, start to pull out leaf after leaf
after leaf after leaf........of that stuff. Somehow they would get
Steve's "no cilantro" order correct.

Title: Corn, Black Bean and Rice Burritos
Categories: Vegetarian, Mexican, Tortillas, Mcrecipe
Yield: 4 Servings

That's another thing rarely in our house thanks to Steve's corn allergy.
I'll (rarely) buy an ear or two of fresh corn on the cob during the
summer but I don't like to eat it in front of Steve, knowing how much he
likes it (but not the migraine that follows). If I'm making my family
friendly chili for a pot luck, I'll put some corn in it, left overs are
either given away or taken home for me to eat.

Which we do. When we get a steak to grill, Steve will split it in half,
start my half a few minutes before putting his on the grill. Neither of
us like the shoe leather we grew up with but a rare (for him) to medium
(for me), seasoned and grilled just right is so good..........
