Practicing Rationing



April 15, 2020


I just read that there may be food shortages coming due the economic slowdown caused by COVID-19. Prices could rise. Of course, it’s not a firm prediction, so don’t panic. But:

Maybe we should all practice rationing, in case it comes to that for real. Get out those old Depression-era cookbooks, with recipes that talk about how to feed a family on a potato and a handful of beans.

Just make sure to bring the spices. I’ve read some of those recipes, and they’re pretty bland.
