Query: How are you dealing with higher food costs?

The rising cost of milk, eggs, meat and produce are contributing to the biggest jump in food prices in 17 years. Grocery bills are up and restaurant diners will likely face even higher prices on menus.

How are you dealing with food costs? Are you finding creative ways to save when shopping and cooking? What’s the strategy for dining out? Do you go out less or select different restaurants based on cost. Or has nothing changed?

Let’s share with each other. And if you have any cost-cutting recipes send them along, too.

E-mail to food editor Gail Ciampa at gciampa@projo.com. We’ll take submissions until Monday, Jan. 21 and they’ll be posted on www.projo.com/food as they come in. A wrap of your responses and advice will run in Lifebeat Food on Wednesday, Jan. 30.
