Having food storage is great, but knowing how to use it is where it really helps you. Over the last few months I have found that I save a great deal of money by substituting something I already have in my food storage for something I need in a recipe but don't have. I save money because I'm not running to the store to buy the exact product the recipe calls for, and I can rotate my food storage. It has also helped my family eat healthier and be more efficient. I find that usually my substitutes are cheaper to use on a regular basis, and it makes my food taste great too.
