Just read the labels. You can get natural or artificial extracts.


I think I've become an expert label reader, lol. Have seen natural vanilla, but haven't looked for others so I'm a 'newbie' there.

Sorry to return to the original post here...

anyone else who finds their bill never goes below $150 minimum for family of three? We buy minimum in meat and chicken, but are big on veggies, fruit, and milk items - and we only buy whole wheat. Rare nosh and takeout, too, and most 'non food' is Costco stuff.... so this is just basically veg, fruit, whole wheat, and dairy. Am I mad?

I pay more than that for our family of 3. But then again, part of the bill is for papergoods and cleaning products.

Everything is pretty expensive lately. And prices mainly go up.

I used to buy shampoo, for example, at Family Dollar, and only pay 77 cents. Then I started shopping at Target and gettig the huge sizes .. now I am back to FD and there are no more 77 cent bottles; some of them are $2 now !!
