Healthy Day, Cont., Weekend Support Requested By The Cambridge Food Pantry: Diced Tomatoes, Dog Food, Vermicelli Mix

by Jon Katz

As I’ve written, food pantries (and the people they serve) do not always have the funds to buy the healthiest organic foods, something many nutritionists don’t know about poverty and food support. She chooses healthy items when she can (often with our help).

I am eager to learn about nutrition and food poverty, and I have found AI software that can do health research and tell me (and you) what the latest research has taught us about the foods we eat.

I use them for my food purchases, and while it is not always possible to get the healthiest food for the pantry – the food nutritionists often love costs five as much as the foods pantries have to serve-I’m sharing what I’m learning.

Today is a healthy day for food support; I hope we can help.

It’s also the second day the pantry has put pet food on the shelves. Although the cat food we put up yesterday has sold out, we still have some dog food left. Thanks for helping launch this popular and essential new Cambridge Amazon Wish List food item.

Today’s weekend items request from Sarah for the Cambridge Food Pantry.

Del Monte Canned Diced Tomatoes with Natural Sea Salt, 14.5 Ounces (Pack of 12), $14,92.

Pasta Roni Garlic & Olive Oil Vermicelli Mix, 4.6-ounce Boxes (Box of 12), $12.00

New: Pet Food In Small Cans: Strong Heart Wet Dog Food Cups, Filet Mignon Flavor in Gravy – 3- 5 Oz Cups (Pack of 12), Made with honest Filet Mignon., $11.42.

 

 

Please consider sending messages of appreciation to the very hard-working volunteers (like Alexis above) at the Cambridge Food Pantry. You can do this on the Amazon checkout page alongside any Amazon donation. It means a lot to them.

From AI Overview: Diced Tomatoes are a good source of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, particularly lycopene. Lycopene is incredibly bioavailable when cooked, such as in canned diced tomatoes, making them a nutritious addition to a family diet. 

From AI Overview: Quaker Life cereal is a healthy breakfast option because it’s a multi-grain cereal that’s high in fiber and protein, and low in sugar. It’s also a good source of calcium and B vitamins. Quakeer Life is on the Pantry Wish List and is urgently needed.
