   You could probably use a turkey baster to fill the trays more easily. Just a suggestion. Thanks for the video!

   Thanks for that suggestion! I think that it would be worth a try- creamy style soups (tomato for instance) and other liquids would work great with it. The cheese may be a little thick, but it’s worth trying out.

   a half a can in 2 …
   a half a can in 2 weeks?? Thats not good for you at all. It would be better to just buy a small can or not buy any at all.

7. LVMotty81 Said,

   What I said was …
   What I said was trying our best, we can only go through about 1/2 a can in 2 weeks. Granted, I didn’t include that the entire family who lives near us (there are 10) was trying to find things to use it in.

   This is for information, it’s not to decide what’s good for someone or not. There are many people on budgets for various reasons. What good is a budget if you waste part or all of what you buy? That is what this is for, learning that- Hey! You CAN store such and such! Thanks!

   Thanks for the tip! It never would have ocurred to me to freeze that cheese. I can’t even use a small jar before it goes bad. Instead of using ice cube trays to freeze small batches of stuff, I use small plastic yogurt containers, pop the frozen food out and keep reusing the containers. That way if you’re freezing a couple spoonfuls of something, you end up with a small round disc that you can easily vacuum seal and store.

9. LVMotty81 Said,

   The yogurt …
   The yogurt containers are an excellent tip! I know a lot of people that use them for various things.
   I think in some cases, it depends on what you are storing and how long. If you know you may not use — in the next few weeks, it’s better to vacuum seal, but if you probably will use it soon, then just freezing in a ziplock style bag is probably fine. (If you store this cheese long, use the vacuum sealer!)

    she only leaves them in the cube tray to set to the shape of the cube for 24 hrs. then she pops them out and lines them up in the square tray to store them still in the freezer. THey are frozen in the cubes for proportion purposes……

    A radio show I listen to every now and gives tips, interesting facts, etc.
    Well when listing the worst foods for your health the oozy yellow cheese (like the kind on nachos at the theater) was #1!
    Don’t feed your kids that crap. It will damage their bodies.
    Why not freeze regular cheese slices?

    Thanks for the morning laugh!
    Sorry I wasn’t so clear on that. The soft cheese that we make (and eat) we do so because of ease of making them. You can have a soft style batch (mozzarella or cottage cheese for instance) done in as little as a few hours. Hard cheese (such as cheddar) can take months because of aging.

    We are 45 minutes to an hour. And I know people who live 3 hours from the nearest real grocery store (there are small, family owned type near them that carry basic, overpriced items). We eat mostly soft cheeses due to ease, time it takes and smallish or not batches. Thanks, I think I will be doing a video on cheese making.

19. VeeVeeVeeV Said,

    Wow!! what kind of …
    Wow!! what kind of cheeses do you make and how do you make them? Perhaps you could do a YouTube video on how to make your own cheese – that would be a fantastic helpful household tip.

    How far away do you live from the “warehouse club store” and the “dollar store”?

    thanks for sharing,

    For some people it …
    For some people it is hard to buy “only what you need” at that time (such as being an hour from a grocery store). Our family has a large garden that we eat out of all year- there are things we can’t grow or that are cheaper to buy. Ironically, I make a lot of the cheese we eat. I agree that processed foods are not nearly as healthy as fresh- not everyone has the option to buy or grow fresh all of the time.

    OH MY.GOD…..

    OH MY.GOD…..
    cheese in a can?????
    this is a first for me – I’ve never heard of it.
    how about trying some REAL cheese…… FRESH….. and only buy what you NEED and are going to consume…..
    THAT’S the cheapest – when NOTHING is wasted

    this “bulk buying” system is generally geared to unhealthy processed genetically modified…. yuck food.

    this is an unhealthy food!!!!

    I understand your …
    I understand your position & respect your ambition! I managed the meat department for a large store chain for 20 years & have always been frugal as well. I just want to let people know often bulk is not cheaper. I always consider cost of packaging materials in that too, Ad prices. Sometimes it is cheaper to break down bulk, sometimes it’s not.

23. LVMotty81 Said,

    You are right, for …
    You are right, for some people it’s not worth the time to them. I can break down a can of cheese in about 15 minutes total (plus the 24 hours freeze time). On sale the soup size run about a dollar- it would take 10 of them to make a can I pay less than 6 for. To me personally, the 4 dollars (and not having to run to another store across town) is worth it. Everyone is different.

24. melvyd2 Said,

    Seems more …
    Seems more practical to catch the small soup size campbells nacho cheese on sale & buy a bunch. Cost per ounce would be only slightly higher if at all and save you a lot of time & trouble. Big cans are not always cheaper if you shop ads & consider the time & materials to break them down for storage.

    You are right about that. This is an easy way to preserve food for someone just starting out (or who doesn’t yet know how to can) or who just wants to save a little.
