Family Meals (fwd)

[Laura Larsson]

Friends:

I am posting this from a non-subscriber for your information. (Thank you
Susan).

I would suggest contacting Janice Phelan at the Missouri Nutrition
Network.  They just finished conducting focus groups with food stamp
recipients on this very topic.  Her number is 1-800-733-6251. 

Hope this helps!
