What foods are the best value?

[snafu]

couscous, orzo, barley, lentils are all fast, easy to cook and filling. They extend soup, act as a side dish or form a casserole with whatever you have left over.

I get mine at aldi's, or get similac brand at the grocery store. My favorite place is the amish general store which has it in 10, 15 and 20 lb boxes. I can freeze the powder until I need it.
