Rising Grocery Prices? It's Time to Get Back to Basics in the Kitchen

With grocery prices reaching record highs, many households are feeling the squeeze. From eggs to fresh produce, food costs have surged, leaving consumers searching for ways to make every dollar count. In the face of this challenge, a growing movement is urging people to return to the fundamentals of cooking-meal planning, smart shopping, and reducing food waste.

That's where Intro to Food comes in. More than just a guide, Intro to Food is a practical resource for anyone looking to navigate today's costly grocery landscape with confidence. Written for college students learning to cook for the first time, the book has quickly found an audience beyond campuses, resonating with families, empty-nesters, and even seasoned home cooks who recognize that we're all lifelong learners in the kitchen.

"Cooking isn't just about following a recipe-it's about knowing how to stretch ingredients, store food properly, and make smart purchasing decisions," says MJ Lacombe, author of Intro to Food. "With food prices this high, understanding the basics is more important than ever. This book helps people take control of their kitchen, no matter their experience level."

The book covers essential topics like how to shop strategically, plan meals to minimize waste, and cook efficiently on a budget-all with a friendly, non-intimidating approach. It's not a cookbook but a precursor to one, laying the groundwork for anyone looking to improve their skills and make the most of every grocery run.

Whether you're a student, a parent, or just someone who wants to reclaim your kitchen from inflation's grip, Intro to Food is the guide to help you get started. After all, learning to cook isn't just a phase-it's a lifelong skill that pays off every time you step into the grocery store.
