[@dawnsullivan7325]

the food waste in this country is sooo sad!!! prayers to the food Bank lady!!!

[@shootingstars2000]

Made me cry because my dad has dementia. It's very heartbreaking. I'll pray for her. I love your channel. ❤

[@capricornfairy624]

Mama to all homestead and mama Baird are both wonderful! No one should ever say anything negative about utilizing a food bank…EVER! Food banks throw away metric tons of food and what’s not sent to a landfill is fed to farm animals! Just look how much food is rescued from the trash in places like NYC. It’s absolutely absurd anyone would leave you such a comment! Just found your channel 😊 thank you for sharing

[@jennifermunn6898]

I just love your family so much! Your heart is so big!! I hate you feel you have to explain yourself for 5 minutes due to comments left by others that are not so nice, the fact you take vegetables to give back to food bank ❤❤ shows your heart and how you broke down on that nice lady losing her husband had me in tears too❤I have another person I watch for food bank hauls well I watch a few but he said someone commented about him having a dog!!! A dog! I thought at what point is that there business!! People now and days get so brave behind a keyboard and I am sorry you deal with that ❤great haul and video ❤🎉

[@melissalee1531]

Bless her heart ! I will pray for her !

[@rubbyhill2]

Honey what a great haul. Everyone like treats.Ill take the treats, meats all of it. Thanks for Sharing. Prayers to this kind lady and husband.

[@z.kaminitskym6396]

Thank you for sharing your information. Bless

[@kwhiteley8951]

I’m sorry people leave comments that seem so judgmental. Those items you get are often expensive as well and they’re fun foods that kids love. Everything in moderation. As a volunteer at a food kitchen, I’ve seen the amount of food waste. We’d give so much away and they’d still pass stuff on to the volunteers. I was blown away by how much goes to waste. I appreciate you sharing these videos. Sometimes I just get to see some good ideas and some of the items you get I can’t ever find in my grocery store ! Take care ❤

[@evelynmcdonald9981]

What a great haul!!! God bless you and your family and praying 🙏 for that dear lady!!!

[@AmbrosiaBellis]

You see her tell her my love and prayers are with her always and your family too❤❤

[@starneeley173]

It's a shame people put others down cause someone needs help. They need to pray they never need help. Karma is a witch. My prayers for your family

[@karenchandler8325]

Sending prayers for your family and for your friend😊

[@genevievemeza7467]

You are so Awesome. I love that you give back to your community 💕 Prayers 🙏🏼 to the lady at the food back.

[@jeffdenawright6230]

Send the mean trolls back under their bridges , you are amazing woman

[@sarahtearle9332]

And sending so much love and prayers and strength to the wonderful food bank lady

[@jmknudsen5357]

The "junk food" is still food that your kids can eat. It keeps them from feeling deprived and is a fun variety.

[@Rebecca-zp4gm]

It’s crazy with grocery prices on some bits. Unfortunately due to my health issues i can’t eat fruit and veg etc. enjoy the food. My grandma is in a home for dementia. It’s so hard with dementia and the losing battle. Get the kids to make cards for the lady at the food bank. Sending hugs to her too.

[@uncledick9445]

I'm curious as to what health issues would cause a person unable to eat fruits and vegetables?

[@colleenstromatt4041]

You are a good person!

[@birgittacarlson7537]

Hello my friend. 🌿Do not care about those who whine, I and many with me think you are great.🥰 I look forward to your videos. It's good to have a little junk-food,🥨 we all like it sometimes. Then you can buy other things that you need. Prayers for the food-bank lady. Big hug, Take care! Birgitta.🍁🌻🍁

[@stephaniebarsic7082]

Wow so many great things u got

[@janetfuhrmaneck3149]

I feel like you make pretty healthy choices for the junk food. Most of it is organic and dark chocolate and nuts. Yummy. I would have to have a stash of that 😊.

[@nonas8480]

There maybe a lot of junk food but there also is healthy food aswell. Sometimes it happens but either way it’s a blessing with what you receive ❤

[@JohnAckerman31]

Such a great video! I just discovered your channel, and you really have some great content. You just earned yourself a subscriber! My prayers are with you and your family. Keep up the good work!

[@traceye.1367]

I look forward to all your videos. All the information that you give to us is very useful. My husband and myself have prediabetes so we are able to use alot of your tips and recipes. I know its hard but just ignore the naysayers.

[@Godisgoode]

🙏🏾 prayer said for her family and yours🙏🏾

[@desertfamilyhomestead3127]

Hugs to your food pantry friend, my mother and my father in law had dementia and it is rough, only person I could leave my mother home alone with was my daughter and she was 15 so I tried not to do that very often so I just stayed home all the time with her.

[@karenjones1897]

really great variety of everything! hope life is treating you well. if possible, give your friend at the food pantry a little hug from me. we've had some sadness going on here too. spreading the love and caring.

[@stephaniesemmel8760]

I always enjoy your hauls and seeing what kind of interesting things you get! Prayers for your family and the lady from the food pantry. ❤

[@JenniferGlade]

Sending you and your friend prayers 🙏 💜

[@belindascountryliving]

Thank God for food pantries i go twice a month, im raising two grandsons teenagers now and they can eat

[@lilybailey5349]

The main thing is not to be hungry. Food banks do a great job trying to support as Many people as they do. Ignore the negative comments. Take care ❤

[@lorilxn1597]

It saves you money on snacks for the kids and you and husband. I give any snacks I get to my daughter for the grandkids. Every little bit hel0s. 😊

[@healthyliving9601]

I rarely buy junk food, so if I get “junk food” from food banks my kids go crazy 😅. I stopped going for a bit cuz we had extra money. I started going again. The fresh fruits help a lot

[@brookkeeling1343]

I don’t see all junk I see things to make meals out of it’s the way people cook as well

[@nodaknorskie1486]

They have made it easier to qualify for disability or even a partial disability. Speak with an attorney who specializes in disability. They take the case at their risk, on a contingency. Good luck.

[@Gardeningchristine]

A guy who worked with my mom got on disability for alcoholism, no joke, kept coming in drunk and got fired and actually got on disability.

[@LadyCin611]

Lovely haul.

[@welcometomysecret6423]

Yes but all kids deserve a little junk food 😂😂😂 and yes it’s crazy fruit and veg cost so much I am lucky our food bank gives lots of fruit and veg . ❤❤

[@Angie-s5w]

So sad to hear about the Food Pantry lady's husband.. Prayers for them both!

[@angelafleming3328]

Great haul you and I are very similar. I have health issues lots of autoimmune issues I may qualify at some point for disability I have psoritic arthritis and so I have lots of joint pain I just went to the doctor because I wasn't feeling well and was achy all over they found out I had e-coli and I had to go on antibiotics but my body went into a full on flair every joint hurt and I could barely move it was a rough 10 days but now I am getting around with 1 knee thats hurting which is my normal pain at this point. It would be very hard for me to go back to work my husband is in late stage dementia at 51 and my son is autistic and I have to be around to pick him up from school if he is having a bad day! So I am a caregiver when I am not being cared for😅.

[@weepingwillowhomestead]

Bless you love. I pray for healing and peace for your whole household. ❤️

[@Gardeningchristine]

I know they are expensive to start but the rechargeable AA batteries have been great. I have a set that’s probably 10 years old and they’re still charging. I have an old cd walkman and with my kids devices that use AAs we’ve gotten at least 4 sets but have probably saved hundreds in batteries.

[@simplyfromscratchrecipes]

It is always sad to me when people have to take the first part of their videos to defend their choices on what works or helps their own families. Too many like to judge without trying to understand or show compassion, which can be done by just not saying anything negative. You are doing what is needed to help your family and there is absolutely nothing wrong with it. ❤ Will be praying for the food bank lady, we are watching how hard it can be to care for someone with dementia through our Pastor, whose mother has it, definitely a hard thing to walk through.

[@jillboyd6598]

Ignore the mean things that people say. You are doing great with your channel and it's a way for you to help your family. People will always say rude things. It's junk mail, throw it out.

[@colettebishop2173]

I like rose asa flavour, but you can take the yoghurt and for each tub of yoghurt, 2 cups flour, 1 cup oil, 1 cup sugar, 2 tsp baking powder, 3 eggs. Makes a lovely moist cake. Add vanilla, spices, fruit or whatever as flavour if plain yoghurt.

[@rebeccamiller3547]

Siete is such an amazing brand. Their dip chips are sooo good! I’m surprised no one was getting them. They fly off the shelves at my grocery store!

[@andreaontour8961]

I would love to eat the rose yoghurt! If nobody in your family likes it, instead of throwing it away you could mix it in your smoothies! 😋

[@weepingwillowhomestead]

By the time each of us took a bite, it was mostly gone anyway. Lol

[@andreaontour8961]

@@weepingwillowhomestead How was it?😋

[@weepingwillowhomestead]

@@andreaontour8961 not my cup of tea but a couple of the kids didn't mind it.

[@debclevinger7233]

I thought the rose flavored yogurt was a candle! 😮

[@justnina8023]

Hey. I am back ❤

[@laurac5451]

i got a bag of green bacteria oranges this summer I threw it out. I love wymans frozen fruit i throw it in oatmeal

[@sarahtearle9332]

It breaks my heart you feel you have to explain why your using a food bank,, please ignore stupid peoples comments ,, im so glad u got all those wonderful things for your family 😊

[@healthyliving9601]

Inflation is killing us 😢. We also don’t get “help”. Food banks rarely have income limits. Though lately my food bank has been closing early and I’m thinking more people need help now due to inflation

[@annamaria8755]

Food banks in my area absolutely have income limits.

[@annacassidy4986]

Don't listen to the people who complain...it's not like they eat junk 24/7...lf you look at their pantry,l bet it's worse...

[@HillaKarpalo]

Food banks get what is given and ones gotta eat. They and people getting the food do their best from it and judging for what people get is just so odd. This is time of food crisis and it seems to worse there. Let people eat, than starve or be miserable. Just continue doing what you are doing, it’s okay.

[@deniseparks1554]

Giving her treats so she can use her money for groceries is a good thing.

[@angelakear1697]

Just wondering have you had a endoscopy or colonoscopy to check your gastrointestinal tract ? My sister died at 27 from colon cancer, so I am a firm believer in tests. They could have saved my sister.

[@laurac5451]

If you get an EBT card you can get meat and vegetables.

[@JeanBenton-zj2bj]

Please don't waste time explaining yourself! It's nobody's business but your own.

[@karenm7433]

Those expiration dates are completely arbitrary and meaningless anyway

[@JaneLake-sl9xl]

Can them tomatoes

[@kathykb8123]

Haters are gonna hate. You cant please everyone. Dont even try lol.

[@JaneLake-sl9xl]

I'd get food from panty when I'd need

[@junemurphy6293]

The majority of things I have seen in your videos is you taking a lot more of the kind of things that nobody else takes. Yes you get some junk but as you say, the groceries you do buy does not include the junk food

[@toniried1897]

It is no one's business if you buy or eat junk food
