King Arthur Flour lowers the price grocery retailers pay for their flours
Baker’s Banter, the King Arthur corporate blog, posted a letter yesterday from Michael Bittel, their senior VP and general manager of the Flour division at King Arthur Flour, announcing an immediate price decrease on flour.
The company is lowering the prices it charges to retailers on it’s Unbleached All Purpose, Unbleached Bread, and Traditional 100% Whole Wheat Flours. So look for lower prices in your local supermarket, and if you don’t see them, don’t blame King Arthur. You should be able to save some dough buying their flour to make your dough.

With the current uncertainties with food prices there is a greater need for us to conserve and be increasingly economical about food consumption at home. We have become wasteful as consumers of food and have never really had a need to feel otherwise before this crisis started. Blaming the rampant consumerism of the supermarkets has now irrelevant in this discussion. The situation now is that if we don’t change our food habits this situation could easily escalate completely out of control. The responsibility is now on us all to change our food buying and food consuming habits.
Simple food saving tips are things we need to get used to and practice more regularly. Most of these are common sense and can be quite creative. You can find a list of free food saving tips at sites such as http://www.foodcrisis.co.uk amongst other similar sites as well.
We all need to contribute to a fairer and more food wise program for ourselves.

This is good news since King Arthur flour is all I use, and I have some great bread recipe’s with dough that can be refrigerated for up to two weeks so that you cqan bake the bread in small amounts!
