Is cornstarch alot of money?

Question

Like how much would it cost for a cup

Answer 1

No, not at all. I got a rather large box at Walmart for under $2.00, and you can use it in so much definitely worth it

Answer 2

Since you have so many crock pot suggestions let me suggest an alternative. Ground beef. It cooks quickly and can be added to anything. Choose a pasta and add the ground beef. To that you can add a veggie and pkg brown gravy ( use 3-4 so you won't have dry pasta). You can also buy Ragu brand double cheddar cheese (comes in bottle). You can add that instead of the gravy for a cheesy dish. All of these are like casseroles and only take a few minutes. Inside 20-30 minutes you can have a wholesome meal. Just add bread or salad. You already know about spaghetti ... You can cook ground beef and put it into a casserole dish and then layer on top of it instant mashed potatoes for shepherd's pie. Stick with ground beef it's the quickest. Keep mashed potatoes and rice on hand as it goes with everything. You don't have to be a gourmet to prepare wholesome satisfying meals.

Answer 3

I think 1# costs around $1.00 US A cup would theoretically cost about $0.10 (ten cents) if it were sold in bulk or single unit measure.

Cornstarch has a VERY useful purpose aside from thickening sauces, it can be used in place of powder as it is perfume free and will not irritate like powder can.... apply freely, just remember to buy two boxes!!!

Answer 4

I bought a 16 oz box at walmart earlier for 77 cents

Answer 5

It's quite cheap. It's usually sold in a 16 ounce (one pound) box for under $3.00.

Answer 6

Less than a dollar a pound.

Answer 7

Yup, it's dirt cheap, I even use it to powder down my wetsuits.
