Writer spends a week eating only Pams products ahead of National Pams Day
A writer commits to eating exclusively Pams supermarket home brand products for seven days, discovering affordability and quality while honouring her late mother's memory.
To celebrate National Pams Day on August 22, a writer and her three children spent a week eating only Pams branded products from their local supermarket.

The challenge prompted the writer to reconsider her grocery habits and make long-term savings on staple items, while her children became more engaged in cooking and meal preparation.
