I have $10 to spend. I challenge you to make me have it last longer than 3 days for food. Also the food must be tasty and it must be a non-generic recipe
>hi I'm op I'm going to ask for help but then demand your suggestions fit my own requirements that I could be using myself to do my own research
Fuck off giant faggot op
>>7559024
I've done a ton of research and I can't get anything but generic bullshit that I wouldnt eat or jury-rigged nasty NEET shit like ramen + refried beans
I'd not be asking here if I didn't already try
>>7559024
/thread
>>7559030
im sorry
>>7559017
Canned chunky soup and chili.
Canned food gives you some nice variation and cheapness
>>7559036
OP asked for something that isnt generic. Even when I was starving canned soup tasted like shit
>>7559028
Almost like quality of food and price are somehow tied together?
If you could easily eat well on like $3.5 a day people would do it.
>>7559017
>3.3 dollars a day for food
>nothing cheap
Hmm OP that's a tough one. How about you just don't eat for 2 days and treat yourself to some chipotle for day 3. Repeat this for a couple months and you'll save money and drop to a reasonable weight
>>7559017
Broccoli, carrots, potatoes, onions, eggs, parsley and chicken stock cubes. Get creative with those ingredients.
That is how I survived my first year of college without a job.
>>7559028
>good tasting food
>cheap
>nutritious
You can only really have 2. Pretty much anything that's good tasting and will actually sustain you is gonna cost more than 3 dollars.
There's lots that are cheap and nutritious, but while you can make them somewhat palatable, you arn't gonna be living well on them.

BAM!
You're welcome OP
>>7559091
Not OP but pretty much all of those ingredients are at lest 2-3x the prices you listed even at walmart
>>7559096
>Used my local walmart for pricing.
Come on now.
>>7559091
>1lb Chicken: $1.13
Where on earth do you find that?
All of these prices seem absurdly low, but that one hit me the most.
>>7559098
where else is OP supposed to get it? Publix?
>>7559101
I'm not the savviest shopper, but yeah, a 3LB box of meh-tier frozen chicken breasts is like $20 here.
>>7559091
If those ingredients were that cheap people would be doing precisely what you posted
Pro-tip: They aren't.
A lb of chicken is AT LEAST $3.50 and you sure as shit arent getting 5lbs of potatoes for two bucks. A baguette for $1.00?
Bananas are on point though
>>7559017
rice beans a tank of NO2 some tubing and the plastic bag you carried your dried rice and beans in.. steal some tape...
>>7559112
>you sure as shit arent getting 5lbs of potatoes for two bucks.

>>7559112
>and you sure as shit arent getting 5lbs of potatoes for two bucks.
im in canada, and we get 5 lbs for 2 bucks on sale often, with 10 pounds going on sale for 3 bucks sometimes, i make potato+vegetable soup 4 times a week sometimes.
>>7559131
confirmed for newfag
>>7559112
Bitch, chicken thighs were $0.89/lb and spuds were 3LB for $2.99.
3 lbs of chicken, bag of potatoes, bag of onions and bag of flour OP, you can eat chicken pies and fresh bread every day for a week
>>7559132
Breasts are what are in most recipes so what do you expect us to do? Also most people will avoid bones if possible

This is the cheapest they have near me guys

>A baguette for $1.00?
>>7559017
10 dollars for 3 days? this is not even easy mode, this is the tutorial
>>7559165
>out of stock
The it's irrelevant to this conversation
>>7559186
>An item that gets restocked daily is out of stock.
>Can't count it anymore.
Walmart's 'fresh baked' pizzas in the deli or next to the veggie section.
I catch the XL ones at discount for $3.xx and last 3-4 meals.
>>7559236
Yea, it seemed to be the equivalent of an XL Papa John's. There may be different sizes though. IIRC, it was $3.4x.
Call that lunch, oatmeal for breakfast, then $3 of rice and veggies for dinner?
>>7559143
If you are too god damn stupid to be able to substitute one meat for another in a recipe, your dumb ass needs to die....let me guess, you were raised by a single mom; kill your self faggot
>>7559307
>you were raised by a single mom
I was, but that doesnt guarantee my dad would have taught me the specific skillset you attack me for not having
