>mfw $44 worth of groceries
remind me again how it is that people can't afford to eat healthy? i could have probably trimmed it down to $30 if i got spinach instead of my meme greens, no powdered donuts, no mango, beans instead of avocados, the cheapest eggs money can buy, store brand cottage cheese instead of name brand greek yogurt, etc.
Are people just stupid?

High calorie
You did 1/3 of your shopping correctly. You're still bad.

it's about calories per dollar for me since i'm in pretty good shape and i don't eat like a hog. avocados are great and they're filling.. i eat lots of avocados and olive oil m8. you could also say
>fruit
sugar
like some people do. peanutbutter has 3g sugar per 2 tbsp which is fairly negligible. you're right about the donuts and yogurt, however. cottage cheese would be the more appropriate choice.

Yeah, he's a faggot. You did okay. How long will it last you?

that's enough chicken thigh for about 3-4 dinner's worth (2lbs), enough eggs for 3 breakfasts, cereal and fruit for three more plus pb&j for work and fruit for snacks.
combined with my weekly large pizza, that's about a week's worth of food.
Where's the beef, potatoes and bread?
>>7763719
You can make your own bread.
But yeah where's the cheap starches nigger?
>>7762582
I hope you have tons of other shit in the house to go with that, otherwise you're gonna eat all of that in like 2 days

cheap starches are bullshit, senpai.. tthey're the same as sugar.
>$44
>Like two days worth of food tops
Quick trip to the shop, just needed tomatoes and greens, bought pancetta because I thought of making carbonara tomorrow
I went yesterday. Obviously, I already put the stuff away but I got:
a gallon of milk
a half pound of pâte
a loaf of rye
2½lbs of spinach
1lb of herb celery
a pound of bamboo shoots
5lbs of potatoes
2lbs of mushrooms
4lbs of popping corn
a bag of dill pickle potato chips
It was just shy of $30. $29something.
I don't usually buy potato chips, but I love dill pickle ones and hadn't seen them in a while, so I nabbed a bag. And I ran out of popcorn recently, so I stocked up for another couple years of popcorn (last time I bought popcorn, Obama's hair was still black).

Ignoring the fact that you haven't really done any exceptionally healthy shopping here:
1. They don't live near a proper grocery store. The stores around them sell minimal produce and mostly pre-packaged foods.
2. They don't own or have access to reliable transportation.
3. They have to feed more than themselves. $44 per person per two days for a family of five is insanely expensive.

When I was poor and lived in a shitty apartment, there was also:
4. Not having access to a proper/clean kitchen. Your options for what you can cook go down dramatically if you don't have working equipment. You can't buy cookware, a working stove top and/or oven, or cleaning supplies with food stamps.
