Rice you can buy a huge sack for 10$ instead of that tiny weak bag for 6$. I can eat for about 20$ a week and do fine, even with some more expensive food.

I brought good jasmine rice imported from thailand from the grocery store in chinatown.

25 pound bag for 23 dollars. Not cheap.

In the OP you see a 2 pound bag of shitty brown rice for probably 3 or 4 dollars.

She probably got that from the 400% markup 'family grocery' store at the end of the road in her gated community.

I could get 4x that for 29 dollars.

>ALL THOSE FUCKING LIMES

29 bucks doesn't go very far, totally true, but whoever bought that shit is fucking retarded. If you're on food stamps, you should be getting the cheapest vegetables and fruits possible, and spending most of your money on cheap-assed staples like potatoes and rice. Also, where are the fucking BANANAS? You can get ten pounds of Bananas for like six dollars, and they're good as FUCK for you. Some bread, cheese and deli meat also wouldn't be too much and would cover your food for the week pretty easily. Eat celery and carrots (relatively cheap) for fiber.

I'm pretty fucking certain that families get more than 29 dollars a week for food on EBT. I've seen people buy way more than that on EBT cards in my state; but I live in a pretty liberal place.

Anyway, this is why I'd rather live with my parents forever than move out and be poor. My mommy buys or pays for all of my food.
>>

these are suburban housewives, what do you expect? people are too fucking dumb to buy a big bag of rice or potatoes. instead they get these shitty ass small packages.

She's rich, so she doesn't even know what poor people actuallly do to maximize their money. First of all, no one with a very limited budget would get brown rice, but white rice (and the cheap, agranel kind)

They are good if you put them into a frying pan for like 30 seconds, prefer them over flour, and i think they are cheaper

Peanut butter and potatoes are good, too. Idk why she has limes and an avocado, or just one corn. Corn is cheap as hell, and only one?

This.

You could get over 50 packets of top ramen for 29 dollars, too.

Avocado is homofeed and tastes like trash.

I'd rather live with mommy because I'm poor, but enjoy literally the gayest fruit on the planet. It's what hipsters eat to impress other homosexual men.

I hate how rich white people have no idea how being poor works. You eat 1 thing thats the menu for the month and whatever you dont finish gets added into your pantry and you change up the thing every month.
Nigger spent 10 days worth of ramen on limes like you were gonna shove them up your ass for sexual pleasure.

>>25319880

what she doesn't mention is that $30 a week would be for a family of 1, not a family or 3 or more people. the average SNAP benefit for a family of 3 (1 mother (let's be honest) & 2 kids) is $374 a month or $90 a week. it's still not a ton of dough, but you can easily feed a family of 3 on $15 a day if you shop at places like aldi and are smart buying in bulk, and also you're getting it for fucking free so stop complaining about it.

if your family is really fucking starving there's always the food pantry or the soup kitchen, or you could even, god forbid, get a job. we don't live in fucking zimbabwe.
>>
>>25319880

that shouldn't add up to be $29. she probably used the numbers from some high-end hipster grocer.

I mean no one needs that many limes a week.

I see literally nothing wrong with this.

this is more than a week's worth of food. Fuck, I can buy a thing of oatmeal that will last me two weeks for like a couple dollars. Want breakfast? There, oatmeal and eggs.

bitch don't know how to shop.

And we all know full well that tons of SNAP recipients end up spending it all in a week or two on hot/prepared foods because fuck actually saving money when the government gives handouts. I'm all for helping the poor, but come the fuck on, the next time I see someone buying subs in wawa with EBT I'm gonna flip shit.

at my grocery store, we regularly put a dozen eggs on sale for .99 each and in Texas we have no tax on food items.

.99 for 12 eggs.
>>
>>25320493

it's not real. you can spend your EBT card on pretty much any food products except alcohol.

a lot of niggers will go to a sketchy ass bodega in the ghetto and will literally just have them ring up a bunch of fake stuff and then give them half the money they "spent" back in cash and they'll go buy crack with it.

>all that weirdo organic shit
>7 fucking limes

I'm a solo NEET and my food budget is about 50 NZD a week. That bitch probably only barely has a week's worth of food, and there's nothing you could make out of that that would taste very good once she's used up the tomato. My own weekly diet consists of cereal(not sugar shit) for breakfast, Ham + tomato + lettuce +much more sandwiches for lunch, and usually some kind of curry, chilli, stew, or whatever that can be stretched out for a week for dinner. And on top of all of that I usually have enough money left over for a block of chocolate, some cookies, and a tub of ice cream. I'm perfectly healthy, only idiots who can't cook fall for the "poverty = shit food" meme.

Keyword for anyone who is super poor and just wants a cheap calorie source; BANANAS

Bananas are so fucking cheap for the amount of calories they provide. At local supersaver type store they are like 50 cents for a BUNDLE of 5. One banana is at least 100 calories and has other nutrients as well.

You can do a lot with bananas, like baking if you have some flour or doing some fancy Thai shit with rice or frying them. Add soy/tofu to fill in the protein gap and some lettuce and spinach and you have a complete diet.

could save money by buying white rice instead of whole grain.

same with most of those things.

who needs 7 fucking limes a week anyway?
>>
>>25321224
>enough money left over for a block of chocolate, some cookies, and a tub of ice cream

Pro tip: bake your own cookies. It's piss easy and the only expensive ingredient is the choc chips. Everything else is either dirt cheap (flour, baking soda) or stuff you probably already have (sugar, butter, eggs). You can make a ridiculous amount of batter for a few bucks and it keeps for weeks so you can bake a fresh batch every day.

I could eat better than that for $0 a day.
