You can get a weeks worth of groceries for 80 bucks? Doubt (x).
Cooking for yourself and not eating out ever, and my bill from Aldi rarely is above $50, just buy seasoning as you go. I make a week's worth of food on one day a week, freeze most of it, and then just reheat it in a microwave.
Yup. I'd make a tray of lasagna, in my bachelor days, and it would last me about 4 days. Of course I'd be really tired of lasagna by then lol
Man.......I just spent a month cooking chicken, and freezing it. My freezer is FULL of frozen chicken in ziplock baggies. I'd buy 6 packs of chicken, which have 4-5 pieces each. I'd cook 1 pack a night for a week, and on my off day go buy 6 more packs for next week.
Then I'd throw them in the freezer individually in ziplocks.
I work Sunday-Thrusday. So on Friday, I pull 5 chickens down to the fridge to thaw, and that's ready by sunday. Then every day I just grab 1 chicken to bring to work. Aldis also sell lunch meats, but they have reusable containers. So I bought these condiment cups with sealable lids, fill each of them with BBQ sauce. Put the chicken still frozen in the ziplock into the former lunchmeats tupperware. Then put the bbq sauce up in. Seal the tupperware, and stack them 5 high like that. Then Sunday before work, I just reach in, grab one tub, and throw it in my bag. My bag also has some fruit, and some little snacks inside another lunchmeats tupperware. Just grab 2 tubs. throw them in my bag, and it's ready for me.
Adulting!
......cries.
You can get a weeks worth of calories plus a multivitamin for $80
Where can't you?
The USA. What are you buying 20lb bag of rice and 20lbs of beens?
With 80€, I get around 2 weeks of groceries in Germany for 1 person... Almost free highest quality tap water, no breakfast, bread with something on it for lunch, something for dinner that results in leftovers for 1-2 days...
Only if your eat like a monk. That's 5.71€ per day
Well... I'm not feeling like I'm missing anything... My meat consumption is pretty low by the way...
1 kg Spaghetti = 2 € reduced price
1.5 kg Tomatoe puree = 3.50 € reduced price
Let's assume 1€ for all the other non-meat stuff you put in there...
Voila, Spaghetti Napoli... This is enogh food for me for lunch + dinner, lunch + dinner on the next day and lunch the day after for only 6.50 € total.
A frozen Pizza is like 2 € (reduced price)...
A large bread is a few €s, but is enough for multiple days...
500 gram Skyr = 1.50 € and is sometimes enough for me for lunch. Add a few flakes and it's maybe 2 €...
If I'd want to reach the stated 80€ a week, I kind of have to eat in a restaurant or invite more people...
If you decide to only eat plain tomato with pasta, and that for 14 days, yep that's possible. You are still eating like shit, and that is far from a balanced nutrition.
