2 pizzas, a small order of breadsticks, and wanted to splurge and get cinnamon sticks.

Pizzas are a "Buy one get one deal!" at 13 bucks a pizza. Figured what the hell, I'll splurge on desert then with the deal. Get to checkout... hold on a minute.... 50 dollars for pizza?! Wait a minute 80 dollars after fees and taxes?!

Usually I only use Doordash for finding something, then I order direct from the store. I just saw the sweet "buy one get one" deal and thought eh, fine I'm here. Right, that's why I stopped using door dash. I'm not spending 80 dollars on freaking pizza. I'll just go pick it up and spend a quarter of that price.

At least I would have saved the $3 dollar delivery fee. Phew. Thanks DoorDash.

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...

Is skyr some type of nicotine pouch like zyn? 2 euro for a frozen pizza what size? Personal?

[–] chonglibloodsport@lemmy.world 2 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

Where’s the vegetables? Fresh lettuce or spinach? Onions, carrots, celery, broccoli, kale, cucumber, fresh peas, peppers, egg plants….

You’re just eating canned tomatoes and pasta. People get more balanced diet than that at the food bank!

Even, if it's 2€ or 3€ for other people... It does not change the fact that you can create a huge meal for multiple days for a reasonable price.

Even if I consume all the stuff listed by you combined with pasta and tomatoes (as much as a single person can eat), that's still not 80 $/€ a week for me.....

[–] chonglibloodsport@lemmy.world 1 points 36 minutes ago

Fresh vegetables are way more expensive than that where I live. A package of lettuce (good for 3 days) costs $4. A package of bell peppers (3 peppers) costs $8-10.

Allocating $1.50 (CAD, about equal to 1€) to vegetables might get me a head of lettuce and a bit of carrot and onion. Enough to make a basic garden salad. Nowhere near enough to make something nice like a rich vegetable soup!

[–] gigachad@sh.itjust.works 3 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

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.

I think, it's quite obvious that I posted examples and won't write down everything I could possibly eat.
