if i really had to make do. and cut out luxury items. i could get by on less than 120$.
costco saves some of the money (stores sell meat too expensive) for ground beef.

Beans would be more cost effective, since they would actually fill you up.

Never understood how people could live in ramen, is have to eat one every hour or two

Do you literally never eat anything not home cooked?

I dont even see how thats possible. I spend $300 on food just to feed myself. I eat a lot but not a ton.

Yeah that's what I'm saying. It's $300 alone just for the subs. When you throw in everything else, you can easily be approaching $1000 a month on food.

The guys in this thread must be eating ramen and sucking on ketchup packets from the local fast food joint.

$100 is only ~$3/day on food. I dont see how people can feed themselves on that.

Wendys 4 for $4 is my go to cheap fast food meal and thats already more than that.

$300 on food? I can't see how anyone can manage that, my live in sushi chef alone costs me $2,000 per month.

In all seriousness though, with smart shopping, cooking and meal prepping you can get the cost per meal per person down to a couple dollars pretty easily.

Buying fast food is expensive.

Buy a bunch of raw meat and a massive bag of rice. That will be like 20 bucks and will last you like a dozen meals.

Meat is simple protein and fat and rice is a simple carb. It's very healthy. Just have some fruits and veggies and you basically have a balanced diet.

I mean I guess you will have to eat like a "peasant" if you don't want to be obese and have a six pack.

So do you just drink tap water, never have snacks, not count laundry, toothpaste, haircare, etc?

TC specified food, so I don't know why you're bringing up toothpaste and things like that.

Sometimes people accidentally swallow toothpaste, so we should at least be fair and add $.40 to the total.

Groceries cost me an average of 300 to 400 a month. I barely ever eat fast food, first it's too expensive and second, I actually like cooking.
Also, eating subway each day sure isn't the best diet. But hey, it's your body and your money, but as others pointed out, don't complain food is expensive when you make such bad meal decisions.
