[–] PugJesus@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 child) Man, I buy soda and brand name cereal (store brand tastes like sadness 9/10 times) and still don't hit anywhere close to that. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] ComfortablyDumb@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 year ago (1 child) I can probably give some explanation. We as a household of 3 mainly cooks at home. We get fruits and veggies from costco and farmers markets mainly. The monthly grocery bills are close to 500$ with everything added up. We do try to eat as healthy as possible and cooks majority of the days. A days cooking almost looks like this Breakfast: Eggs/bread/avocado etc Lunch: Rice/Quinoa + salad/stir fry + protein(eggs/fish) Dinner: steel cut oats with yogurt or something similar Some snacks during the day and in the evening Coffee(homemade to reduce cost) Almost everything adds up. Asparagus is almost 5$ a bunch. Spinach adds up to 4$. Milk is close to 7$. At the end of month when we tallied up, it was close to 500$. I dont think we are actually eating that much or even buying a lot of junk.
