I'm going to assume NL seasonal foods are the same as us over in bongland. Root veg and a joint of cheaper cut of beef on the bone is surely more economical per meal? Shin, Rib, Ox tail?

That particular supermarket is very expensive when it comes to fresh produce. Best to go to the Lidl for that.

They do have very good homebrand products though, the quality is a lot higher than Lidl products for the same price. I usually shop at both. Fruit, nuts, snacks and veggies Lidl, everything else Albert Heijn.

Yeah no shit it's expensive, you're shopping at Albert Heijn, the supermarket jew.
Go to Aldi, Dirk or Lidl for veggies if you're allergic to Turkish shops, buy meat in bulk straight from the source rather than lining the pockets of supermarketstein.
The pasta is the biggest sin on this list, 5 euros for one small bag of tortellinis when you can get two bags for twofiddy at Dirk which are 500g total.

I seriously hope you didn't actually checkout with this.

you can get pasta for 1 euro instead of 5 at any other supermarket
you can get minced meat at (checks bonnetje) 4.30 euro for half a kilo
same shitty cardboard tomatoes are 1.78/kg at dirk
I never buy those paprika driekleur as they're always a scam
So in total you could have the same meal for at least 2x cheaper without even trying very hard.
Also for pasta sauce it's better to get canned tomatoes as they are harvested when ripe instead of harvested when unripe and then gassed with methyl which doesn't even really work.

OP is shopping at a premium grocery store. I live in eastern EU and we have those in our capital (only place where people can afford it). They sell the highest quality foods, many of them sourced locally from farms. They have lot's of premium deli foods like expensive hams and shit. The prices compared to chains like LIDL are at least double, often triple. The shopping experience is the best tho. I prefer the middle ground and go to Billa or Tesco because LIDL is pure dogshit and their stores look like warehouses. TLDR OP doesn't know he's a middle class faggot and is surprised that a premium chain is expensive.

Grocery store tomatoes aren't worth it, compare a garden grown one vs a grocery one and the latter will have zero taste.

If you're not buying meat directly from a rancher a 1/4th at a time, I'm not sure what you're doing. It keeps small scale farmers in business, tastes better, comes out to about $7 /lb for about 100 pounds
while avoiding vacked meat and other globohomo farming practices.

In Canada its almost cheaper to eat fast food or "premade" meals in grocery storea(sandwhiches-chicken-burritos etc.) than buying food and preparing it yourself.

The only way I have found to survive on food is to buy meat on sale from the butcher or grocery store and make meaty soups and stews with veggies that past 2-4 days. The problem is it gets kind of boring after awhile.
