>I have no idea what they spend their money on, i'm not even autistically frugal like OP

Easy.
$300+ for a car they cannot afford
$200+ for just buying any food they like and not comparing prices or brands
$200+ for having "brand awareness"
$200+ for interest on a credit they took years ago
$50+ for an expensive phone plan

The amount of impulsiveness is quite high on some people. I work as a consultant and need good clothes as well, but e.g. having style does not equal spending money on style. This goes both ways, but many think they need the one to have the other.

i have nothing against vegetarians, infact i respect vegans and vegetarians who are actually able to do it and stay healthy because i think it's a pretty noble thing to do even though i eat meat.

the point i'm trying to make is that the way you eat is literally unhealthy unless you live an extremely sedentary lifestyle that consumes little to no energy. it's the quantity of food you're ingesting, combined with your height and the lower calories from a vegan/vegetarian diet that are concerning.

your body is probably in starvation mode, unless you have some miraculous body that doesn't require much nutrition or something..

depends on what you like and what your region offers. I live in a big city and buy a lot of veggies but I also probably spend more than most people on food any given month since processed food is always cheaper. fruit is the most expensive for it's servings/cost ratio apart from proteins. I dip my fingers in everything, dry beans, vegetables, eggs, seafood and chicken/turkey and beef. I enjoy good food and am not entirely focused on shopping for cheap. if you want to be healthy and cheap your options become more time intensive and limited, >>>/ck/ can probably help out more.

This guy gets it. Eating entirely cheap is monotonous. You can still eat for a good price relatively inexpensively (dependent on country). It is linked to your health and well-being so it is important to be balanced. Lean meats, fish and eggs for protein with a mix of vegetables (onion, garlic and tinned tomatoes are a staple) and different beans. Yoghurt, cheese and seasonings just to pad things out.
