I do ~$30 USD a week and my list is much closer to yours than OP. No honey, no broccoli, no corn crisps, no cookies, no beer, I don't get a 63¢/lb. of onions twice, I get more meat*, 8¢ a cup coffee, $1.89 morsels to bake my own cookies, 89¢ celery and carrots, $3.00 cheese, 85¢ loaf of bread, $2.68/lb. butter, $2 bags of potatoes or rice lasting longer than a week, and some 50¢ canned tomato stuff, 60¢ beans, etc. like the OP has to be combined into different dishes.

*Meat feels like my biggest expense next to my cheese. I eat ~1.5 lbs. of $2.19/lb. ground hamburger a week in addition to the cheaper chicken and pork ranging from $0.68/lb. to $2.00/lb. The cheese is without question my big luxury item.

My prices are much better than OP in all categories other than the canned goods, oranges, and oats, which are the same price. Cheaper meat prices shown earlier, I have my $1.64/gal fortified A&D whole milk, two per week as I love the stuff, and 7.5¢ eggs. I usually get the 30¢ per lb. bananas over the oranges. I don't eat a whole can of oats a week. The flour, spices, small bits of baking stuff, sugar and oil are all so low cost they just get absorbed in that $30 over multiple weeks. I mean flour is ~24¢/lb. oil is ~4¢ an ounce, and sugar is ~45¢/lb. or 65¢/lb. for brown.
