So this is the power of cup noodles + canned tuna. It is a combination that has fueled the poverty stricken masses for many generations, and they used this fuel well to climb out of the trenches of our capitalist society (or they didn't and now theyre 25yo like me and still eating this stuff).

My recipe:
Tuna (.60-.90 per can), Cup noodles ($2-3 for 12 pack),Frozen Veggies ($6 for mixed pack)

>cook noodles and drain completely
>cook veggies and add them too
>open can of tuna and mix that shit

Not the best tasting food in the world, but you will get decent nutrients.

It always triggers me that this kind of thing is what people think is the most money-efficient way to eat. If you're actually poor and really need to skimp on food expensed, you should be eating according to a spreadsheet where you minimize costs and maximize calories and nutrition.

I'm very sure you can get good nutrition for less than 5$ per day anywhere in the US. First and foremost you calculate the calories per dollar and grams of protein per dollar for food. 2000kcal per $ is good. Under 1000kcal per $ is bad. 50g of protein per $ is good. Grain-based foods would be most of what you eat. Rolled oats is amazing pretty much everywhere, really high calorie, moderate amount of protein and dirt cheap. Definitely no meat of any kind, possibly eggs. Fruits and vegetables are mostly out too because they are so low calorie, but you'd eat a bit of whatever's cheapest and most effective nutritionally, most likely cabbage. Protein powder, bought in bulk quantities is actually cheap. When Myprotein.com has a "buy 3 pay for 2" you can get their whey concentrate for the cheapest. Also their soy isolate when it's offered as "buy 2 get one for free" is really efficient too. An excellent protein powder is one that gives 100g of protein per $. A multivitamin is the cheapest way to get all the micronutrients you need.

Why would you eat carbs at all if you wanna minimize cost and maximize calories?
Only protein and fat are essential macronutrients.
If you've got the minimum amount of protein necessary covered, you can just fill up the calories with fat or oil.

[Anonymous No.10604201]

>>10604118
Because the only food that provides almost nothing but protein cheaply is protein powder. And getting all your protein from protein powder is not the cheapest solution because there are foods that can provide protein along with calories.
And the foods with the absolute highest calories per dollar are high carb foods like flour and oats. These carb-containing foods come with cheap protein. The most expensive part of food is protein. Oats especially is a fantastic cost-minimizer since it provides both calories and protein at a low price. Reducing the choices of foods to zero or low carb alternatives further increases the cost of protein in the diet; a cost-minimized ketogenic diet will be more expensive than a cost-minimized carb-allowing diet.

[Anonymous No.10604254]

>>10604201
Oats are 0.40eu here for 500g, providing 5000kcal/eu.
Sunflower oil is 1.20eu for 1l, providing 7500kcal/eu.
But I understand your point about getting "free" protein with that oatmeal and getting none with the oil.

[Anonymous No.10604310]

>>10604254
Also, it's hardly necessary to aim for absolute minimum cost at the price of malnutrition. Again using oats as the example, they also provide mandatory fat and fiber along with the protein and calories. It's actually quite cheap to eat an adequately healthy diet (something that is better than what 95% of the population eats). Though the main reason you can do that is because almost everyone makes awful eating choices and very few will be so autistic toward optimizing their diet.

Cost mainly. It would be stupidly expensive. Meat has an awful calories per dollar and grams of protein per dollar value. The one exception is chicken thigh legs or chicken breast (depending on where you live) which are merely ok.

But as for the fiber thing. I'm not sure myself. The evidence is pretty good that it's good to eat fiber but the evidence for eating zero fiber being either bad or also fine is lacking. So you can be pretty sure that eating fiber is ok for yourself but uncertain whether eating none would beok. It likely depends on the person. I tried eating a low-fiber ketogenic diet one time and tore my asshole from the constipation that resulted. The point of this anecdote is to say that, it wasn't ok for me, therefore it won't be ok for everyone. But it is possible (due to lack of evidence for the contrary) that it could be ok for you.

Oh yeah, about vegetables. They aren't strictly speaking necessary. It is indeed cheaper to get micros from supplements. But I'm moderately certain that getting all your micros from whole foods would be slightly better. The question is how much better which is unknown. The main effect of the betterness is non-essential nutrients. All those substances that various foods have been found to contain that maybe do something good to your body are the thing. Perhaps a lot of them do very little. But there are lot of these possibly beneficial non-essential substances.
Also, there is the very likely possibility that we don't know every nutrient that is essential. Probably eating a varied assortment of vegetables, fruits and many other things will get you everything you really need to be healthy.

>>10604396
>How much fiber did humans >10,000 years ago eat?
I think this really isn't well known.
>Didn't they basically eat an all meat and fish diet?
Some did, some didn't. People in different areas ate different diets and, thus, also adapted to different diets. As I understand, modern day inuits (who eat a shitload of meat and fat) have a different metabolism that is adapted to being healthy with that diet. What kind of metabolism did the people who were your ancestors have? Who knows? The paleo argument isn't such an obvious thing in my opinion. It's not obvious that eating like your ancestors is the absolute best way to live as long as possible while staying healthy. Maybe you'll be healthier but live a shorter life? Humans didn't evolve to live forever; we're programmed to die because that allows adaptability which is important for perpetuating our genes and that's all evolution does.

Living longer and feeling physically and mentally better may be goals that are somewhat contradictory. One point of evidence is that permanent life-long calorie restriction increases life-span. And constantly being on 1500kcal or something like that isn't conducive to feeling good.

Yeah, I share the same concerns you have about this.
But it does make more sense to me that a keto diet is better than a diet with a good amount of carbs, considering carbs have been scarce >10,000 years ago, and the human body has very limited glucose stores and large fat stores. Almost the whole body can use ketones for energy and only a small amount of glucose is needed, which the body produces itself.

Longevity-wise, many types of diseases and causes of death are linked to metabolic syndrome, which is an insulin and (often) therefore a carb problem.

It does make sense that metabolism and energy expenditure, and therefore energy intake (should) decrease with age. It's not directly obvious to me that a lowered caloric intake makes you feel bad if you're not young anymore and you don't eat carbs. Maybe (intermittent) fasting would be a solution too?

There's no way to tell from that list whether or not you're getting the right amounts of stuff. The quantities that you eat of all of that matter. Also when and what combinations too.

>I’m just worried that I’m missing something important idk
There's no other way to alleviate that worry but calculating out the numbers.

Put all of your eating into an app or website that has micronutrient data and see if it looks like you're getting adequate quantities of all micronutrients. The most accurate method is looking up the data on https://nutritiondata.self.com/ or whatever national database your coutnry maintains and calculating the stuff out on your own spreadsheet. Also calculate your w6-w3 ratio and try get it toward 1:1. Get at least 2g of EPA. Eat at least 25% of your total calories as fat.
Getting vitamin C along with iron in a meal is important so that the iron is absorbed. If you're eating vegetables or fruits with every meal then is taken care of.
Calcium and magnesium prevent absorption of zinc due to them being eaten in much greater quantities than zinc and all three competing for the same absorption path. When every meal provides ample calcium and magnesium, you may end up absorbing too little zinc despite having sufficient quantities of it in your food. And almost every food contains calcium and magnesium in quantities greater than zinc. This is why a zinc supplement taken an hour before and two hours after any meal is a good option. Of course the only way to be sure that stuff is being absorbed is by blood test which vary from cheap to very expensive depending on the substance.

[Anonymous No.10608479]

true poor man's food is:
rice (dry grain you steam or boil yourself)
beans (dry beans you boil yourself)
bulk veggies (fresh or frozen)

the moment something is put into a smaller unit like can or bag, it's already going to cost more than if you bought it in a big bulk bag.

the above would cost less than $1 per meal. add in eggs for protein. you don't need protein every day, but you would if you were using your body and brain to do lots of work. assuming someone is unemployed and living near poverty level on welfare or whatever, you can survive off the above and basically live off 1 meal per day for less than $1 per day.

all those faggoty ads about how africans have to "live on less than $1 a day" makes it sound so harrowing and difficult, but really it's not. as long as you have a pot, some water, and the above, you can survive. i know because i've done it.

Perhaps you can't make as good seasoning as the commercial ones but it's basically just seasoning, right? So try out a bunch of different spices and herbs and see what she likes.
Or perhaps reject the assumption that the seasoning needs to be added as a powder. You have no need to store the noodles dry which requires the seasonings to also be separately provided as a dry powder. The seasoning powder is an artifact of the way the potnoodles are sold. You're making and serving the noodles and broth fresh (I assume) so your process of seasoning ought to be different.

Should give you anywhere between 3 to 4 cups of stock, and that's what the seasoning basically is - some umami enhancers, salt, and dried stock. Set about a cup of stock to boil, put in the noodles, it should be done soon afterwards. Add a bit of umami stuff (it's pretty useful), maybe some veggies or chopped meat, a bit of soy sauce...

2) There are rice, as well as buckwheat (soba) instant noodles too. Not all of them are wheat flour.

3) Instead of using seasoning packets at all just make stock. Or buy canned broth if you're lazy.

4) You could easily approximate the seasoning powder with a smashed boullion cube, or just mix up your own blend of salt, msg, and seasonings appropriate for the flavor you're going for.

Don't eat large pieces of meat, use meat to add bulk/nutrition to vegetable and legume-based stews, soups etc. Then you can eat meat every day, cut with other forms of plant protein.

I don't try to get everything from whole foods only because I want to eat as cheaply as possible. So I use supplements to get some micros that are too expensive to get from food, like vitamin D, B12, K2 and EPA + DHA. I do think this is inferior to eating only whole foods but I don't think by much. I feel people exaggerate this inferiority in their minds and, thus, rail on others who claim that you can be healthy while using supplements. The bar for what is healthy has been set too high. The average person's diet is not even adequate and their health below acceptable. If you're autistic enough to calculate in a spreadsheet all your macros and micros, look up online the recommended intakes for everything and then balance your nutrients according to them, then you're eating way healthier than the majority of the population even if you use supplements. I feel that the additional health benefits from only using whole foods are not going be much as any maximization process encounters diminishing returns but of course you can go that route if you don't mind spending around double what it takes with supplements to balance out every nutrient.

Anyway, my current diet is ketogenic because I'm trying it out and I eat whey and soy protein powder, eggs, soy groats, creamy cheese, flaxseed, canola oil, coconut oil, onions, cabbage and carrots. Also I do like simple guacamole with just avocado, canola oil. garlic and salt. It increases my daily costs but it's just too delicious to give up. Along with fish oil, flaxseed oil, multivitamin, K2, D and zinc+magnesium+copper supps my daily cost is about 5€. Without the guacamole it'd be 4,50€.
A ketogenic diet is more expensive than a carb-allowing one. My previous diet was whey protein powder, oats, rice, macaroni, soy groats, canola oil, coconut oil, flaxseed, cabbage, carrots, beetroot, turnip and onion along with the same supps as before. The daily cost was 3€.

Beans and lentils man. Not because they'd provide something you're missing, but just because they're cheap and really good. Dry or canned legumes also last a really long time, which is convenient.

There's a bunch of posts in this thread talking about the very misunderstanding that cheap food = dogshit. The actual cheapest sources for calories are whole foods like oats, rice and wheat plus cheap oil like canola which actually has a great fat profile and overall cheapest nutrition providers are oats, lentils, soy and eggs. At least where I live, cabbage is the cheapest whole food source for vitamin C and carrots for vitamin A. Other than that, vegetables and fruits are terrible due to being so low calorie but you need some to get a varied assortment of fiber in addition to the grains a properly cost-optimizing health-minded poorfag would eat.

It does make more sense to assume that it is done the same way everywhere. We are talking about the organisation and floorplan of a jail building. A jail building which serves a specific purpose. Some design principles serve this purpose. A design principle like keeping unsupervised inmates strictly separate from evidence lockers with dangerous items or items that could easily be made contraband. It just makes sense.

Your point is pretty much like arguing that it is wrong to assume every bathroom is connected to water pipes, just because your bathroom at home is.

I ate them with whey concentrate and some canola oil plus a little coconut oil. Adding fat to food always makes it taste better. I always buy unflavored protein powder because it's cheapest and more suitable for cooking. Also because the artificial sweeteners taste like crap to me. However, you can buy flavored whey and see if that tastes ok with oats. But even unflavored adds a little sweetness the oatmeal because whey concentrate has around 6g of lactose in it usually.

Another way, the best way in my opinion, is to just keep eating bland food until it no longer tastes bland. Taste is not absolute but relative to your recent experience. If you all you eat is bland food, then whatever differences in taste you notice will feel bigger in proportion. My personal anecdote with this process is when I switched to flavored whey one time and my oatmeal with that was really sweet. Once I switched back to unflavored the oatmeal tasted quite bland in comparison. But after a month or so, it started tasting good again and I was again always looking forward to eating it. The taste of the sweetened whey was fading from my memory. Another big factor in enjoying food is appetite. Doing something like 16/8 intermittent fasting ought to make anything you eat after the fast an enjoyable meal. The same applies for a meal eaten after a hard training session.
The taste of food is only partially created from the actual substances in the food. A major part of the total experience is affected by your mental state; how hungry you are, whether you've prematurely dismissed the food as bad before eating or not, how you feel emotionally, whether you're in a hurry to eat or not, etc. One might say that eating a meal always comes with a plentiful helping of your own mind.

No, I mix everything together, then microwave. I prefer my oatmeal to be not runny like porridge but a bit dry. The more water it has, the more any taste in it is diluted. Also, my personal experience has been that watery oatmeal fills you up way faster. Of course, the more water, the more actual matter you'll be having to swallow. But there's also something about the fiber in oats that makes it more satiating if it's allowed to swell up with water. Oat fiber contains betaglucan which has been studied quite a bit and, as I understand, is considered the major factor in the strong satiating effect of oatmeal.
So, if you're going to eat tons of oatmeal, it may be best not to add too much water. Or, if you're cutting calories to lose weight, it may be helpful to eat really watery oatmeal as it'll keep hunger away longer.
