Probably about $400. I'll spend like $125 and live on it for nine or so days. Typical grocery list:
>5 Great Value brand Lean Cuisines
>pack of Tyson chicken breasts
>Leaf spinach
>vineripe tomatoes
>bread
>pound of deli sliced turkey
>pound of pasta
>jar of pasta sauce
>meat for pasta (usually Italian sausage)

I used to work at a mom and pop grocery store in a busy downtown are of a major city, and everynight we could take home the left over deli hot case food, and generally speaking just make anything we wanted out of the deli and take it home. I also got very cheap lunches there, maybe $3 for a big schwarma bowl. Also we could take home any damaged or expired grocery items, of which there were often a good amount of.

I guess what I'm getting at is that for the 7 months I worked there, I basically didn't pay for groceries whatsoever. Now I work at a restaurant and get free dinner and lunch every day/night so I still don't really pay for groceries. if I had to guess, I'd say I pay maybe $100 a month on food.

[Anonymous No.10632632]

190 at most

[Anonymous No.10632636]

Maybe $300. My work gets catered food twice a week and it usually has leftovers so I don't pay for four lunches a week.

[Anonymous No.10632658]

>>10631282
Sometimes like 30-50 dollars a day, so almost $1000/month.
Why? Because I can.
But lately I'm intermittent fasting which has brought it down to 10 or 15 a day, significantly less.

I've spent an atrocious amount of money on food this year and you know what? It was worth it.

[Anonymous No.10632712]

>>10632700
Well personally I'm fat and think that should be obvious. Even when I lift hard and exercise everyday I'm going to be fat eating over $20-$30 a day in food.

Nobody could be jealous of that. You must be right about them being jealous of the money though.

[Anonymous No.10633499]

>>10631282
Generally around $140-$200. I'm in the process of learning recipes involving beans and brown rice so I'll have more money for hobbies and getting out of debt. Going to make slow-cooker black beans with a ham bone tomorrow. Got the beans soaking now and I'm excited to try the fire-roasted canned tomatoes I found at the store in this meal.

Midwesterners, like me, can buy a lot of healthy food for relatively little money because there are farms everywhere. It's like how beef is super cheap in Texas because they have a huge percentage of the country's cattle farms.

If I really scrape and scrounge deals at outlets and questionable markets, I can get by on 300. If I wanna stock up on clean staples and not eat weird chemicals, 600 or more. My booze budget is about the same. I live in an expensive city. If I go out, it’s easily 100, but usually closer to 150.

>Both are shitty and byproducts of late capitalism.
Uh, that's bullshit though. Feeling bad about not working is a byproduct of capitalism? That makes no sense. It has nothing to do with capitalism, even if people have plenty enough money they still tend to stray towards suicidal thoughts when they do nothing with their lives. That's why rich people still have hobbies, and don't just lie around. If you're doing nothing with your life and are just lounging around being a NEET, when you're effectively robbing yourself of your own self-worth.
