If I wanna survive cheaply can I buy cans of baked beans and eat those twice a day?
Then eat vitamin pills and toast bread and cheese for breakfast so I don't miss out on valuable minimals and vitamins?
Will this keep me healthy?
I've heard baked beans are great for this

I'm gonna be stocking canned foods.
Some preppers will tell you to stock dry beans and rice instead because they weigh so much less, but I don't think they're accounting for the huge amount of water it takes to wash and cook them.
Might as well have food already in the can with its own water, so you can dedicate your water storage to drinking.

VEGETABLES, motherfucker. Even shit-tier frozen veggies are like $1/lb. Try working at a job that isn't garbage and you don't have to obsess over a few dollars in food expenses.

All jokes aside, canned beans has pretty much every nutrient you could need except for vitamin B12

That's pretty good. What about fibre intake though?
Lacking B12 would give mouth ulcers so it would be annoying but what can you do.

>>11680506
Some of us can't find good jobs. And I don't know how to cook aside from pasta and frozen pizzas. Heh. I'm gonna start learning. Was just thinking on what to fall back on.

>>11680495
I guess my cans have water in them already.
How long are you planning on surviving on that?

Get some kind of canned meat or fish and eat it at least once a week.
I prefer corned beef hash personally.

Protein powders, flavoring ingredients, plus pill nutrients are much cheaper per macro/calorie than fruits, vegetables, canned goods, or fast food. They're also way better tasting for similarly-priced items.

… Especially CCNature stevia, but dried leaves are plausibly the best version when reduced properly.

Beans are a pretty good source of fiber.

>> No.11685122

buy dry beans, cheapest oil you can get, rice, frozen veggies, spices, flour and you're set. it's all cheap and it all lasts a long time, making stews out of that shit is the easiest shit you'll ever do.

also, get a better job, christ almighty

Forget the Beans

Get a 12oz can of Alpo

My local Walmart has them for .48¢

Beef, Poultry, Gravy and all the essential vitamins and minerals

Occasionally I can get so no name brand from the dollar store for .25¢ a can

3 meals a day for under a $1, can't go wrong

Meats back on the menu
