8lb bag of beans - $6
10lb bag of rice - $5
10lb bag of potatoes $3

4lb of spinach (1lb/wk) - $8
Broccoli (2 heads/wk) - $12
4lb of carrots (1lb/wk) - $6

8lb cheapest apples - $10
cheap frozen blueberries (lb/wk) - $10

Now... You want meat? Get some meat. You want more variety of veg/fruit? Do that. You want to treat yourself to some lazy canned meals? Do that. Try new spices and get yourself some oil. But that ticks a shitload of boxes of macros and micros and is better than many would get on a fast food diet.

Dried pinto, black beans and lentils, use a pressure cooker.
Buy bulk wheat flour, store in your fridge.
Get a yeast mother going if you don't already have one. Get your ratios right.
Bake bread, make beans.

Spend everything else on eggs, kale/spinach, spices, vinegar, canola, and Dawn. Thoroughly wash the kale/spinach with the Dawn, as that shit has the most pesticide residue due to an FDA loophole. Seriously, be thorough.

Honestly I could do this probably no problem.

Big ass bag of rice, beans, pasta, any sort of jarred tomato sauce on sale, eggs (realistically probably 2 or 3 dozen), bunch of canned tuna, bread, cheddar cheese, onions, garlic, ginger, spring onions, apples, oranges, broccoli, bell peppers, serano peppers, a large bag of frozen perogies (ukrainian style garlic if you can find them), and a bag of chips. You can get stuff like salt, pepper, soy sauce, hot sauce, and butter from supermarkets. If you go to the deli and ask for a small cup of olive oil or butter a lot of places will give it to you (they will just assume you want it to accompany something you're getting from the salad bar or hot buffet or whatever. This is all easily doable with $100. Do your best to shop for stuff on sale. You honestly don't have to live like you're in poverty and eat rice and beans everyday. You can make cheese omelettes with toast for breakfast, tuna sandwiches/tuna melts, spicy fried rice with tuna, decent pasta (add in seranos for a kick). You'll get by just fine dude.

oats are cheap and good for balancing the unhealthiness of cheap diets, and are filling. they can lower BP and cholesterol and keep things moving via fiber so you're less exposed too irritants from cheap stuff in your intestines.

Vinny Beedle fed him drugs and dragged him out to exploit him for comedy shows. He surrounded himself with the wrong people, and had a complete fucking mental breakdown in January and February. He even posted a lot of it on social media. He was drinking and driving, smoking meth and publically humiliating Brandon Novak and demanding he pays up for a car Novak totalled. Eventually, his parents staged an intervention and he was admitted into a "looney bin" (as he calls it) and emerged from it with severe withdrawal. He was administered drugs which would hospitalize him if he drank alcohol. Then April came along and he threw a failure of a party which had the local township's (pocopson) sheriffs baracaded the premises. Long story short a bunch of people got scammed. In the coming month he focused on skateboard, Nikki and his family. He now is sobering up, back on the board, and spending time with his family and the people who care about him.

April 1st he attempted to stage a party at castle bam but the pocopson township hate him (for obvious reasons) and got the sheriffs to baracade the premises so a buncha bam loving mutants couldn't swarm in and turn the surrounding area into Skateopia. Sohe then tried to schedule the event at FDR, but the police were already there to tell everyone "nope." Then another venue goes back on their word and cancels so he haphazardly scheduled the party at a bar, which consisted of Vinny insulting the audience and Yelawolf apologizing on his behalf.
