My monthly food budget is already around $40~50.

Wendy's has been doing $1 breakfast biscuit and free drink with any purchase promotions all month. If you buy a $2 frosty keychain, there's another free item. If you get a $1 sausage egg and cheese biscuit (replacing the biscuit with a croissant and adding onions are free), a free orange juice/milk/frostyccino, and a free frosty, that's a solid 1000 calories with plenty of complete protein. If you get paper coupons by mail, you can stack those too. Assuming you went daily, you'd still have another $15 left over to splurge on cheap multivitamins and >>17027867.

Anon, think about what poor people eat around the world, and try and adapt it into your diet. Minimal on the animal protein, heavy on carbs like rice, beans and flour based foods (Bread/Noodles). Learn to take raw ingredients and make them into stuff. Milk into cheese, Flour into bread or noodles etc.

India and China feed millions, look to their cuisine as a guide.You can make rice bowls or veg dishes. Europeans eat lots of bread, pasta and soups. Learn to use what you have! The key to food frugality is DIY and using animal proteins to a minimum.

Oilfield guy working in Mexico here, ain't like they do in these small villages. Sacks a pinto beans, harina prepareda, which is flour made for tortillas. White rice with V8 in it if you want to go cheap and potatoes with the beans for every breakfast. Every meal you have beans and rice except for breakfast which is potato and rice. Every meal served with tortillas. Then whatever the cheapest meat is out there that you can find. Quite often it's organ meat but whatever meat you can find you add in. It could be hot dogs for God's sake doesn't matter. That's how they eat around here. Every single damn meal. Oops forgot to add salsa. They have salsa with every meal too.

Bacteria convert stuff. You're generally not ingesting bacterial stuff for the bacteria itself, particularly with drugs, but also including their regular use in food.

My go - to food when money is tight:

>Eggs: Can often get an entire 12 pack for $1.25 and can be used in a lot of things and for any meal of the day.

>Rice: Usually 1 cup of rice will last me 2-3 meals on average. You can get a decent sized bag for less then $3, or a 20 pound one for like $18 that will last you a long ass time.

>Potatoes: 5 pound bag can last several weeks, is versatile in its uses, and costs like $3 bucks.

>Chicken Thighs. An entire pack can cost $6 bucks on average and can give you a decent amount for stews, curry, or other items when chopped up.

>Pasta and Pasta sauce: Almost always on sale by most places. Pasta is versatile and can be combined with a lot of sauces, and pasta sauce can often be gotten for like $1.50 or less. Can often make 2-3 meals per serving.

>Curry: You can often get Curry roux kits if you do not want to make your own from scratch for cheap, and using the chicken and potatoes along with some rice can give 2-3 meals on average.

>PB&J: A bit more expensive, but Peanut Butter often goes on sale and lasts a long time, and Jelly or Jam can also last a bit. Great for lunches.

>Dried beans: Pinto, white beans, etc. Often can get a decent sized bag for under $2 and is pretty filling. Requires a lot of prep work, but it does pair well with other things on here and can be made into different things.

>Italian sausage: Many times cheaper then ground beef nowadays, but has a lot of uses and pairs well with other things on here.

>Milk: Can be used in so many things and can be bought in a lot of places for under $2 bucks. Only downside is it spoils a bit fast.

>Cereal: OK, hear me out: Cereal is often on sale and can be good for a quick breakfast. Not the healthiest, but considering how often it is on sale it is worth it sometimes.

>Oatmeal: Has gone up, but you can get either a big tub of oat meal and customize it or get the packets for like $2-3 bucks for 10. Best option for a cheap breakfast.

Stew meat used to be on the list before prices went sky high.

All of the $1.09 transactions are a $1.00 breakfast biscuit + free premium drink + free frosty as described in >>17027987. The $1.18 transactions are usually a $1.09 hamburger + free baconator fries + free frosty. The $1.29 transaction was special, since it was a $1.19 jr. fries + free spicy chicken sandwich with any size fries purchase (digital) + free medium fries (paper) + free 6 chicken nuggets (basketball promotion) + free frosty (keychain). It was about 1700 calories, so some 1400 calories per dollar for that order. They usually let me get away with using multiple coupons as long as they are all of a different "type".

The card transaction dates and post dates aren't in exact alignment, but I did go twice on some days, usually when there were some dinner hours coupons that I wanted to use. Most the gaps in dates are due to me using cash in-store because I was using both a digital coupon and a paper coupon in the same order. Though there was one day where I didn't wake up on time for breakfast hours.

Anon who made statement, it’s that and the byproducts they produce which increase mineral absorption and makes the bread easier to digest than yeasted bread.

But besides and back to OP, once you have a sourdough starter you can use it to make all sorts of foods like pancakes, crumpets, cakes, muffins on a budget.

You can probably still hit 50-60g protein per day like this but I honestly can't think of how to do it. It would definitely be possible to survive but I know i'd have to change my dietary habits a lot to hit $50/month just to feed myself.

Break down your shopping into protein (pb, eggs, meats, fish), carbs (pasta, bread, flour), veg, herbs/spices, and grocery (soap etc). Then bookmark the ad pages of every store within range. Every week pop open the ads and see what the sales are. Over time you will get a sense of the real price of foods and what is a deal to spend on.

Some tips:

>Buy in bulk at the lowest price then shop for smaller amounts as you go
>find the discount aisles in each store you visit, they all have at least one area
>Immigrant markets are your FRIEND. Find where they are and get their ads.
>You can buy some food and toiletries online cheaper, and at higher quality (e.g., bulk bags of good rice, paper, etc)
>If you have the room freeze your on-sale protein and get your veg fresh
>Potatoes, onions, and carrots sell dirt cheap in bulk bags. Learn to cook with these.
>Rice is a staple and there are a thousand ways to eat it
>Learn recipes that stretch out proteins with vegetables, rice, and pastas
>search for deals on herbs and spices like a thirsty simp and over a long period of time you will build a formidable spice collection
>Buddy up with the deli and butcher personnel and they will hook you up

literally just potatoes. you're fine on b12 for years

if you had $50 every month indefinitely, okay, reduce to like 1lb potatoes/day for vitamins, eat rice for the rest.
