Per serving you can have all those for around $2.15. You can feed yourself, someone else, and still have enough left to buy a gumball.

In that scenario I'd just buy a can of corned beef hash. If I'm that fucking broke then all I'm concerned about is getting a metric fuckton of fuel into me as quickly as possible so I can get more money. The fact that it can easily be used to bludgeon someone to death and take their wallet is a factor.

Burger King. With the free sandwich you get for filling out their survey, the meal is $3.69. The remaining $1.31 will get me a candy bar at the supermarket down the block.

Maybe not the most healthful meal, but you didn't mention that.

I would buy 1 pound of beef and fry it in a pan.

Ez ass meal for two with leftover pasta cooking for more? buy more sausage

1 28oz can of whole tomatoes (san marzano style preferred) -1.19
1 lb of linguine -89 cents
5 tablespoons of butter - 20 cents worth?
1 yellow onion -79 cents
2 one dollar hot Italian sausages from the deli

should be close to 5 dollars

Combine the tomatoes, butter and onion(only cut in half) in a pan and cook for 45 mins breaking the tomatoes down with a spatula. No less no more time. Salt and pepper to taste. Start boiling pasta water 5 mins before your 45 min timer is up.
Once done remove the sauce and remove the onion from the sauce. Wipe out the pan add in the sausage and brown them up cook for 12-14 mins or so. While they are cooking cook your pasta for 10 mins or until al dente.

Serve the sauce over the pasta and slice up the sausage and place it on the side of the pasta. Place 2-3 of the onion pieces on the side of the pasta as well they should be well cooked and translucent. Grate some parmesan over the pasta if you have some. Can serve with a buttered french bread chunk as well.

Pic related and trust me its one of the best sauces you can make. Look up Marcella Hazan tomato sauce.

in my city you can get a pack of ramen for $1 or less, and a hot dog is $3. So really 2 packs of ramen and a hot dog.

Jesus fucking christ none of you are going to make it. How are you posting on a board about cooking when all you can think of eating for 5$ is fast food cancerchem filled trash?
It's this >>18754646, or me personally I'd make a puttanesca sauce. Or something with potatoes, beef and some kind of root vegetable. I'd have to be in the store to see the prices but it wouldn't be that hard to get something for 5 dollars.

Is actually really good given its literally 3 ingredients.

If we're saying I'm in the grocery store and I have $5 in my pocket, then I'd get potato, onion, carrot, and butter. Chop it all up and fry it. Presumably I have some salt and pepper around.
If I can buy bulk to make something that's at most $5 per serving, then I'd probably make some bean and rice burritos or some pasta dish.
If I just have $5 in my pocket and I can go anywhere, then realistically I'd probably just get some shitty fast food value deal or maybe some tacos from a cheap mexican place.

[Anonymous No.18755231]

>>18754033
you have $5, you buy 2 cans of canned fish,
you sell 3 cans to your publicly listed company using letters of credit opened up by your brother in law at the bank,
then execute an equity swap with an associated general offer,
this gives us 4 cans to work with, with a tax exemption for a 5th can.
the unit price for all 6 cans can then be transferred via an intermediary to a cayman island company secretly owned by the majority shareholder who sells the unit price for the 7 cans back to your listed company.

your annual report will say the company owns 8 cans of fish, with an option on one more

Bro do you not have a fucking deli in any grocers near you? You don't have to buy a whole pound of cheese. They'll literally sell you a single slice if that's what you want.

San marzano canned tomatoes are shockingly expensive, and I live in a place that's typically pretty cheap. Usually mine are about $4 per can for whole ones. For meals like tikka masala, I end up spending more on the tomatoes than the meat.
They get marked up a bit for having an italian name though, so there may be regular gringo tomatoes for closer to $1.19.

Loaf of bread and a can of tuna or sardines or mackerel. Hopefully you have some kind of vegetables and condiments at home. Alternatively you can probably just buy some cheap dried pasta and a jar of sauce.

2 chicken thighs should run about $2.50-$3.00, ricearoni is $1.00-$1.50, go to the area of the store where you can buy beans where you scoop them into a bag and weigh them, then spend the 50 cents to $1.50 on beans

That's not a thing anymore. The ones that used to be $5 for a 12 inch are now about $6.50 after tax. I just got a cold cut combo a few days ago so I'm an expert

I made the mistake of ordering a sub other than the sub of the day and it cost me like $15, like fuck that, $15 for a fuckin subway lmao no fucking way. I can go to a real sandwich shop for $15, it left such a sour taste in my mouth (figuratively but probably literally too) that I haven't gone back to subway, not even worth it anymore

Why the fuck would I eat a 5 dollar bill for dinner. This is a retraded thread.

[Anonymous No.18758166]

>>18757993
That's why I pretty much always stick with the cold cut combo. It will always be in the cheapest group and at $6.50 after tax for a foot long sandwich I don't have to make myself it's worth it.
Their vegetables where uncharacteristically unfresh last time I went though. I'll give them one more shot and if their veggies are bad again I won't go back there.
Its easy for me to make that claim and stand by it because I live by a Jersey Mike's and Jimmy John's both are much closer to me than the nearest subway
