Why did you set your target that low? (50 dollars / month) The expected standard here in Uruguay is 100 dollars / month in food (and that with a 150 dollar minimum monthly wage) I probably spend about 300 dollars per month in food (I do buy and/or eat out half the time), with a salary of 1200 dollars / month after tax. I'm pretty sure you make at least twice that.
