If you're just gunning for maximum return on investment, note that (in my experience) you get the most protein per dollar from breadcrumbs, and the most calories per dollar from coconut milk. If you're going to be cheap and unhealthy, be that way sensibly.
- motoko 19y agoUh... I think that if you need to optimize "food expenses" to this extreme, you have much more serious problems than software. Penny-wise, pound-foolish... wow
- Alex3917 19y agoDon't forget that people also just enjoy the stereotype. Take it cum grano salis.
- Goladus 19y agoFood is something you eat every day. In this case, it's pennies that add up-- and pretty quickly. My monthly food bill (when I'm not skimping) is typically second only to rent and taxes. Consider- 1/4 a box of that barilla pasta I mentioned... 400 calories costs maybe $0.50. Add sauce and you're maybe up to 500 calories and $1.00 for the meal. Drink water, or maybe a cup of gatorade for another $0.50. A meal for around $2.00. Cereal for breakfast is probably similar, $2.00-$2.50 per meal. Ruling out breakfast, consider 2 meals a day for a month. At $2 for lunch and $2 for dinner for 31 days, that's $124/mo. A $7 lunch and a $10 dinner is $527/mo. In 3 months you'll have saved $1,200.
- steve 19y agoprotein from breadcrumbs? No.
- byrneseyeview 19y agoKrasdale seasoned bread crumbs have 96 calories for $1.69 pretax (in the C-Town grocery store in the Park Slope neighborhood of Brooklyn). I couldn't find a cheaper source. You?
