1. To save cash and recreationally. I would like to buy a house and cooking cuts my meal costs in half. It is also something I do with my SO
2. No. I live next door to two different upscale grocery stores (talk about luck). I just go nextdoor daily.
3. What kind of things do you cook usually?
4. I eat little junk food. I have a milk allergy. I also eat a lot of meat. This is due to having powerlifting as one of my hobbies.
5. I eat a lot of tacos, steak and rice, chicken. etc. It is easy and fast.
- richardking 12y agoCurious, what is your cost per meal, approx? I live next to Whole Foods and buying ingredients daily usually makes the meal ~$7-$10, which is about the same as buying a pretty healthy prepared meal. I do think buying/cooking in bulk will save money but that's harder to plan for and I don't have many recipes to cook in bulk.
- steakejjs 12y agoI live next to a wholefoods and a wegmans so this is a good comparison. The things I buy bring my average meal cost to about $5. If I eat out (chipotle or something) it is $10. I eat simply. One thing I love is wholefoods preseasoned chicken. It's about 2.99 a pound and serves 3 meals (2 dinners, and my lunch for the next day). I should also note I eat around 3100 calories per day. edit: I should also note. cooking for more than 1 meal at a time brings my average cost per meal down quite a bit. Even if it is only 2 meals.
