I constantly get told by people on other boards that they live off just $100-200 per month on their food allowance. I live along and I can easily spend $100 in just one grocery store trip, and that doesn't include lunches, which I typically eat out. So how the fuck do you do it?

Please don't reply to this thread with "just eat rice and beans," or "just get ramen in bulk." I'm talking about long term eating on a budget, not a diet that tastes like cardboard and makes me fart all day long.

bs that's not $29

Depends on where you're shopping. At Whole Foods, the food items pictured would run you into the hundreds of dollars.

>>8690536

First off, don't eat out. Eating out is expensive. you can have several meals for the cost of eating out. The more you cook from scratch rather than using box mixes or prepared products the cheaper things will get. Also learn to reduce waste.

Here's a great example how to feed yourself cheap. Go buy a whole chicken (about $5), a pound of pasta ($1), and some basic veggies (carrots, celery, onion). That's another $1 or $2 max. For that $8 you can make several meals:
-roast the chicken in the oven. You get four servings (2 legs, 2 breasts).
-pick the remaining meat off the carcass and use to make sandwiches
-toss the skeleton in a pot, add water, your pasta, and the veggies and now you have several servings of chicken soup.

As for beans and rice, that can be super tasty, you just have to learn how to cook it. Add some aromatic veggies and a ham bone when you cook your beans. Cook them with stock instead of water. That's fuckwin delicious and very cheap.

For a great example regarding beans, take a look at >>8690213. That cost me less than $12 to make and it made well over 12 servings. And you can see that it clearly isn't going to taste like cardboard.

Put some lentils in a blender and you have ethiopian food. But for real, ethiopian food is good, and if you have the spices it's easy. Don't know about desert though.

Make borcht, it's dirt cheap and easy to make and you can claim it's from whatever eastern european czechlovakistanland country you want in case you can't pick the same as another student

You literally just boil the color out of a few chopped beets and then add fried sausage, shredded cabbage and potato along with dill and salt before stirring in minced raw garlic at the end when you take it off the heat and serve it in a bowl with a dollop of sour cream on top

Not alone, pineapples are too sour for meatballs. You need something sweet.

As an American who has browsed this forum for over 7 years, I find it weird to believe that people think our food is more than decent. While we have some of the best food cities on the planet, our traditional food is average at best. Do people actually believe this meme or is it just b8?

Bullshit. Everything Americans touch turns to gold. Americans improve literally everything, especially other peoples' food. I wish I was American, the USA is the only country that matters.
>>
>>8690030
What traditional food are you talking about? The US is a country of immigrants, almost every food we eat either started as another country's food or evolved from it. When people talk about a country's food they are talking about food currently available.

Are you retarded?

Its called The Monster, it has five toppings, and low cooked dough on top for extra eating, and two sauces to dip.

Their ingredients are good quality, almost no complaints.

>>8689996
Can't say, near neighbor. I guess 13€ for chain, 8 € at the local turkeys.

What are your favorite very easy and fast dishes to make, especially ones that use very few pots/pans and don't make a mess?

I just moved into an apartment with an amazing location but the kitchen has tiny counterspace and no dishwasher. So most of my favorite dishes are a huge pain to make, looking for more very simple things to prepare.

Pic related is one I've been relying on. Cold somen noodles with broth.

I feel you OP, I have limited counter space and no dish washer as well. I try to stick to as many one pot or two pan dishes as I can but as a result I've gotten comfortable with chicken bakes, chilis, soups, and pastas and am looking for more variety as well. :(

you can make decent (not great) fried rice with one pot, one bowl, and one cutting board

>Boil rice to just-under-done (you can use rice that boils in bag to make this easier)
>while rice is cooking, chop veggies
>onion, carrot (very small), frozen peas, broccoli cut very small
>i get bean sprouts at my grocery store but those are optional
>put carrots and brocolli in a bowl, keep everything else on cutting board
>drain rice
>put same pot back on burner, use some peanut + sesame oil and heat high
>I cook onions and sprouts first, then rice, then carrots and peas
>dont forget the soy sauce. some people use fish sauce too but i cant get it where i live
>never stop stirring
>push everything to one side of pot and scramble one or two eggs on the bare side
>mix everything and serve

that's two good servings for like $4 where i live. fried rice is great for poverty food.

What are your thoughts on alcohol? I personally thinks it's fine to have a drink or two in the company of friends, but drinking alone is harmful and dangerous.

>drinking alone is harmful and dangerous

Explain how.

Alcohol is not a magic potion that changes properties depending on the number of people in the room.
>>
Haven't been drinking this past month, it's more depressing, not sure if life or lack of al cohol
>>
I prefer weed to alcohol

It's just a mediocre drug imo
