I got $7, my payday next week and I'm out of groceries. What can I get with this? I'm really hungry and I don't want to eat soup and a cream cheese bagel for dinner again.

Are you female?
You could date /ck/ losers for food till pay day.
>>
>>7525783
I may be hungry but I still have pride
>>
>>7525776
As much beans and rice as you can get, its bland and boring but you will not starve.
>>
>>7525776
3 packs of pasta, 3 cans of sauce. It's not glorious, but it will get you to payday.
>>
Rice or lentils or something, make Chilli.
>>
buy a big bag of rice to hold you over
>>
>>7525776
2 dollars worth of cheap rice
2 dollars worth of the cheapest beans you can get
1 jar of peanut butter for easy calories
You'll feel like shit, but it's the best you can do.

Poor people always seem to make the worst food choices when it comes to economical dinners. Buying canned soup, fresh bread and spread with your last pennies is the worst way to spend that money.

You could instead bulk buy lentils, rice, vegetable oil, onions, cabbage and carrots. You can easily prepare very healthy meals with just water and salt with these ingredients. Yes you will fart like a motherfucker but it will get you through the rough times without ruining your future health.

>Buying canned soup, fresh bread and spread with your last pennies is the worst way to spend that money.
I wasn't expecting to be out of money, that's just all that's left of the last grocery run I made.
>>
>>7525818
I'm curious as to why you'd recommend the onions and cabbage to someone on a very tight budget. Both have negligible nutritional benefit so that seems like a rather frivolous use of money for someone that's nearly broke.
>>
Don't you have anything in stock already? Rice, taters, veggies, etc.?
>>
big ol bag of potatoes
>>
>>7525776
Google and search for the legume that will give you most cals + protein. Get that, some rice, and some seasoning. Its the cheapest and healthiest way.
>>
>>7525832
This, tell us what you already have so we can come with recipe ideas
>>
>>7525830
They are extremely cheap and better than no vegetables at all. They also add taste and texture to otherwise very mushy meals made from lentils and beans.

>>7525822
So you better make those last dollars count. Getting your tummy filled up makes poor eating much more tolerable than being hungry all the time.
>>
>>7525838
>>7525832
I've got a bag of brown rice, a bag of carrots, 2 potatoes, 1 tomato, 1 box of whole grain pasta, some alfredo sauce, and about a quarter gallon of milk.

Along with the aforementioned bagels and soup.
>>
>>7525861
Buy some beans and vegetable oil and you're set.
>>
>>7525861
Besides the beans, get the cheaper protein source you can get. A dozen of eggs or/and 2 pounds of chicken will help you make it until next week without eating like a slave.

I would also recommend getting some flour to make tortillas (flour + salt + oil + water)
>>
>>7525932
Quark cheese is usually very cheap, at least here in yuro. Rich in protein, filling, and tastes disgusting. Perfect for poor eating.
>>
>>7525946
True that

Also, you can make pretty decent pancakes with grinded oats (just throw them into the blender) + eggs + milk
>>
Thanks for the advice /ck/, I'm heading to the store in a bit.
>>

You could be my bf: that way, I could cook for you! :33

Better start selling some shit. You're going to get sick of beans and potatoes pretty quick

Dunno if it's universal, but frozen pirogies can be had really cheap here (like $4 for a huge bag). Not the most nutritional thing in the world, but filling as fuck.

Other than that, (dry) beans and rice

>>
>>7525932
I wouldn't want to fuck with making tortillas when it costs as much to buy the flour. Especially when I'm starving.

Instant noodles isn't very good for the starving. It's very low in nutrition and can make someone sick if it's all they eat for one day. OP will start feeling very weak within the first day of just eating instant ramen. At least dried beans will have proteins and

Anon died while posting because of poor nutrition. He ate nothing but rammen for 6 days in a row. When he realized this it was already too late. A minute of silence please.

quick breads

I used to buy the cheap instant noodles when I was running low on money and eat several of them for dinner. But then when I went to pay for it at the self register a dirty fucking hippy laughed at me for buying loads of top ramen. Every since then I felt insecure about buying the top ramen.
