But he's morbidly obese.

>>9420559
Imagine being at computers so fat you look and see food

Right, I'm not an american, but:
>2 big bottles of canola oil
>4 lbs of rice
>2 lbs of beans
>two heads of garlic
>12 onions
>salt
>pepper
>2 lbs assorted vegetables
>2 lbs chicken breast
How much should that cost overall if we're buying this in fucking Walmart, roughly?

not enough garlic and seasonings. well maybe idk, is a lb 0.5kg?

>>9420557
He grossly missed the mark on that one.

where i live people barely eat beans at all, i dont remember ever seeing them outside of some salad bars
i have always wondered how do americans and europeans eat so many beans, what do you make with them?

>>9420598
I eat them with rice, some salad and some meat.

I think cooking your own avocado toast is probably cheaper than getting it at a bistro. Millenials are painfully stupid with their money. My youngest brother is one of them and absolutely kills me to see the shit he wastes money on when he has so little of it (unemployed).

>>9420607
My youngest brother is in debt because he likes to go to the champagne room in strip clubs and wonders where all his money went (he has a degree in general business that he never used). He barely clears 39k USD a year and lives in NYC.

>>9420573
1kg is 2.2 lb

20ish bucks. But I could do it for cheaper if I wasn't limited to walmart. There prices aren't the best.

>>9420637
I went with Walmart just because it's pretty ubiquitous, but supposing best possible prices, how much is it? Also, add another head of garlic and some extra stuff for seasoning.

>>9420572
Making some pessimistic estimates, I came with $35. In reality, probably less than that.

Isn't cooking the cheap choice?
You don't have to buy the oil, spices, rice, legumes every day.

You can also cook your food and freeze it to use for other days.

>>9420572
The rice and beans would drive that up a lot here in Denmark actually. But you're not supposed to get 1-kg bags of those at a supermarket; you get sacks at the bazaar or Asian market. Doing that I guess I could make that shopping list for $20.

>>9420665
Yeah, I'm from Brazil where they're sold in bags of 1kg/2kg in most supermarkets but they're dirt cheap due to how they're everywhere.

>>9420557
I'm pretty sure that the internet and the focus on food in recent years have made millennials more likely to attempt cooking - particularly cooking new things - than previous generations. It's certainly the impression I get, most older people I know act like people who can cook are wizards, whereas most younger ones I know can grasp the basics.

Fuck both of these people, the first one is some bitter old shit, the second is a whiny inflation-artist.

>>9420557
Keep that autist on /v/ please. Plus the dude is fucking fat

I assume everyone I'm talking to on the Internet is American. I just set lbs to roughly 0,5 kg and an inch to 2,5 cm mentally for conversion.

Still, it's a weak counter. I'm assuming the analogy has to do with work (cook) and play (eat). Of course a lot of people don't want to work, but how can one "not afford" to? Is he collecting disability or something?

>>9420572
70 USD

>>9420643
A head of garlic is like 10¢. Spices can be had in bulk for a few dollars each depending.

>>9420572
I can get like 5 pounds of chicken breast at Wal-Mart for about $10 in the US if that helps any. I also bought a box of 4 pounds of rice for $6 in that same trip but I could have gotten it cheaper in a bag.

I got about $50 from looking at the online order app for a store close to me, but I couldn't do exact weight for any fresh ingredients. Walmart would probably be about the same price.
>>9420643
Mexican/hispanic grocery stores can be the cheapest places for a lot of ingredients. They're one of the nicer little things about living in a border state.

Have you shopped lately, your prices are wrong. 4 pounds of rice is closer to 6 dollars, Walmart beans dry are about 1.60 for a pound , two heads of garlic is 3 dollars, 12 onions will be more like 5 dollars, six if you want anything other than regular white onions

>>9421043
>The prices in my local place are the prices of things in the entire world.

>>9421045

Walmart brokers huge distribution deals, so yes staples through out walmart are relatively in the same price range unless you live in california or alaska, then its slightly more expensive.

>>9420559
'B-but healthy food is expensive! Junk food is so much cheaper!'

>>9420572
Buying in bulk would be cheaper in the long run.

>better off buying a gallon of vegetable oil $5
>50lb bag of jazmine rice from the asian market $30, you can find cheaper quality rice for 2lb for a dollar
>peruvian beans on sale you can find for a dollar a pound a couple times a year you might fimd 2lb for a dollar, pinto beans are usually cheaper than that
>Garlic is sold in a pack of about 5 for around $3
>onions are around4lbs for a dollar
>kosher salt is usually a little over a dollar
>pepper is around $1/oz for pre ground more expensive for whole
>vegetables are usually under a dollar a pound
>chicken breast is usually $1.99/lb but I would recommend leg quarters or thighs and drum sticks which i have seen go as low as 49¢ for leg quarters and ¢77 for legs and thighs

I would also recommend potatoes which are nearly always 10¢/pound in 10lb sacks. Some times when potatoes are plenty full i have seen them go for 2lb/10¢

Pork picnic should is also great because it constantly goes on sale for 79¢ a pound.

Beef chuck roasts (choice) is a good buy in my area when is goes to 2.99$/lb

I would guess $25 would be more than enough to buy everything on your list. You could save money if you went with thighs and then trim them and render the fat from the trimmings to make schmaltz.

>>9420557
THey can't afford to cook, because they're faggots and don't understand how to live. Too buy obsessing over whether or not their skinny jeans go with their vintage bobble touq and whether or not their favorite shitty-sounding band is too popular.

Fuck off with that shit, a 20lb bag costs like $15

>>9420572
The US is so big that there is no good general price for these ingredients. I don't shop at wal-mart generally, but I doubt the prices would be much better than at Albertsons where I do shop. All these ingredients (assuming not frozen veggies and chicken), would be about $40. Not too bad, considering I could probably feed myself for more than 2 weeks on that.

>4 pounds of rice is closer to 6 dollars
??? last month I got a 5lb bag for $2.50. Then again I got generic long grain rice.

>>9420572
just checked my local supermarket's shop from home link.
>store brand canola oil 24 oz $1.99 ea
>Rico brand Long Grain Rice 20 lb $7.99
>store brand Kidney Beans - Dark Red 40 oz $1.79 can
>2 Pack Garlic Bulbs $0.66
>store brand Salt - Iodized or Plain 26 oz $0.59
>Mi Pepito brand Ground Black Pepper 1.25 oz $1.19
>Carrots 1 lb $0.99 - Russet Potatoes 5 Lb Bag $1.69 - Tomatoes On The Vine 1 lb $0.99
>Perdue or Tyson brand chicken thighs (because breasts are inferior, you pleb), $0.99/lb

so that's 4 + 8 + 1.8 + .66 + .6 + 1.2 + 1 + 1.7 + 1 + 2 = $22 and you have five times the rice, an extra half pound of beans, enough salt for months, and at least 4 lb more of potatoes than you asked for

i'm in the NYC area, so prices aren't even dirt cheap, as they would near farm country

>>9421237

If your doing this you got to get some salts and spices to flavor that food. Mince meat is also a nice change from chicken depending on price in your area. Great staple diet for its cost.

Any thoughts on how to improve the food or the dishes made with this food ? I feel like this a simple list that is difficult to perfect.

>>9421043
What? You can get a 50lb bag of rice at costco for 15 dollars.

Dry beans are around .25-30c a lb at most, 3 heads of garlic is maybe slightly over a dollar, and a large bag of onions comes in near 3 dollars.

Stop lying on the internet. Unless you live in NYC, then just move out of libshitholes

>>9420572
$3.50

Nah about $20. In fact, I will look up the local walmart price and part it out for you.
>1 Gallon of Canola oil: $6.18
>5lb sac of walmart rice: $2.32
>2lb black beans: $2.34
>2 Heads of garlic: $1
>Salt & Pepper: $2
>2lbs assorted veggies: $3
>5lb chicken (thigh): $5.50

So that's a pre-tax cost of: $22 and some change, and that's getting twice your amount of chicken and a gallon of fucking oil.

The average poorfag will spend more than $22 in a day subsisting on fast food alone, especially if feeding a family.
