why do you need 7 limes

>>37255706

I was with a girl 5 years ago who got food stamps and she got like $300-$400 a month, so the image is retarded for more than one reason

>>37255765

You mean 'get for free on top of whatever they already buy themselves'.

>>37255706
Way too many limes. Where I'm from, Kansas, limes cost 2 for a dollar. I am seeing 7 limes in that picture. That is $3.50 of limes.

>>37255706

I live in a pretty shitty part of a poor city. The closest place to get groceries is a Dollar General. Every single fucking time I go there, almost every customer is using their EBT card.

And you know what? Every single fucking one of them has too many kids. If you are poor and on food stamps, ONE kid is too many. Three, four, five (the norm) is way too fucking many.

My wife is a social worker who deals with all these poors for a living and the one thing they all have in common is they cannot for some god damn reason stop having kids or family plan correctly.

It drives me fucking nuts. Every time I go into that god damn Dollar General, there is some 20-something woman with 3-5 kids so it's no wonder they buy nothing but cheap processed foods which is why they're all morbidly obese.

Some people realize that the government pays them more welfare if they have more children, and then legitimately think to themselves:

>Huh. I should make more spawn.

And have more kids because somehow they don't realize that more kids are now expensive than the extra money they get from the government.

One of my friends was told by their mother that extra government money is the only reason they exist. Despicable people who don't realize what they're doing. All white family with a single mother and 9 kids, so the mother could make more money. Some people are just bad people.

You don't eat 1900 for the rest of your life, is the answer. If you're in a cut or whatever and 500 below your tdee is 1900, then you'd eat at 1900 for that period of time. You switch between cutting and bulking as you need to. This isn't rocket science.

Paltrow is a lying Liberal Progressive - That food is about $12.00 at any grovery store - and SNAP benefits are NOT $29.00 per week.

Welfare recipients get anywhere from $309 - $4500 / month is cash and rental assistance and from $125 and up depending on the number of children in the household in food stamps or SNAP benefits.

Again, Paltrow is a liar and a fraud. I work for the Government and know exactly what were paying these people. And the Welfail system is ripe for fraud and should be done away with - it allows lazy bums to live of the money YOU provide by getting up and going to work in the morning.

Exactly. Also not mentioning that this is not the amount of money you get on snap. Fucking retard liberals. You actually get more than ten times this much money for a family, and if you spend it on normal food like rice, beans, and chicken breast instead of fucking kale and limes then your money goes further.

Plus we were doing physical labor during the day, still got enough calories to maintain weight. It's not actually that hard if you don't fucking kill yourself buying awful garbage.

I've worked as a cashier in grocery stores. Poor people are stupid as shit, hence why they're poor. I only spend 20 to 30 a week to bulk, yet I still eat like a king.

>tfw 2 slices of bacon, toast with some light butter, oatmeal with bananas, cinnamon, strawberries, and honey, and a glass of juice or coffee every morning for breakfast

Store brand is amazingly cheap. .50 an avocado, .48 cents/lb of bananas, .99 cent eggs on sale, less than $3 for 2 weeks worth of oatmeal, $8 for fresh chicken breast for the week.

what can you even make with that garbage? It's like a blind person was set loose picking out ingredients.

>>37260631
ok i'm not even trying to argue anymore. is it not embarrassing to get a huge package of toilet paper in the mail from Amazon? do you have a technique for it? i know everyone poops but i think i'd rather bring it home from the store than have it sitting on my doorstep when i get home from work. i don't have a 50k income either but i have 46k which costs me about 9k in taxes BEFORE obamacare. i have never been able to afford a 1 bedroom at this income anywhere in Florida. in the time i have lived in Florida no less than five people have been shot in or around my apartments. i live in the ghetto. i shop at dollar general, family dollar, the dollar store, and walmart. and i'm serious about the toilet paper from amazon. tell me your secrets, i was not trying to insult you.

where the hell do you live?

even here in germany you get chicken breast for around €5 per kg

>>37260750
the box is like the size of a drink cooler but square. it does have the original box which says toilet paper on it. I just watch slickdeals and buy some if I am running low. I don't care if it sits in front of the door all day. just a bunch of people walking dogs in the neighborhood or old people strolling. I lived in fl for ten years before leaving for md. There's no state tax in Florida. my mom had a house in central fl making a lot less than 50k. I had a friend renting a 2br apt for like 800ish in Orlando. she was making 50k and her apt wasn't in the ghetto either. so idk what's wrong with ur numbers m8

>>37260999
what is that in freedom units?

>>37261037
$5.6 for 2.2 lbs

so around $2.50 per pound of chicken breast

>>37260997
Did you? Do you really need it spelled out for you? It's an income supplement used solely for nutritional purposes so the income can be used for other necessities. Its intent is that you use it to buy the all the reasonable food you need since you don't have much, if any, money to spare after covering necessities. If the intent was for the people using it to use their own income to cover it, then the government would provide waivers to reduce the cost, thus saving more of the person's income.

>>37261151
It's an income supplement so you don't have to spend your limited income on food. Why is that so difficult to understand? The entire point is that SNAP absorbs the cost of buying food so one's income is not spent on it. That's precisely why it's calculated based on household need relative to income

yes my mom because I was 15 in late 2005 when she bought a 2/2 in a quiet ruralish area that's been developed a whole lot since. making less than 46k. I knew that Orlando girl in 2011, she bailed on that apt a year ago bc the rent was going up to like 950-1k.

46k isn't living in the ghetto in fl where you hear gunshots at night and unironically shop at dollar general. i prefer aldi and they have toilet paper also. most people are shitty with money and money doesn't go far in Florida so I guess I should feel bad you can't make it on 46. file for bankruptcy bc you must be way in over your head with debt.

The reason that meme exists is because if you want anything cheap and healthy you need to make it yourself from scratch. Cooking is a pain in the ass and takes time... it's the hardest part of getting fit for me personally.

Compare that to buying some ultra fatty/sugary snack food with 800 calories/serving and which only needs to be opened before you can eat it. If Walmart didn't have their awesome pre-made salads I'd still be eating either that snack shit or loaves of bread.

Paltrow is rich, so this is what she thinks is normal food. She's really just ignorant of the value of money. Once you get above a certain income you stop looking a price tags and just pick whatever you like at the grocery store.

This is false and autistic. Rice, beans and starches are cheap as dirt, and are quite calorie dense. Eggs have a good ratio calories/prices too imo. No one eats limes, kale, lettuce etc as a source of calories.

>1 kg dried lentils: less than 1.5€
>2 kg rice: a bit more than 1.5€

That's 10.5k calories for less than 3 €. Lets say the average guy needs 2000 cals, so you can feed a family of 4 adults during a week for less than 16€, and you can probably find it cheaper if you buy on a bulk too. Spend the extra 15€ on cheap veggies, and you can probably change part of the lentils for fats too (75g of protein per day is 20g more than what most sedentary americans need).

But yeah, america is fucking stupid no matter what.

those guys will never make it

$30 = £20

1 week, 1 person.
prices taken from packaging in my fridge and pantry, mostly bought at tesco.

500g steak mince = £1.70
onion and garlic pasta sauce 1kg = £1
500g wholegrain pasta = £1
8 soft taco shells = £1
1 head of lettuce = 50p
4 onions = £1
6 bulbs of garlic = £1
8 tortia wraps = £1
12 eggs = £1.20
1.5kg flour = 60p
1kg jar curry sauce = £1
2kg brown rice = £1
2 naan breads = £1
bag of sliced bread = £1.40
jar of penut butter = 80p
500g grated chedder cheese = £2
250g chicken breast = £1
400g smoked backon = £1
2 bell peppers = 80p

total = £20 (all item costs are rounded up to the nearist 0.10)

With this shopping list i have choices all week depending on what i want, e.g.
chicken and rice
chicken curry, homemade onion bajis and naan breads
chicken pasta
mince pasta and cheese
tacos
borittos
pb sandwiches
bacon sandwiches
armadillo eggs
pancakes
ect...

This shit is easy, and the next week the shopping will be even cheaper as you wont use up all those onions, flour, pasta, rice, pasta sauce, sometimes eggs, flour, peanut butter.


I live on close to the same budget and I work and feed 2 people.

Obviously its alot cheaper here in england but thats no excuse, im bulking well on this, so they can at least maintain.

We have to encourage a return to traditional moral values. Most importantly, we have to promote general social concern and less materialism in young people.

Gardening is definitely the best way to get fresh vegetables in a tropical climate if you have the space for it.

Farther north, it's a pain in the ass. Everything dies in winter, so most of the year you get nothing, then you get a huge pile of stuff and don't know what to do with it all. A herb garden in a window is nice, though.

Yeah, man. And "retard" just means "slow down", people just use it incorrectly.

Languages don't change over time, people just make more and more mistakes. For instance, modern English is just very badly spoken Old English.

If she was going Mexican, shouldn't she have started with lard and masa instead of kale and cilantro?

You can live a long time on just lard, masa, and beans with a multivitamin, for a dollar or two a day. Adequate calories are really cheap, and once you know how to survive for cheap, you can spend whatever surplus you have on flavorful and nutritious supplements.

"I had to stop because I got hungry." is fucking stupid.

It is not supposed to be you're entire food budget, it is supposed to supplement and assist for your food budget

You are supposed to provide the rest with your own money

Beggars can't be choosers.

This past spring break, I only had 20 dollars left for food for the week after spending all of my money on drugs and alcohol
I was able to buy 5 lbs of chicken thighs, 60 eggs, and a bag of potatoes.

You play this game where you hide 7 limes in your house and then you hang yourself.

When coroners come for your body, they'll be like "What's IS the deal with all these limes?"

What's the point of this?

I lived with my sis when she was going to college since mom dad thought it was dangerous for her to live alone. Sister got on snap and we got like 200$ a month just for her and we lived off that very very VERY well.

I split it up to 50$ every Friday or Thursday. By month 3 I already had a stockpile of chicken, pork chops, salmon, hamburger meat in the freezer. It was getting to the point that I could let my sis get her candies and shit and it didn't even hurt the food budget at all.

>dumbass niggers using their food stamps on shit food while I am eating Salmon almost on a weekly basis.

Yeah you see retards with boxes of fruit loops and cheez-it's going on their snap cards. Imagine how the country could be if we could actually educate hood rats. Get them out of the system and actually contributing. Too bad they don't listen to whitey no mo.
