Does your University have a buffet style cafeteria? If so then you know what to do. Bring a big backpack or deep pockets.

Buy in bulk.

You can buy huge bags of rice and beans for a tiny amount of money.

This guy gets it.
Buy food that is not perishable in bulk.
Tinned stuff, dried stuff, and frozen foods.

I still don't understand why people don't get this
my diet now is cheaper than the stuff I've been stuffing my face with before

>fresh
That's your problem. Buy them frozen. They are a lot cheaper.

This. Buy huge bulk packs of non-perishables, rice and beans and frozen veggies and chicken breast and ground beef etc. Then find a nice store to buy fresh stuff from when you need it.

Frozen veggies are cheap as fuck and are as good as fresh.

Buying FRESH fruits and veggies is largely unnecessary and is often used as an excuse by poor-anons to not change their diet.

Fresh is irrelevant. Just veggies and sometimes fruit, canned/frozen/whatever.

I don't even know where this meme comes from
I'm poor as fuck, but I still get 1kg of fresh bananas for 1,59€.. pears and nectarines go for the same price
they get even cheaper when on discount (it's not unusual for fruit to be more that 50% off on saturday evenings, but you only have the leftovers then)

>>38652934
is this all you eat in a day? just that and water, 6 bananas seems odd but they aren't that expensive even in canada, I can get 8 at costco for 2 bucks

It's fucking september you moron. Go steal apples from a neighbour.

>>38652246
Canned and frozen veg is fairly cheap
Locally farmed/gathered foods
Fishing and hunting are cheap but if you need protein then beans and eggs are cheap as hell.

I've read somewhere that you can survive off of potatoes, organic eggs, and real full cream butter alone because it fills all of your macro and micronutrient needs.

But I'll have to check on that.

>we only have processed crap ie packet pies / dinners

Another family too stupid to budget and ignorant to learn how to cook nutritious meals on the cheap then?

Lentis, rice, dried beans in bulk, cheap cuts of chicken, potatoes, oats and frozen veggies. And hunt for bargains you dunce.
