How much do you spend on food? What does that food go towards?

I got lucky that a store near me (Albertsons) constantly had sales on meat. Literally ate chicken, broccoli, potatoes, mixed veggies, brown rice and a few more here and there for about $40-45 a week.

Literally would buy 10 lbs of chicken a week for about $15

I spend roughly 200€ per month on food.
A hell lot of meat (around 2 Kg of chicken breast per week, and tha shit is 8.53€ per Kg) and a hell lot of fresh veggies, though I usually got sales or reductions of sorts from vendors (I go to an outdoor market place). Buying very ripe stuff and cooking them or just putting them in the fridge can do wonders. My starch comes either from sweet potatoes, brown rice or beans/lentils, so I don't spend this much on them. Then, fruits (banana and apples, mostly, with avocados, peaches or oranges and nuts) and cheese. I also use oats and soy milk for breakfast.
Alternative to PB could be cheese, but it's way more costly.
Then I try to meal prep the starch/veggies, sometimes the meat, though I also spend quite a lot of time cooking on the spot.
It's erratic really, and I'm absolutely not on a budget so I go for expensive stuff sometimes.

As for a routine, I usually eat 5 460 cals meal.

>Breakfast
40g rolled oats
100mL soy milk
A banana
An apple
PB or tangerine to get roughly to 460 Cals

>lunch
Chicken Brest
Starch (rice/sweet potato/quinoa/corn)
Veggies
Cheese
Apple
More cheese to get to 460 Cals

>Snack
Avocado
Raw veggies soup
Starch (Beans or lentils)
cheese or fruit or PB to get to 460 cals

>Dinner
Same as lunch

>Evening snack
Salad (tomatoes/cucumber/mushrooms/salad)
Starch (bens or lentils, or sometimes grain)
Low fat cottage cheese
PB, or a piece of fruit, or cheese, to hit my daily goal

Not sure it helps, but if anyone as any remark on the diet I'll be grateful.

Where's your Greek yogurt you fucking pleb

>>38657942
Go find me some greek yoghurt in France and we'll talk... There only ONE fucking brand that has it, it's uncommon, and expensive as fuck. y fat free cottage cheese has roughly the same macros for less than a quarter of the price.

Ikr, 5€ for 500g 0% fage c'mon...

>>38657980
Except it's quite hard just to come buy this shit, never seen it... And I already shop from 5 different places, so I won't bother for a sixth... Plus, what I use has really close macros (for 100g, 49 Cals, 7.7 g prot. good enough)

Muslims sicken me

all that effort only to fuck it up from the get-go with soy milk

>How much do you spend on food?
~21% of my monthly income goes to food
>What does that food go towards?
Mass. I need more mass. BMI 32 is barely enough, I need more. Ofcourse maintaining basic human function, like deadlifting double bw, benchpressing bw for 10 reps, doing at least 10 pullups and 5 handstand pushups, while I gain mass.
>What are your alternatives to "essentials" like peanut butter if you're allergic to it?
Peanut butter is not an essential.
>Basically, whats your food routine?
Pork, kidney beans, green peas, tomatoes, bell peppers. Rice, whole wheat pasta, buckwheat.
Oats, milks and berries. Eggs.

Yeah I know, I'll probably die from 100 mL of soy milk per day right!

The fromage blanc 0% from Auchan has 10g prot per 100gr for 1€/kg, 50kcal/100gr i guess

$100 a week

Just for me :)

I use the one from Carrefour. I'd say the difference is quite negligible, considering I hit very easily more than 1g of prot per pound of BW...
