Were you guys eating out all the time?

$480 per month😬

Idk maybe it's being in NYC

Was who eating out all the time?

I count eating out in my same calculation as groceries

hm

If I spend more on eating out, I try to spend less on groceries to make up

I probably spend at least $700 a month groceries and eating out. But I have a wife and 3 kids.

...but all black comedy shows are a dime a dozen. 🤔

Frozen vegetables are a great way to eat healthy and live on little money.

>eating plants

$30 of meat, frozen veggies and a bag of rice was my college grocery shopping

plain greek yogurt typically always has sales - it's high protein

>Asian food market

I've spent $146 so far this month on food and drinks, and that includes about $70 spent eating out at IE meetups

Did you know that IE meetups are 14% of my schedule but commit 55% of my grocery budget?

@Jacob I didn't before but now I do

It's money well spent. Food is fine, but food and fellowship is fantastic.

I never spend more than $10 eating out

I spend about $130 per month on Half&Half

@Virgil I can barely get away with less than that at Chick Fil A these days. <:sad:366743316475281408>

Half gallon

@DairyMaxx true to your name

I buy 6 to7 large V8's a week for quick vegetable consumption.

Of course I don't eat out much, I just cook pasta at home and make sweet pot fries

@ThisIsChris Source is Jacob's Budget Table 43

@Jacob you have to subtract out the hispanics though

Spaghetti is disgustingly cheap, but not very healthy. 1 dollar at dollar stores for a double box.

I eat a plant maybe every two weeks. People spending money on rice or pasta astonishes me.

How do you get Vitamin K?

@ThisIsChris Did you know that Tabasco is counted as mayonnaise in those statistics, which inflates the mayonnaise share?

@Selma Look for the little K symbol in a circle on foods

I want my antioxidants and minerals

I have an 8 oz. cup of tomato juice each morning. That's 2 servings of veggies.

@Jacob of course they never make the distinction

Always drink tomato juice with a source of fat - lycopene is fat soluble @Singleton Mosby WV

@DairyMaxx There are 1,902 fat calories in a half gallon of Half&Half. How can you consume that much Half&Half on a daily basis and maintain IE's fitness standards? <:really:453005408064241674>

Currently surviving on coffee and pickled venison sausages

@Selma find this for vitamin K

Thanks, Chris.
