I'd rather have good food than mods... lol

 

^lol you dont need to mod an M3...or a miata! theyre both fun out of the box...er ship

 

was she from Hawaii by any chance?

 

Why would he pay MORE for organic crap, when he can buy conventional fruit for less?



<-- farmer

 

^ yeah Roo's subscription thing is cool, but organic will eat all your money.

organic is another word for, let me tack on another few dollars to that bag of fruits and vegetables.

shouldnt organic be cheaper since there is less work going into the crop?

 

tasty AND weight conscious. Whats not to love!?

 

Nope, filipina chick from SF.

 

lol yeah vienna sausage n rice is the bomb. I also add some tabisco mixed in with the ketchup. Can't get any cheaper than that. That's pinoy food.

 

There's actually about the same amount of work, it's more physical and less mechanized. But it's also cheaper becuase they're 1. a "premium product" and 2. they're produced in smaller quantities so they can't spread their costs as well.

 

Peanut butter is a great source of protien. Make a sandwich, and you've got a decent balance of carbs and protien. Wash it down with a tall glass of milk.

 

in college i ate alot of ground turkey. a 1 lb chub cost about $1-2. cheap and healtheir than ground beef. just season it well and its not that different. had it with pasta (also cheap), burgers, tacos (mixed w/ frozen veggies and tomato sauce.) you are not supposed to re-freeze it so i would just make the whole thing and save the rest for leftovers.

i also tried to get creative with tuna, but i couldn't find anything better than tuna sandwiches mixed with boiled eggs.

lately i have been eating the "eating right" frozen lunches from safeway. taste good actually and can't beat the price at $2 a pop.

 

Because for that $17.00, he'd get enough vegetables (and fruit) to last a week...

...and if you're a farmer, what do you farm? Do you offer subscriptions which offer a weekly VARIETY of vegetables? Do you offer salad mix greens AND fresh corn, AND zucchini AND tomatoes, AND carrots in the same week?

Didn't think so.

 

You can still eat healthy for relatively cheap.

Breakfast: Hardboiled eggs, oatmeal, milk.

Lunch: .99c chicken sandwiches from Jack in the Crack.

Dinner: A rotisserie chicken from safeway.

 

404 Healthy not found

Pre-formed chicken on a white bun slathered with mayo for lunch, and greasy, sodium-injected chicken for dinner?

I found it interesting though that it really isn't easy to eat healthy on a budget. Case in point: The Cost of 200 Calories

 

^Realistically eating healthy and on the cheap really don't go hand in hand.

I guess you could substitute the jack in the crack chicken sandwich for a Met-RX shake for lunch. Those rotisserie chickens aren't that bad, I wouldn't say it's any worse for you than a burger or pizza. Plus you can just eat the white meat only if you want.
