    how the hell do you manage that? not sure if the uk is cheaper than the US for groceries but i spend around $480 a month here in britain and i know i could spend more if i had more cash to do so but it is still a lot of food to get through. I do buy a lot of 'value' stuff and wholesale foods though which probably brings down the bill.
    To give you an idea i get 24 big chicken breasts for £17 ( about $26). How does that compare to the US? i know it varies state to state but it would be interesting to know

    steak every day!!! That sounds delicious, maybe that's my problem... I look at steak once a week as as 'treat' for myself. For some reason I under the impression of steak several times a week was bad? Probably the same person that said eggs were bad for me... funk that noise!

    Steak has a lot of iron in it - having too much iron can be an issue (too much stored iron can become toxic), which is generally why it is recommended to have red meat ~3 times a week. However, if it's not causing you problems and you're not eating it in HUGE quantities, then you could be ok with it.

    haha nah, I dunno... I go and I buy chicken breasts, eggs, oats, some veggies, grape fruit usually, peanut butter. Some things last longer to use up than 1 week, things like going out to dinner with the gf happen so food is then shifted to another day and I've got some carry over come the next shopping day. But my bill compared to some of you guys is grossley skewed! I gotta get my eat on I guess

    about $45-$50 per week for me not counting protein powder. I goto Box N Save. I have a pound steak once per week.

    I agree, I don't know where people are shopping for a weeks worth of food for 35 bucks. I've even gone to costco and priced diff of what I pay at publix and it didn't really save much and I'd have to drive pretty far to get to a costco. Their frozen chicken was not much less than publix. My chili recipe in one of my threads didn't have a lot of ingredients and ended up about 35 bucks alone just for that batch.

    It's honestly cheaper to live off of protein powder and oats.
