I am trying to lower my grocery bill. I have no shortage of money. It is more of a social experiment.
I currently pay:
2lb rice for $1.50
1lb lentils for $1.50
16oz Salad Dressing for $1.50
On large can spaghetti sauce for $1
I am not sure how to make salad dressing for under $1.50.
I am also thinking about making my own quick bread because whole wheat flower is 5lb for $2.50.
Does anyone have any suggestions to lower my food bill to an even lower lever. I estimate that I spend about $1 a day to feed myself. But, I am on a diet because my evil doctor wants me to lose weight due to my high blood pressure. When I return to a 2,000 calorie diet, I expect to pay closer to $2 a day.
I have a vague memory of my dad going vegan before he died. I completely forgot this until a couple weeks ago. In any event, he was spending $0.50 a day. Plus, he said that he was eating healthy.
I would consider dumpster diving at grocery stores to save money. But, my wife would get very upset. Still, any meat retrieved from the dumpster would be vegan in my opinion. Nevertheless, meat attracts flies and cockroaches. Thus, I do not want it in my home even if it is free.
Please give me your suggestions.
