That's all there is to it.
I actually eat relatively healthy - no fast food, no real shit. I eat expensive meals, that's all.

including doritos, 80ish a week i suppose. i dont pay for a lot of reef fish etc though
How the fuck do all of you live on < $200 a week of food?
Seriously.
I know I eat like a King, it;s my reward to myself for hundred hour work weeks. Iknow I over-do it with upscale dining.
But even if I wanted to back it off a little (I don't) I could not imagine spending under $200 (much less $100) per week.
Damn!

simple. no eating out.MattTheSkywalker said:
you eat 6 or so times a day. 2 meals are protein shakes of some sort (breakfast and post workout, usually, for convenience sake) which cost, about a dollar each. the remaining four meals consist of some decent carb source (rice, which costs all of 20 cents if youre lucky) plus some highish quality protein source (i go for reef fish, beef usually veal, and chicken breast fillet) which is going to cost maybe 2 bucks per meal, then some salad (which, if you get the ultimate vegetables on offer at the store, is only going to cost another couple of dollars per meal if that)
and there you go. personally i eat in a lot becasue im a food snob - i like the best cuts of meat and really good quality vegetables - and im a bit of a homebody anyway

I hear you bor, it is about priorities and what is important. I took care of all that other shit, now food is one of my favorite expenses.
What I really want, is a live-in chef....like where I give him a menu on Saturday, and he shops for all the ingredients for all the meals I want M-F.
That's the way to do it.
I was just thinking about this today as I was coming out of the grocery store with my cart full of food like I do every weekend.
For 2 adults and 1 child, I spend anywhere from 75-150 a week depending on what it's the cart. I try to choose what's on sale over what's not on sale, but I also do not cut coupons. Im thinking of starting to though. We dont really make a habit of eating out. For the most part, I even pack a lunch for both of us to take to work in the morning.
Groceries = ~100 + ~25 for eating lunch out sometimes = ~125

truth is bor, I hate cooking. Hate it. I hate the kitchen. Kitchen are for women, bor, I don't care how much hate I get on that, men do not belong in the kitchen.
Getting the kitchen ready, fucking around with food, measuring shit, throwing it in various cooking apparatuses (is that a word?) all that shit.
Then you get to eat, then cleaning up.
WTF? Cleaning up? into the dishwasher, putting it away, etc. Not in my world. I'll eat taco bell 3x a day before I cook.

Why wouldn't you eat them in an omlette?
Yes Beachbum, they can be bought in a carton at your grocery store, you can cook the in a pan, or in the mircowave. Here they're about $2.50 for 500ml (8 egg whites). And they taste just like a regular egg white.
