Those of you eating on $5 or less a day, except the rice and beans people, are living off packaged things that are full of poison. Mono sodium glutamate is a neurotoxin and most of you had it at least double in your meals. I know a lot about it because I am deathly sensitive to it so I have to avoid it. I can’t eat packaged food, and must seek out or make my own special seasonings or sauces.
And if you seek to avoid the problems to the immune system from modern “wheat,” and the inflammation from rancid seed oils (all are), you cannot eat commercial food. You must seek fresh meat, dairy, and produce. That gets harder to do cheaply.
The truth is, if you wanted to eat fresh and healthy, and cheap, you’d have to source cheap pastured eggs and meat, healthy cow dairy, veggies and fruit, and fill in with potatoes and white rice. Depending on how close you are to farms, you could do it, especially with a freezer, for a reasonable amount. Maybe not $5 a day. Though adults off sugar and grains can skip a meal because their blood sugar doesn’t go low very soon.
It makes me sad to think freepers think packaged food is food. Most of that crap in the middle of the store has almost NOTHING your body could ever use to replenish and heal. And it DOES contain toxins that continue any ongoing destruction, from cancer to other chronic conditions. So while your stomach and mouth are fooled into thinking you are “satisfied,” inside you are malnourished. You guys GET IT with the way the libs fool us, and the media too. But some of you don’t get it re “food business.” If you get the chance, read up on paleo (robb wolf, paleohacks.com, etc) or Weston a. Price, or any real food websites or books.
I always try to do my shopping by avoiding the middle aisles of a grocery store. The more you stay away from the processed foods the better off you are.
But you always need some variety.
Not here. I can't afford packaged things. Yesterday, my breakfast was an apple (.65) and lunch was ham, cheese and onions (<$2). Family dinner for four for about $2.50 a plate was a 2 lb pork loin ($4), canned peas (.50), fresh carrots (.39) and homemade fresh rhubard pie ($6). I finished off the pie for breakfast today, yum. BTW, most beverages are well water.
