[For best results, stock the door with a pound of butter ($4), two bottles of salad dressing ($5), a bottle of orange juice ($4), a bottle of apple juice ($4.50), extra virgin olive oil ($8), and a case of bottled water ($9). Remember such condiments as ketchup ($3), mustard ($1.50), pickle relish ($2.50), and barbecue sauce ($3) to give your meals zing....]

I wait for butter to be $2 to $2.50.
Apple Juice goes on sale for 99 cents for 32oz here.
Salad dressing - even name brands can be had on sale 3 for $5. Or $1 at one grocery store bargain aisle.
EVOO (cheap version) is $1 at one grocery store.
Ketchup is regularly on sale for 99 cents or $1 for 16oz.
Mustard I can find for 69 cents to $1 off brand.
BBQ sauce will be 69 cents to 99 cents on sale.
Off brand relish is about $1.50.
Bottle water - they regularly run a 24-pack for $2 to $2.50.
WM has a 35 large bottle pack for $3.50.
Orange juice was $6 / gallon at WM.
WM near me also had 36 medium or large eggs for $1.20 the other day. If I didn’t already have 18 and limited space...

Now, milk prices at Texas Aldi’s were just awesome. $1.89 Vitamin D gallon and no sales tax. Awesome.

I am so blessed and happy to be able to afford better foods than those you list.

And I do give thanks.

$1 for EVOO. No thanks.

Where the heck does that reporter shop? Looking at my receipts -

BBQ sauce is another buy something and get it free but is normally $1.
Butter $2.97 never goes on sale
Grapes $1.88 lb
Spinach .88
Zucchini $1.18 lb
Bell peppers .68
3 Romaine $2.64
Carrots - $1.09
Apples - .88
Franks - .69 12 oz pork/chicken/beef/demonrats/whatever
Ground beef $2.16 lb
Chicken breasts $1 lb
“Buy meat twice during the week, as it can spoil in just a few days.” Uh, there’s this neat invention called a freezer so I only have to grocery shop every 6 weeks.
Who buys imported Irish cheese with no calories?
Who stores peanut butter in the fridge?
That picture of the reporter’s fridge is weird.

Aldi (at least in Central Florida ) is one of the best places to pick up eggs, butter , milk , and fresh produce .
A lb of butter at Aldi here is 2.99 and it’s 4.00 + anywhere else . They put it on sale for 2.69 and I buy extras and put it in the freezer . I buy a lot of produce there when I am not growing my own .
