I just bought 50 15-ounce cans of Hormel chili at $0.60 a can with the coupon plus the store special. It’s not gourmet food, but if we get hungry, that’s a lot of adequate meals.
A person can actually live on about $1.50 a day, food-wise.
You won’t get fat, and you won’t be eating any filet mignon, but you won’t starve!
