Best advice? Learn how to actually cook and buy scratch commodities... Flour, sugar, salt, lard, dry beans and rice, Etc. Make “Depression cakes” that need no eggs or milk and are just as good... We are in a depression... Dig into history... Adapt and adjust lifestyle accordingly...

We only spend $300 a month on food for three adults and three dogs doing this and eat just fine.

I cook all the time, and the basic staples are what you need to make anything. Supplement that with meat and veggies. An occasional goodie, like homemade cookies is always fun. I do get the Aldi’s take and bake pizzas and freeze them. They are awesome, and $5.99 gets a large 16” pizza. Rarely do I shop the inside aisles at the grocery store, except for the baking and spice aisle.
