Fact is, in Russia you can feed a family of 3 well for a month on $60.

You must REALLY like potatoes.

A dollar will buy you a loaf of very good bread (not that Wonder bread crap) and 2kg of potatoes. I go food shopping often enough (actually my wife has stopped me, I buy to much extra crap) and a loaf of equal quality bread costs us $3-$4.
