Oh come on. I feed my family for less than that.

The 10-pound pack of ground beef will make four meals: spaghetti, sloppy Joes, tacos and hamburgers.

2-1/2 lbs per meal for spaghetti sauce, sloppy joes and tacos for a family of 5? 2-1/2 pounds will make about 25 tacos.

And 20 quarts of spaghetti sauce. 2 quarts per meal means 10 meals. I use 1 quart per meal for my family of 3 and still have leftovers.

Yep. I regularly make up a double batch of taco meat and freeze half of it for a "fast food" dinner. I do that with many things, cook once and eat twice.
