This, libtards need to stop voting for high taxes then fleeing from high taxes and voting for more high taxes where they move.
These images bother me, I want to know what they are making with those ingredients. But they never say. Those 2 lone tomato's, for what? Those cold cuts? At least the bagels and cream cheese make sense but frick sake man.
Just frustrating.
its standard meals just missing the meat, which presumably they get from elsewhere.
And the turkey? You going to explain the turkey now jackass? You fricking big league chew piece of shit.
Why the frick do I want to see SOME of the food they have and have them talk about food prices? What does it do for me?
Calm down cowboy
Alright, fair. Maybe I overstepped my bounds here, fair. Still wanna know what that wienersucker needed 2 packs of cold cut turkey for if that fricking moron didn't even buy bread to go with it and if he already had fricking bread why the frick that pricing fricking matters.
You can make sandwiches with bagels you dumb frick
You sound like you're stuck in a mindset where eating at home = you have to buy literally every ingredient at once because normally the fridge contains nothing but condiments, drinks and takeout containers. You don't usually go shopping to make one specific thing, you just have a mental inventory of what's on hand and pick up stuff to fill in the gaps week to week depending on what you feel like having
I feel I have been misunderstood. It makes perfect sense to build on what you have. My issue is these troglodytes that act like showing the prices for their food without bothering to fricking explain what they are making or what they already have makes no god damned wiener sucking sense. And the frick mothering morons that continue to act like any of those kinds of images mean jack or shit considering they come with any fricking context, frustrates me.
Hopefully you better understand my position.
Maybe you could give me a tour sometime, seeing as you know the place well enough to recommend it. Never been a fan of forums that require logins, or of people who imply putting cold cut turkey on a bagel is anything but a fricking disgrace.
Again dude, let go of your question of what they're making with only things in the pic. You just said you understand the concept of filling in the gaps, there could be dozens of things he's making over the next week he just happened to need that seemingly nonsensical haul. If you want I go down each item and take a guess at what he's doing with it
Actually, I'm pretty curious what they plan on doing with that taco kit
Cold cuts on bagel good! Cold cuts plain also good!! Get it through your head, Jack. This is 2022 and in this day and age we put turkey on bagels.

>You sound like you're stuck in a mindset where eating at home = you have to buy literally every ingredient at once because normally the fridge contains nothing
This. Most of my shopping is to just replace items I've used in the past few days. I wouldn't do 100% of my shopping at Publix, though I like them best. I enjoy throwing every damn item I see that looks good at Aldi into the cart and not even spend $100, and get enough veggies to make a literal salad bar going at home. Next time I shop might be a meat stockup for the freezer at like a Save-a-lot, where I'll divy up the chicken breasts into the freezer ziplocs. BOGO at winn-dixie will be next. Maybe BJs or Costco for a road trip and the snacks, plus TP and paper towels. I don't need 24 croissants at once all the time however.
consider
that all the food in their home is not in that picture
what the frick are you even going on about? you realize that the cream cheese and bagel go together but you know what else goes with it? the turkey. there's a million different meals you can make with this spread
I suppose I just havn't ever been that low in life. To be so out of touch with reality that the word deranged is putting it nicely. Have you actually done that? Cold cut turkey slices on a bagel? Really? Did hell just not have enough room for people like you or something? To even suggest such a thing?
please go back to r eddit. the tour is over
Black person I've personally seen hipster places serving cold cut bagel sandwiches for like $12. Don't make me start another fedora hypocrisy thread
And are you defending these hipster places? Or are you just sucking my nuts a bit too hard while giving a long winded yes to my question about hell overflowing?
frick off, summer
Pretty sure these are all bogo at Publix this week which is why they bought them. You can just buy one and get half off though.... Don't have to buy two...
Sure sure, fine makes sense. But my question remains. What are they doing with the turkey?
Does that not sound, genuinely, fricking terrible? No part of your mind considered how frickawful that would be? And did nothing inside your worthless gutter trash heart notice there is too much turkey for that to even make any god damned fricking sense?
Bagel sandwiches are fricking everywhere. They are better with sesame or everything bagels but every deli i go to has them

No you can't. That's not how BOGO works. Of you choose not to get one free, that's on you. But you can't buy one for half off.
Some places do. Food Lion does. But you're right that Publix doesn't.
They are making American "food", the more packaged it is before they start, the better.
Obsessed
Americans don't cook for meals, so they only buy ingredients when it's for snacks.

>I’m moving to Florida
Don't do it, it's not worth it
never understood that "helper" shit is it just a sauce packet and noodles or something?
Yes. I like it. If I tried to replicate it with better ingredients it wouldn’t taste the same. I like exactly how it tastes so I don’t mind that it’s just sauce and noodles in a box.
The problem with that gross hamburger helper powdered mix is that it gets hard as soon as the dish is slightly cold because it's just a bunch of starch. Not even microwaving it turns it back into sauce. Either way, that lasagna pack is just bolognese sauce. It's not that hard to make. It's just ground meat, tomato sauce with no sugar added, a bit of diced onions and garlic. As hard as the boxed directions.
Yea the seasoning packet is also the roux base, you add milk and butter along with the meat to make a quick casserole-thing. Can of course also add vegetables if you haven't completely given up
>but then why not just make-
it's fricking fast and cheap and I'm drunk
I'm about to leave Florida and move to Louisiana. Same amount of minorities and subtropical heat and humidity, but the rent is a third of what it is here.

Agreed. This place sucks canal water. Florida is trying to be more Texas than Texas because Desantis wants to be president.

Bread crumbs for...? Who the frick buys this random shit?
The taco kits are hilarious.. it's like 8 tortillas, a spice packet and a taco sauce packet for 6 bucks.
every woman in my white trash family buys them regularly. you can literally buy a stack of fresh tortillas, a bottle of taco sauce, a bottle of cumin, a bottle of cayenne and a bottle of garlic powder for the same price and make 10x the tacos.
Never fail when you see some fb grocery post complaining about prices there is completely moronic shit like this.
Taco kit is $3 at Publix and they're BOGO right now
Frick off with your superiority shit
shut up gay, those taco kits are indefensible
I'm sure that you make your own tortillas and everything. We all want to be you.
Ask me how I know you live alone.
No, I buy them fresh, in piping hot stacks of 30, wrapped in aluminum foil, for a buck from the Mexican grocer/butcher. I also have a girlfriend. Enjoy paying more for less, and getting inferior quality, though. I haven't even made a ground beef taco in like a decade.
Cope, seethe, dilate, etc
Live alone confirmed I guess.
>stacks of 30, wrapped in aluminum foil, for a buck
no you don't, i live in the area of highest population of Mexicans in FL and nowhere are you getting a deal that good
>I also have a girlfriend
you can buy corn tortillas in stacks of 100 for like $5.
this board is full of people who don't leave their own house
Those mixes and sauces in those kits don't even taste good either.
I only know that because I won some and threw them out. You're better off buying Romero tortillas.
8 tortillas for 6 bucks is a great price
I can buy 30 tortillas for $3 bucks.
Maybe they have.....

Most vegetables are like that in America ESL-kun. Others are wrapped to keep them fresh or undamaged, sometimes from being fingerfricked by troglodytes like you who squeeze half the shelf to see what is freshest.

Everything is wrapped in plastic because a permanent feces smog rolls over San Fran corrupting all foodstuffs.

????????????????????????????????
Nothing wrong with buying frozen vegetables. Modern freezing processes often results in better quality ingredients than buying "fresh" - especially when it's out of season for that particular ingredient
I like having a few bags of frozen mixed veg in my freezer. Cook some noodles, toss in the frozen veg to heat up. Once it's thawed crank the heat on high and get some browning, dump some seasoning in and you have a decent meal
That said, the other stuff is hardly what I'd go to if I'm trying to save money on food.
>parmesan
why is it so hard for you morons to buy some real parmigiano reggiano
It's expensive, whereas the bottle stuff is like $2. Most people can't "cook", and don't even own a grater. Stop pretending everyone is supposed to be some kind of foodie home chef. Look at what's popular and tell me humans have high standards about anything.
Also, the stuff in the can isn't even bad. The $10/lb stuff is only marginally better. You have to spend real money to get noticeably better cheese.
If you calculate by weight the bottle shit is more expensive than buying a wedge because it's fricking dust.
No it isn't. It's way cheaper. lol
They add plant cellulose to prevent caking. It's generally derived from corn stalks. Certainly real cheese is better, but the canned stuff tastes pretty close, for half the price and the "it's all sawdust!" hysterics are overblown.
how much is parmesan in america? Its so cheap here i practically consider it storecupboard - im not cooking with it every day and it lasts forever in the fridge. Buying regular cheese works out far more expensive - i dont see why youd buy shitty parm when the price difference is marginal and its not something youll buy every time you go shopping
parm-o-jon is cheap but the stuff from italy is expensive
idk about parm but I got a 200g wedge of boars head pecorino for $7.69, parms probably a couple bucks cheaper so close to your price i guess

Serious question: Do you guys not have local farms that accept cash?
I have a local farm that has a cash box on the honor system that has corn, carrots, potatoes, cabbage, peppers... everything. Just grab what you want and least some money. If you don't have this, you're in the wrong world.
Sorry, but I live near black people because I'm not a racist redneck hillbilly chud. Maybe some day you'll learn the error of your ways, Cletus.
Hamburger helper and taco stuff and no ground beef???
It doesn't look like that much to me. I don't know. I bought 200 bucks of groceries today and it seems like I got more than 4x that.
>buying hamburger helper
Not only is it more expensive than just making an equivalent from scratch, it tastes like a goddamn butt

How much milk and eggs are you buying? That's like 5gal of milk and 3x18 eggs even at Safeway without going for the generic brands.
>I can’t even buy milk and eggs for $50 anymore in California.
Show grocery bill.
>hamburger helper
>taco kits
homie just make the food.
Those are absolutely fine to have on hand.
That actually seems correct anywhere.
I'm guessing quite a bit of that was on sale, the turkey breast alone would be $10.
If you're trying to save money, why are you buying bougie bullshit like vegan wonton wrappers and PF Changs Gochujang sauce? Why are you buying bullshit like box meals? You could make that money go so much further if you bought more raw materials instead of bougie processed bullshit.
Could've probably saved $30 by not buying pre-packed ham and the PJ chang sauce, the taco kits and the hamburger helpers, the stir-fry noodles and the vegan tofu, or the blue cheese spread. Everything else seems like a good value.

What the frick kind of grocery haul is that? It's like if you put mark zuckerberg in front of a shopping cart and asked him to pretend to be a normal everyday poor buying groceries. How are fl*rida people even alive?
*Sigh* I will break it down
PF chang's sauce is non GMO/MSG unlike the other kinds, so you're paying for health
Cream cheese and begals is a healthy breakfast to jump start the day
Stir fry with quality noodles is good as Asians have shown being the healthiest longest living people
OM is the only reputable brand for meats as Perdue often cuts corners
Everything else looks fine as you don't want store brand things, those places cut corners unlike official brand name products with better quality control.
OP's picture is missing a few super foods like almonds and guac but I guess that's too expensive.
What's wrong with msg?
Nothing
>PF chang's sauce is non GMO/MSG unlike the other kinds, so you're paying for health
MSG isn't dangerous or unhealthy, neither are GMOs. But regardless these sauce bottles last forever so it's not bad to do
>Cream cheese and begals is a healthy breakfast to jump start the day
I'd prefer something with protein, but you're not really wrong here. Though you could probably skip the bagel in favor of bread, since it's cheaper per meal and low end grocery store bagels aren't particularly great flavor wise
>Stir fry with quality noodles is good as Asians have shown being the healthiest longest living people
Rice noodles, or any bulk noodle purchase would cost as much in store as those while providing you with more. Or just use rice
>OM is the only reputable brand for meats as Perdue often cuts corners
Neither of those brands are available to me, but deli meat is not what you go to if you want to save money. For the same cost, you could likely buy a larger section of something raw and roast it. Hell or even just get one of those rotisserie chicken loss leaders every grocery has and you'd still have more meat
>Everything else looks fine as you don't want store brand things, those places cut corners unlike official brand name products with better quality control.
You could replace the shredded carrot with an equal volume of whole carrots and save money - I bet that bag was like $3-5 but an equal amount of carrot you cut yourself would be $1 or less
Vegan wonton wraps when the person is clearly not vegan - why are you even buying wonton wraps you have no wonton ingredients
Replace laughing cow and preshredded parm for a block of chedder. I bet there's $5-10 saved there
Drop the taco kits for tortillas and a jar of seasoning. It'll cost the same (or maybe more) but the seasoning especially will last you months of food prep instead of being used up for a day of tacos
Swap the helper boxes with cheap pasta and use the above spices to save more money

Japanese people get these free groceries just for catching covid

if you gave the american equivalent to the average american they would throw half of it away
at best, they would not cook half of it because it's not their favorite dish
at worst, they would sell it for cash and use that cash to buy drugs
governmental social policy only works in small homogenous countries
If our governments were worth anything, they would have done something similar. It seems like a smart move to encourage people to self isolate. Call a magic telephone number, have a few bags of healthy food placed at your door step until you can reenter the world.
It would have been cheaper than Stimmy + PPP.
oh boy I sure love getting a bunch of shitty groceries and then being trapped at home over a fake virus.

Trump wanted to send people food but everyone got mad, so they just send money instead.
Americans were given money in exchange for losing work during lockdowns which they used to go out and buy groceries... so basically they were given money for nothing.

That's $25 at Aldi
I feel like Walmart is actually cheaper than Aldi if you stick to the generic brands. Aldi seems to have slightly better generic stuff, though.

You claifornicators already are already in the process of ruining Texas - just piss off already.
The economy is already fricked, red states neither want nor need you morons coming along and turning the cost of living into a nightmare like your home state.
It's already bad enough that blue counties hike taxes for their silly projects (mostly embezzling) - we don't want to fork over more money than we already have to at the store just so you asshats can put buttplugs in office who will happily spend tax dollars on a manufactured pond and not repaving the roads.
You people are the Plague, go to Canada.
$48.98 is the price you'd pay for this in my area if you went to the most expensive grocery store in town. Additionally, there are several items shown that are just poor value.
If you can't shop smart, don't complain about the price.
why does using a bagel (bread product) in order to make a sandwich (ingredients between bread) out of deli meat (typical ingredients in a sandwich) so outrageous? ive been making cold cut sandwiches with bagels my whole life and ive never even questioned that it might be unusual
I can't relate to these at all. I live in LA county (not actually LA though) and my weekly grocery bill is around $100. Last week it was $140 and that was because we got 2 cases of soda and a 40lb bag of dog food.

Surely it can't be hard or that expensive for farmers to grow watermelon.
It's out of season, which is the real reason the price is so absurd.
Our food prices are genuinely rising 10% per month though.
God help us.
I did a price check on these things at the nearest Kroger, total came out to 59.45 before tax and before coupons or reward program discounts. I bet I could get it down to about $48.98 with those, seems legit to me. I wouldn't buy 80% of this shit though.
Even when you know these are psyops to make you feel smart for living off eggs, leg quarters, and rice instead of poor it still works on me a little
