PSA: Groceries aren't expensive. Having everything PRE-made for you is. Get back to basics. Make food from scratch. It is CHEAPER, healthier, and better tasting.

You can tell this one hasn’t even started cooking for themselves. Their parents are definitely shielding this one from making their own food.

I've been cooking full meals since I was 10. And I have lived alone for a long time now. Sorry if you can't comprehend a young adult being motivated and self sufficient. Keep up your whining, I'll keep up my thriving.

You need ingredients.. ingredients cost money

by LeftInTheWoods · 0 hearts

Ingredients are cheaper than pre-made meals. That is my whole point.

by _Starfire_ · 1 heart

Not all ingredients are cheap. Not every meal requires the same ingredients. If you have a larger family to feed, you need at least double the ingredients. Besides, a lot of food now has hella gmo. People live paycheck to paycheck and often work a lot. I think you should encourage gardening and canning instead of judging people for buying what they can afford. Or better yet, start an organization that can provide food pantries. I think that would be way more helpful. Be the change you want to see in your community

I moved off grid and provide for myself. I do give my extra food away. I offer recipes.

Groceries are expensive. That’s a fact. But yes. Obviously pre prepared stuff is more expensive. Not everyone has time to cook also

by flourDough · 3 hearts

All groceries have gotten more expensive. It’s not just premade items.

I eat like a queen for $25 a week.

by flourDough · 2 hearts

Happy for you. Your $25 used to go further. You may not realize it because food isn’t a significant part of your budget.

Yeah, a 10lb bag of rice is a dollar more OH NO!!! A10lb bag of flour is .50 cents more however will I survive?!

by WanderInAwe96 · 2 hearts

Shopping local (as much as possible) is even cheaper. Sadly, not always feasible.

ingredients are not cheap

by ✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️ · 2 hearts

Idk why you're trying to pretend like the price of meat, Eggs, milk, etc hasn't also gone up. Ingredients are getting just as expensive as ready to heat meals.

Did this idiot really say “stop whining and become a farmer”? Lmaooo Trump was surgical with how he conned these people

by LeftInTheWoods · 0 hearts

Fuck Trump. And Biden. I'm not on either of your "sides". You don't need to be a fucking farmer to make your own food just not a lazy fucking retard.

by 🙄psyquack3000 · 2 hearts

the"both sides" argument is actually just more right wing bullshit. sorry, you're busted

by LeftInTheWoods · 0 hearts

Ok dude fuck you. STARVE. I was willing to give recipes and you're just a hateful stubborn asshole.

Some people dont have time

by AstridGoddess · 1 heart

Man when I get groceries I always start with fruits, veg, and then meat. I try to buy my meat in frozen bulk or on sale to save money and it always ends up being extremely expensive just for the basics.

by bbydllbugeatr🦇 · 1 heart

acting like a five dollar biggie bag isn't CHEAPER than produce 😭

by Foxy_Deoxys · 1 heart

Are you dense? Yes making your own meals is cheaper relatively speaking but that does not change the fact that groceries (the ingredients to make said meals) are still fucking expensive 😭

by Sunnygirl22 · 1 heart

It cost me more to make a loaf of bread then it dose to buy it. And I make bread regularly but the cost for the loaf vs how much it is to buy it sucks and that's on the cheaper end of the homemade stuff I made.

by ftm-4-bi-guys · 1 heart

but if you're making everything at home, you also have to consider the cost of time to prep and make the meal, and the cost of water to do the dishes afterwards

by orange_incandescence · 1 heart

Groceries are expensive kinda why you're advocating "make food from scratch"

by LeftInTheWoods · 0 hearts

Adapt and overcome. Not whine and starve.

by orange_incandescence · 1 heart

Yeah you're saying we should adapt to groceries getting more expensive under Trump

by LeftInTheWoods · 0 hearts

Dude. It doesn't matter what the cause is. The reality is survival regardless of politics.

I like how much hate you get for telling people to stop being lazy and entitled.

by LeftInTheWoods · 1 heart

Crazy isn't it?

by Ignatius · 1 heart

People get really mad when they are informed that most of their problems are results of their own decisions and not the fault some politician, businesses, or some demographic group they don't like.

Omg a man with a brain. You have restored my hope for humanity.

by LeftInTheWoods · 1 heart

Of COURSE a post that triggers whiners with no accountability goes viral. All I intended was to give advice and recipes but 90% of you just want to whine and blame others.

by Unknownqueen · 1 heart

I agree some things are cheaper and its also wayyy healthier but my grocery bill is same or higher thrn what pay for rent

by Miss mistake · 1 heart

And still fucking expensive.

by Spoopy NBi Goth · 1 heart

Groceries are expensive, as is the time to cook and do meal prep. It's not uncommon to have multiple jobs, which means you just don't have time to cook for yourself. There's a lot more that goes into it, and it's not so easy as "just make your own food"
