I’m not sure what you’re looking at... They’re selling USDA Choice strip steak for $18/lb. 2 pounds of steak before cooking isn’t lunch and dinner for two adults. A single bell pepper is $1.50. They’re charging $0.69 for a single damn potato. Broccoli is over $3/lb. These prices are insanely high. And I would assume some of the food you eat in a day is not going to be just bulk produce. |

potatoes, $0.79/lb (tired of making imgur links now)
eggplants, $1.69/lb
zucchini, $2/lb
roma tomatoes, $1.49/lb
long grain brown rice (rice freshly delivered from Whole Foods instead of from somewhere saner!), $1.20/lb
Of course if you only ever buy the most expensive items and don't fill out your meals, then yes it gets expensive. But not being price sensitive in any way when shopping is like the very definition of being upper class.

You know that a proper meal isn't _just_ steak, though, right? Brown rice, legumes, vegetables, 8oz meat, spices. 2 Steaks, 2 people, 2 meals.
