It can be expensive but it’s also pretty cheap.

I have some food allergies and cook everything from scratch at home so I know it can be cheap to cook yourself but there are some processed foods that are just cheap for the calories especially things on sale.

Other factors like limited transportation and space in a backpack or bag to carry home can make bulk savings harder.

Yeah you can eat rice and beans for cheap, but that’s not really a completely nutritious diet. I’ve eaten it a lot!
