$320USD/mo. for healthy, organic food for one person. It could be less, maybe 75% of that. I’ve been considering making changes, but I like what I like.
I’m going grocery shopping today, in a couple of hours, as it happens. I shop once per week.
It’s about the cheese - for example Boar’s Head is $12/lb (baby swiss) to $14/lb (imported Swiss or Grueyere) and that’s worth eating ramen to subsidize. :) We can’t be eating any of that basic cheese oh no no no…
BH cheeses != meats. They don’t own the cheese factories, they partner with established cheesemakers in a partner network.[1] (no comment on meats, I don’t eat them)
[1] one of them was in the news recently for a recall so it’s not all roses in the cheese world either :(

I can’t believe that anyone would be buying Boar’s Head products after reading about their systemically filthy processing plants https://arstechnica.com/health/2025/09/repeat-creepy-meat-problems-at-boars-head-plants-draw-congressional-scrutiny/
