To all the EBT niggers ITT:
The USA is the cheapest country in the world, and you can easily feed yourself here for about $25 a month.


I just finished such a $25 month. I have to say- not once was I hungry. Actually, sometimes I was too full.


Now, I don’t count drinks as food, obviously- eating is eating and drinking is drinking- and I spent about $50 just on Coke (2 liters a day, sometimes another liter at night).


So, let’s get to the $25 meal plan.
To survive a month for $25 you need:

  • 1 kg rice- about $0.75
  • 1 kg pasta- about $0.60
  • 1 kg barley - about $0.50
  • 6 kg potatoes- about $2
  • 2 kg margarine- about $1.25
  • 150 bread rolls- about $12.50
  • 10 boxes of Cocoa Crunchies- about $5
  • 15 packets of sauce mix, $0.12 each- about $1.75, or a few ready-made sauces for around $0.75 each

Total: about $25.
I even had $1.75 left from that twenty-five. Not bad.


How do we eat?
In the morning, cook up a pot of sauce- that’ll last you two days.


Week 1 – pasta. 5 rolls a day, half a box of Cocoa Crunchies.
Week 2 – rice. 5 rolls a day, half a box of Cocoa Crunchies.
Week 3 – barley. 5 rolls a day, half a box of Cocoa Crunchies.
Week 4 – potatoes, 5 rolls, half a box of Cocoa Crunchies.


Instead of Cocoa Crunchies you can buy chocolate spread- 400 g for $0.65- or off-brand chocolate puffs, about $0.30–$0.50 for 300 g.


So the meal plan is tested and very filling- I even had some rice and barley left, because a kilo per week is honestly more than enough.


The only things I missed were yogurt, cheese, and fish.
But I could easily repeat such a month- and I’m saying this as someone who loves to eat, stuff themselves, even overeat.


One George Washington, and you’re fed for the whole month.
The veggies are in the sauce, and the vitamins are in the Crunchies- all the vitamins and minerals that you need.

those prices are wildly optimistic

I’ve been neurotically checking my ammo order or to see if it shipped yet and it’s still on label created. I keep a baseline amongst of ammo as an emergency. With all the videos of nogs announcing they’re going to rob and loot I don’t want to be caught lacking for a second. Worrying about food riots during Covid was a lot easier when I just single. Now it’s like “Fuck what if she and the baby go to the grocery store and I’m not there” or “What if I’m at work and they decide to go door to door in groups”.

Oh man you fucked up so badly.
You're just handing them your family on a platter. They are going to give your wife and baby cornrows.

RIP. I'll try to remember you once in a while

One thing I think needs to be done with EBT is making it stricter on what people can buy on it.

It really shouldn't cover things like soda and candy and should cover mostly nutritional foods.

Interestingly, at the store the other day I saw they had a 10% discount on Bananas for EBTers. Not sure how often that happens, but that'd be a start, though the challenge is convincing people to eat the damn stuff that's good for you, especially watermelons.
No that wasn't an attempted dig at darkies. It's really fuckin' tasty. Top-tier friut next to tangerines and honeydew imo

Subhuman, but I respect the thrift. Prices seem a tad unrealistic though.

It has become very profitable to lobby to gain access to EBT and now it is basically free game on what it can be used on.

Many states will let "homeless" people use EBT on restaurant/fast food meals and hot store meals. The idea is they can't cook. But it's pretty easy to claim you're homeless.

[I think the actual standard is "doesn't have access to a kitchen, so single room shelters qualify]
 
Q: Why not make EBT simple monetary welfare? Some European countries handle it well -- you search for a job, you are given enough of a tugboat, if you're completely fucked, you will be given emergency money but you're forfeiting banking privacy, and the government is actually watching what you're buying. Best of both worlds, no?

Its time your kind suffers, preferably kneels in front of a mass grave and gets the bludgeon

They do that up in leafland and most welfare bums blow their check on booze and or drugs fairly quickly. You might as well just give your tax dollars directly to the fent, crack and meth dealers.

Amazon food service is a crap shoot for me. Sometimes I can order frozen or fresh from them and sometimes I can't. It's strange!

Avoid fresh produce and meats. Canned goods and grains in my experience hold up alot better with less room for error . Also you can get big ass bulk cheese to divide and wax / freeze.

You might be getting 1/5 a day from the sauce IF it’s a good quality one with >80g veg per portion. Remember a portion is 80 grams.

The cereal is fortified but not with everything, and only a certain percentage of your RDA of each nutrient per portion.

There is also a lack of quality protein.

You can fix this cheaply by buying a sack of dried beans or whole lentils, and sprouting them which drastically increases most nutrients and makes others like zinc and calcium more bioavailable. It would also count as one of your five a day.

You could get several kilo buckets of peanut butter, which is very high in protein, calories and healthy fats, and will be a nice addition to your plain rolls.

I don’t know where you live but if you have access to the countryside and aren’t in the arctic, at this time of year you can forage for wild fruits and nuts, and also salad leaves. (Or mushrooms once you become knowledgable, but don’t risk this). You could improve your nutrition and variety immensely for free.

Finally consider buying dried fruit in bulk, they are cheap and very high in certain nutrients that you’ll currently be missing.

Your entire diet is carbs and Coke. You are eating breakfast cereal with a single insufficient source of protein (barley lacks a ridiculous amount of amino acids among other things) and virtually no vitamins. I would punch a pink triangle to your forehead for such stupid "advice." Even an EBT nigger eats better than you.
