[QUOTE="AllStressedOut, post: 83909, member: 3837"] We go through a gallon of milk a day. The cheapest I can find whole milk for is $3.49 a gallon. We met a nutritionist who said whole milk is actually better for you, it has less added sugar. She also said frozen vegetables without preservatives are actually more nutritious than fresh. This is because they are picked at their best and frozen immediately. Fresh vegetables actually lose nutrients sitting on the shelf according to her. I've also heard that tomato paste and/or sauce in a can is actually more healthy than fresh tomatoes. Something to do with it being a more high concentration of lycopenes. We eat a bunch of pasta to keep our grocery bill down. Groceries run us about $300 every two weeks for 9 people. When we aren't so broke, we splurge and buy chicken and pork and it runs us another $100 in meat. We have tuna once a week, but it's canned, not fresh. We eat a lot of ground beef too. Ground turkey is actually WAY cheaper than ground beef at the local Walmart. I've debated on doing 1/2 and 1/2 for tacos and burgers. [/QUOTE]
