Spent $200 on ingredients for lasagna and maybe a couple of other items and sparkling water…like how the fukk is lasagna costing over $100 for ingredients! (I will say I wasn’t using cheap shyt)

:gucci: Why?

For $200 You could have just went to a nice Italian restaurant and had money left over even if you ordered a glass of wine or two.

i'm the type to just throw it in the bag, but if i have time i'll look for sales. like i recently got some green beans 4 cans for $5. last month the sprite zero was like half off a 12 pack, etc. i got like 5 of those lol (they are usually like $8!)

You're the type to die at 45 with that diet

As I figured, absolute bullshyt. Just priced this recipe out from smiths (Kroger) and it’s 43 dollars, and that’s with you ending up with extra half pound of each of the beef and sausage. A whole 3.50 per serving, with extra proteins


Always with the hyperbole. If you actually cook, meal plan, and shop accordingly you can get by just fine. If somehow you spent 200 bucks on lasagna shyt and water, that’s a you problem

I don't know now:patrice:.

As someone that meal preps, groceries ain't that high for me. I bought a whole chicken (Air freezed. no fillers. non gmo) for $11. Smoked it, served with rice and green beans. $20 meal for 4 people.

Purdue got these thin sliced chicken breast, $4 a pack. 3 packs can feed 5. Ground beef ain't bad. Hell you can buy a whole turkey and eat off it for 2 days.

2 containers of burrata - $12 apiece
2 containers of ricotta - $8 apiece
parmesan reggiano - $8
mozzarella - $7
1 lb ground turkey - $8
1lb turkery Italian sausage - $11
fresh lasagna sheets - $18
thats $92 right there

plus had to buy crushed tomatoes, tomato sauce, tomato paste, mushroom, spinach, onion, garlic, parsley, basil, some items to make salad

I easily hit $120-130 for the lasagna and salad

bought a pie for dessert, whipping cream, yogurt, sparkling water and eggs and that’s where I got to $200

like I said, I wasn’t using cheap shyt, clearly I could’ve made the average American lasagna with hard packaged noodles, jarred sauce, low quality turkey, and cheap cheese and come out around $50-60

Has lasagna ever been cheap? What was you paying back in say 2010?

If that lasagna lasts 2 days and 4 people eat off it, that's $15 per person. Don't sound bad to me.

I just spent $200 on what I thought should have been a week’s worth of groceries and the shopping cart might as well have been an accessory like how these chicks walk around with them big ass handbags just for their ID and car keys.

How are people surviving out here with these prices :wtf: I swear it wasn’t this bad about a month ago..



everything is half the size and twice the price.. it’s just straight up robbery.

I still feel violated.. I might have file a police report and press charges against Walmart at this point.
