$400 for a week's worth of food. For one person? My wife and I eat well, we eat non-processed, fruits, vegetables, eggs (couple dozen a week, I have 3 a day with spinach), I eat lots of meat--beef, chicken, and also lean pork chops. The diet we have is not cheap, not easy. We make meal prep for most of the week on Sundays.
Having said all that, and to underline we don't eat out, nothing garbage for the body (or at least we minimize it); and it's $125-150/week at grocery, $200 at costco/sams (my vice is a low-cal energy drink, 2x a day sometimes, hers is coffee), we get those 5 dozen eggs there, Kodiak pancake mix, which she makes muffins with bananas and blueberries.
We spend $350-400 for two people, and we eat a bunch. WTF is tucker getting for himself for the same cost? My point is that he's probably only getting about $150 worth. Still more expensive than Russia, but not that much more.
That includes his crew, however many people that is.
Tucker said in the first part of the video, what an American family of 4 would eat in a week. That's why he went for the boxed cereal, I believe.
Oh, I totally missed that. I thought he said for one person.
