Daiko shared a detailed explanation of how he once got by spending just $15/week on food. This is a great real-life example of how it’s possible to eat well without breaking the bank. I’m posting it here so that more people will see it. Although I don’t do this now, I once lived on $15 a week for food in the early 1990s.
