food cost-wise we're in the same range. I do take my vitamins and drink my glycerna shakes (factored into my $8 or so per day) as I don't eat meat (ethical reasons) or grains (can't eat wheat, don't like the rest) and have nowhere near a semblance of a balanced diet otherwise. I try to drink one a day but usually fail at that, they are very rich
don't keep a lot in my fridge or cupboards. the social exchange of buying something warmed by the sun gives me an appetite. the fridge is mostly for nailpolish, condoms and (tap) ice water
what I def don't do is spend half a food budget on gas station booze and shitty prepackaged wilted lettuce and stale bread and then complain about rising food costs
you have to admit it's a lot easier for us outside NA folks though. I'm guessing no one sells mangoes on Huggles' stretch of highway that stands in as replacement for actual street life
JA fits me, outside the city fresh food is so plentiful I can revert back to my preference for eating really small portions every few hours without looking strange. like, I'm hungry, I get a fresh lime water. then later, buy an otaheite apple, etc throughout the day
as to my cigs...
