[quote=Anonymous]My husband informed me that we are currently spending 40k a year on food, drink, takeout and restaurants when all is said and done. Family of 5. Takeout is probably a big culprit - one night a week is pizza night and another 1-2 are usually Mexican, Chinese or Japanese. We don’t eat out in restaurants often. Barely get Starbucks. WFH and eat homemade food. Apart from takeout, how do you become more on top of food expenses and waste? What are some budget friendly meals that aren’t pasta every night? We don’t eat pork, shellfish, and rarely eat red meat. I do spend a lot on organic fruits and vegetables every week. But we don’t really waste that. Dh says there’s not really much to cut, apart from waste, because it averages out to 110 dollars a day for the family and that’s not so crazy. What are you spending on food monthly/annually for a family of 4-5?[/quote]
