[quote=Anonymous]Family of 4. When now college DS was living with us, the monthly food bill was probably around 1.5K a month. Now with 2 adults and 1 teen, it's closer to $1K, I haven't tallied precisely. We shop at Whole Foods, H-Mart/Lotte, Trader Joe's, Fresh for specific sales, and rarely get take-out or lunch out. I know where we should cut back: processed meals and salty/sugary snacks that my husband keeps buying at Trader Joe's and Fresh. Drives me nuts. It's bad for his health (and our daughter's) and expensive for what it is. Restaurant food isn't great either, but we get it rarely. I buy unprocessed foods at Whole Foods, and the quality entirely justifies the price. We get our Asian fruits at Korean supermarkets, with a few Asian condiments, but I'm very careful about ingredients - I look for ones without a long list of rubbish. [/quote]
