[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DH ate 4000 calories a day when we met in college. His grocery bills were outrageous. The vast majority of his food intake was[b] meat[/b], vegetables and [b]nuts[/b].

Side note- it's hard to eat healthy cheaply in America. We subsidize corn and sugar instead of vegetables.[/quote]

If he was mostly eating meat and nuts, then yes, the grocery bill will be insane. We're vegetarian, mostly vegan, and I find that it is pretty easy to eat healthy cheaply, so long as you do things like stay within season, buy dried beans in bulk, go to ethnic grocers, etc. The hard part is that if you don't know how to cook/meal plan using dried beans etc, then your costs will go up.[/quote]

You think dried beans will suffice for 6ft-6in 200+lb football players?   :lol:  :lol:  :lol:

We go through 2 gallons/week of milk for two skinny teen/pre-teen boys.  I could see that being 15 gal/week with 5 boys twice their size, plus assume that half the football team would hang out at their house, eating and drinking everything in sight.  [/quote]
