Ive never seen a bean mix before. How does it compare in price by weight to individual beans?
Dried chickpeas are super cheap here and rice. Potatoes are down to about 60p per kilo now.
White cabbage is a much nicer ingredient than people give it credit it for, I sweat it down with onions and carrots and use it to bulk out beef mince. You can use some legumes and make decent soup with it too.

Somewhere along the line, having more than one bean became some kind of culinary meme. I wish I could google it, but all I get are chili recipes.
Maybe I could see how using two very different kind of beans like black beans and navy beans would create a different taste. But why would you do that when using navy beans would be superior?
Just one of those things not even worth thinking about. I tried to google it but all I got were chili recipes and endless blog posts about the "debate" of whether beans go in chili.

Mixing different beans gives a little bit of variety in color and texture to your sloppa. That said, beans of wildly different sizes (like lentils and butter beans) don't go together since the small beans will turn to mush before the large beans are cooked.

I buy a whole chicken, cut out the breasts and freeze, roast the rest with cheap vegetables. that makes two meals (whole leg + wing + skin etc). then I make the rest into soup add a can of creamed corn, etc. that's another 2 meals when eaten with bread. then with the breasts I defrost them and make a big batch of fried rice that's another 2-3 meals.

then for breakfast if I just make a smoothie, or oatmeal or toast or eggs or something, and lunch is ramens with egg, sardines, crackers etc and the dinner is one of the chicken meals, then it's like 5 days of food really cheap.

The simplest possible "curry powder" that still tastes pretty good is probably equal parts ground cumin and coriander.

A tablespoon of each plus a pound of red lentils, 2 onions, a bunch of garlic cloves, some ginger and a 14 oz can of tomatoes makes for 6-8 servings worth of fairly decent curry. Add water to cover and cook for ~30 minutes until the lentils get all mushy, then add salt and lemon/lime juice to taste. You can fry some more garlic in butter and dump it in near the end for some extra flavor.

Anon, maybe you aren't on your feet all day, because I can tell you that if you're walking/running around 8-10 hours all day doing physical labor, your shoes won't last more than 1-1.5 years without wearing out.
Just correcting you here because you're way overstating the durability of shoes-- that's about the price I pay for mine and they get used pretty quickly.


Now, as for your second statement about 150.00 not being much.
That may not hard for you or me to scrape up, but there is a SHIT TON of people living paycheck to paycheck in this country. When you barely have enough money to pay your price gouging landlord who's hiked the rent for the 4th time in the past 2 years, you have the choice of paying your rent or buying proper shoes, and the rent's going to win out.
But you STILL need shoes, so you have to buy something in order to work, so you go for the shit tier shoes to just get by. Which then wear out quickly.
People at the low end are desperately running on a money treadmill, and they don't have enough spare money to actually save with investments.

[Anonymous No.19144652]

>>19144560
It's not easy, definitely. But if they can manage to scrape by and gouge out some savings, then almost anyone can afford some decent pieces.
By cutting out restaurants or junk food or some entertainment money outside the house, they could pretty easily scrape together, say, $300 a year. As long as they take very good care of what they buy, it should last for a very long time once they get it if it's decent quality.

Just look at whatever's on sale and plan around that. Typically the cheapest stuff will be pork shoulder, bone-in ham and whole chicken. If you want cheap beef you're at the mercy of the sales but recently I've got ground beef as low as $2/lb and t-bone steaks $5/lb. Ground beef will typically be $4/lb on sale, though.

Unless you live somewhere like eastern europe there are no cheap meats anymore. Fucking hipsters have inflated the costs of cheap meat cuts.

There are only sales. Buy a fucking freezer, and get a car if you don't have one. It helps.
Then stock up on meat when it's on sale.

Make big pots of things, portion them into containers that hold about 2 or 3 days worth of food(depending how long you can eat the same shit over and over) then freeze them. Stretch things with bread, rice and pasta. Make bread or dinner rolls and freeze them. Cornbread is quick and simple. Frozen vegetables are about $1/lb. Onions, garlic, celery and potatoes are all you really need to buy fresh if you're trying to save money. Chicken can be found for $2/lb. You'll want to figure out a half dozen or so chicken recipes so you won't get bored. Bacon is $5/lb and a couple slices will flavor a whole pot of beans, lentils or split peas. Plan your meals. Roast a chicken and have roasted chicken with rice and veg for dinner. The next day make a stock and use the remaining meat to make chicken soup, or chicken and yellow rice. Have leftover chicken soup? Add some roux and cream, reduce and make chicken pot pie. Learn to use spices and some simple pan sauces, too. Picrel was a simple sauce made by deglazing the pan the cooked the chicken in with a little milk and cornstarch. About a $1.25 dinner.

You eat chips? Not anymore, now you pop popcorn on the stove top.
You drink soda? Not anymore, now you make iced tea or coffee. Now you drink Kool aid, bitch. You're poor, remember?
Sweet tooth? Good thing bread or rice pudding is delicious and basically free. Make a chess pie, you poor bitch.

Lastly only buy meats on sale, and only buy in bulk. Dry goods should also be purchased in bulk. A 50lb bag of rice is about the same price as 25lbs of rice purchased in a grocery store

Better than soylent, I guess. Why do you use peanuts instead of peanut butter? Might I suggest buying some bananas, peel and cut them in half, then freeze them in a ziploc or tupperware. Make your shake as usual, but add a half frozen banana before blending. It's delicious.

Yes, they have somehow become even drier than normal, unexpired, fully dried beans. They are drier still. And the drier the beans (lets not forget these medleys use older and therefore DRIER beans), the longer the cooktime. The more moisture (water) that needs to be restored, and the more gas or electricity spent in heating that liquid. You actually LOSE money cooking those extra dry beans because the water bills (extra water for drier beans) and stove bills (longer cooktime to force so much more water, also not free, into the extra dry beans) will far outweigh any potential savings. Just buy regular dried beans because they are less old and therefore less dry and therefore requiring less water and energy to cook them.

Dry beans are a staple,
A food that's hard to topple.
They're versatile and nutritious,
And they're always delicious.

You can cook them up in a stew,
Or make them into a tasty fondue.
You can add them to your salad,
Or make them into a dip that's valid.

They come in all shapes and sizes,
And they're always full of surprises.
So if you're looking for a meal that's hearty,
Just grab some dry beans and get started.

I have no idea how you handle dried beans, only ever had them from a can

buy the cheapest chicken you can
buy potatoes carrots onion, frosen corn (or canned if cheaper)
roast the chicken with the vegetables
make a stock
add corn to stock
eat with bread

2 whole chickens a week will be enough for dinner meals (roast + soups)
breakfast and lunch is bread, eggs, oats, muesli, ramen, yoghurt

easy. it's like 50 dollars a week
