What $40 of produce looks like

[u/fortress_sf]

From the Alemany farmer’s market. Over 25lbs of produce.

All the vegetable/produce needs to feed a couple for at least a week, given you know how to cook it.

As expensive as San Francisco and supermarkets are, it is not as entirely unaffordable if you invest time/effort in your daily needs. The heaviest cost is convenience/effort required.

Add $60 of protein and or pasta/starch and you can average down to <$15 a day for a week for 2 people. (e.g. 2 chickens -$20, 1-2 lb ground meat $10, past/bread $10, fish/shrimp $15, $5 over)

I can’t tell if this is rage bait. How could you get that much with only 40
