I have 13 dollars and 40 cents to last me the next two weeks. I need some help with a meal plan, ceekay.

6 dollar bag of rice and 7 dollar bag of beans
$0.40 leftover to give as alms to one less fortunate than you.

Go to dollar tree and purchase 4 loaves of bread and 4 packs of bologna. That’s enough food right there to last you for 2 weeks

And worry about food tomorrow.

>>20920121
This isnt a good idea. You need something fresh in your diet. Something as simple as some raw garlic, raw onion, some fresh herbs, a cucumber. Anything that is "fresh". Just rice and bean, if you dont die from scurvy, youd want to kys very quickly.

Nah he'll be fine. He needs calories right now.
>>
>>20920177
He can go forage some herbs or fruits in the wild. Or find some discounted items at supermarket.
>>
>>20920121
>>20920144

bag of rice is cheaper than $6 I think. beans are probably @ $6. I say rice might be $3.

leaves $4 for meat.
>>
>>20920175
That'll encourage him to budget for better food next paycheck
Right now simply getting calories in is what matters
>>
>>20920121
Fpbp
Anything super cheap as it sounds you won't be used to fasting yest. Rice and beans is your best bet. For a few weeks it's fine, time to look forward though

Im not saying he should spend 10$ on garlic and cucumber. But he needs something fresh like that in his diet. Even just for 2 weeks, with 0 fresh food would be very bad, health wise. Even mres give you vitamin c tablets or dried fruits. And they still constipate the fuck out of you.

I did this once. Luckily my local grocery store had Oscar Mayer hotdogs on sell for $1 a pack. I bought like 8 packs of hotdogs and and as many .99 packs of buns as I could afford. I had hot dogs for breakfast lunch and dinner for like 8 days straight.

>t. Also a degenerate gambler

You SHOULD go your entire life without meat and you'll be more than fine
>>
>>20920243
Heavy gambling problem is worse for his health
An optimal heavy diet isn't the concern right now dude, it's about making sure he can eat for 2 weeks on 13 dollars
He can have some fresh food when he can afford it
>>
>>20920117
I bet you already gambled it all away. Go to your local food bank, OP.
>>
>>20920117
Time to parlay that $13 champ
>>
>>20920254
Maybe. But i dont want to turn this into another vegan vs non vegan thread.
But our ancestors regularly go long period of time with no meat, simply because they couldnt afford it, and they survived.
>>
>>20920262
Like i said, he can go forage some wild fruits if he wants to save as much money as possible. But he needs to be aware of his bodys needs for fresh foods. If he ignores his bodys signals and just eat rice and bean and nothing else, hed likely off himself from depression.
>>
>>20920228
> hed starve
By my calculation he'd have to eat four cups of cooked rice daily to get through that whole bag in 14 days. Most people couldn't eat that much rice. They would explode
>>
>>20920271
My guy if his addiction hasn't made him an hero yet I think 2 weeks won't either
What he needs is calories, that's all
>>
>>20920275
No way a 2.5kg bag of rice can last someone for 2 weeks when rice is a huge component of the diet. I would know. Im asian.
>>
>>20920252
No way to know this
>>
>>20920117
Bouillon cubes, Frozen bag of Tortellini (Kroger has a bag thats 17 cents an ounce). Can improve on this with a mushroom and onion for the broth but that costs money.
>>
>>20920280
>What he needs is calories, that's all
No sorrie thats not all. If calories was all that matters, mres would be nothing but rice and bean also.

Big bag of potatoes and a gallon of milk.
One time my mom fed the family for a month in the 70s by buying a 100lb bag of potatoes for 10 bux.
>>
>>20920294
He's not in the military and he's not getting mre's for free
Literally all he needs is to stretch 13 dollars out for 2 weeks, whatever keeps him full that long on that budget is what he's eating
>>
>>20920314
Its not a question of money anymore since ive already said he can go find some fruits and herbs in the wild. Its a question of the bodys needs for nutrients, it is not just about calories.
>>
>>20920325
What he needs is more than 13 dollars for a good diet
But he doesn't have that. So he's gonna have to make do and buy filling foods to last him 2 weeks. It is 100% completely about the money. That is the point of the thread: how to make 13 dollars last until his next paycheck
>>
>>20920327
You are just trying to force the issue to be about money when the food i suggest he finds in the wild costs 0$. It is because you have ran out of arguments. You cant argue that it is not just about calories anymore.
>>
>>20920325
Anon you're not gonna fucking die if you don't scavenge for herbs and spices for two weeks. You'll be fine on any one hit wonder like potatoes, beans, rice etc.
Christ people are starting to get scurvy in leafland from the poverty, I should know.
>>
>>20920336
I'm not forcing anything, OP said he only has 13.40 for food, how can he make that last
The solution is super cheap and filling staples
Anything else can be bought after he has money again
>>
>>20920340
He probably wont die but it will be very painful for him healthwise. Both physically and mentally.

>but I don't like rice or beans
Ok fat, how about an ALL PIZZA option
You could make a 10inch pizza each day using:
150g flour
Yeast, Salt
1 Tbsp tomato paste
1 sliced hotdog
Handful of shredded mozz

By my calculation this ghetto hotdog pizza would cost 82 cents to make with these ingredients. You could also pick up some italian seasoning for an extra dollar and this would help tremendously
>>
>>20920341
>bought
Again, forcing the issue to be about something else just so you dont have to admit you are wrong.
>>
>>20920344
How fucking soft would you have to be to be damaged by eating beans and potatoes for two weeks you retard?
Better yet keep the 13:50 and just go dumpster dive the bakery after closing time.
>>
>>20920349
It's in the OP.
>>
>>20920352
>being aware of the bodys needs for nutrients is "soft"
How soft are you that you would rather dive into a dumpster than go look for foods in the wild?
>>
>>20920353
You can just walk away from an arguments if you are not man enough to admit you were wrong. This forum is anonymous.
>>
>>20920359
You could read the op next time you read a thread
>>
>>20920361
Did op say he is bed ridden or in a wheelchair and cant walk outside? No, all he said was to help him. I am helping him by telling him what his body needs.
>>
>>20920366
What he needs is to make a razor thin budget last for 2 weeks. An optimal diet is not the priority. Having enough calories to last 2 weeks is.
>>
>>20920357
I hope you fucking die when you eat a bunch of destroying angels and poison berries in the wild you dipshit.
It would probably cost more than 13:50 for op to leave town to go die trying to survive in the forest without any knowledge.
>>
>>20920117
>I have 13 dollars and 40 cents to last me the next two weeks
Put it all on black a few times and then eat like a king
>>
>>20920369
how is rice and bean and garlic and onion "optimal"?
>>20920370
>survive in the forest
If his neighbors had some fruit trees in their garden, and if op asked nicely, theyd probably give him cupsful of them.
The choice isnt "go live in the woods" or "dive in a dumpster". Maybe if you had more nutrients in your diet, youd be a little smarter and be able to firgure these things out yourself.
>>
>>20920386
You've wasted money on 2 luxury items that don't have the calories to justify it. Neither an onion nor garlic will provide 3 filling meals for 2 weeks.
>>
>>20920395
You are simply arguing in bad faith. I have given multiple examples of how op can find fresh foods for 0 money.
You are simply unable to say "you are right and i am wrong". Its very pathetic.
>>
>>20920325
I live in fucking newark fat chance i'll be foraging for berries and nuts like im lewis and clark or something
>>
>>20920405
Prove that you are op and not just a fucking larper
>>
>>20920404
You neglected to read the op.
13.40 to buy 2 weeks worth of food is very tight. OP needs to be full for 2 weeks, not to worry about being healthy.
He can take care of his bodily needs when he has the money to spend on it.
>>
>>20920410
Yeah im not gonna go in a circle with you.
0 money. Either argue the point or fuck off.
>>
>>20920412
The point was in the OP:
>I have 13 dollars and 40 cents to last me the next two weeks. I need some help with a meal plan, ceekay
Wasting time, energy and money on frivolous luxuries runs counter to what he needs: making his razor thin budget last. Rice and beans will keep him full for 2 weeks. An onion and garlic will not.
>>
>>20920117
six $2 scratchers and a arizona tea should keep you pretty full.
>>
>>20920425
>finding food for survival is waste of time and energy
>>
>>20920441
Yes. To survive on that budget for 2 weeks, he just needs rice and beans. I suspect he will not find those in his nearest forest.

Onions help a lot with nutrition (vitamin C) plus they would make this slop taste a lot better.
Rice and beans with hotdogs and onions, hot sauce for flavour. You could eat a couple bowls of this daily for 2 weeks and be totally fine
Would it suck? Well yes

Savenging is just doing what the other anon said and playing lotto while possibly finding no yield, and while wasting more precious calories. Better to just do what they said and put the change after food towards a ticket or 2.

Why do people always recommend rice to starvefags
AP Flour has more calories per dollar
>>
>>20923576
You're right, but many people here are lazy. AP flour is actually amazing, but you need to spend some time and have a bit of imagination to turn it into something amazing.
I was in a situation like that once - no money, but 3 kg of various flours, spices and oil. Used to mix the flours with water, salt and spices until I got the consistency right and poured it on heated oil. Turned it from one side to another in order to obtain sorta flour cutlets. They were insanely tasty and filling for such a poverty food. And, no doubt, they had more protein, micro and macroelements than fucking white rice.
But like I said - while flour is many times better, you need to actually not be lazy.

You revealed the answer yourself- you used spices and oil to make it edible. 13.40 doesn't leave much room for those.

I'm kinda fucked. Was living paycheck to paycheck and lost my job at the start of the month. I tried to apply anywhere but fast food, caved last Thursday. I had an interview on Saturday at a McDonalds where they said I got the job, but I haven't heard back from them yet.

I have like 5 bucks and food enough for maybe 2 more days. I applied for food stamps over 2 weeks ago, got all my paperwork in but still haven't got them turned on yet.

I'm gonna end up in a shelter by the end of the month even if I started work tomorrow. Gonna be a cold winter.

go to food bank

supermarkets have reduced food thats about to expire, buy whatever is fresh and cook it

buy flour and make bread, buy eggs and you can make pasta or noodles

flour, oats eggs milk and vegetables should be your priority, eat porridge for breakfast or a snack and eat eggs and vegetables and pasta, pasta aglia e olio is really good

buy stock cubes and make a big stew with potatoes vegetables, use flour and milk and eggs to make dumplings
>>
>>20920117
Condoms and KY.
Pimp your ass out my man.
>>
once you buy staples like eggs milk flour and veg buy some coffee or strong tea. it's an appetite suppressant, brew it for a long time and make it strong. scavenge condiments and sugar from coffee shops and mcdonalds to boost the calories. look into foraging too, it will depend on the area you're in but this time of year there's lots of berries. look out for edible mushrooms too, but make sure you know exactly what you're doing, and eat a very small amount first to make sure it's fine. stinging nettles are edible as well as blackberries and aren't hard to identify. you can eat nuts from beech, hazel, chestnut and walnut trees, they're pretty easy to identify from the leaves. chestnuts are really tasty and will boost your energy. if you do it right foraging will pay massive dividends
>>
>>20928550
last thing i'll say is water, drink plenty of it. because you really don't actually need a ton of food to stay alive, just drink as much water as you want, maybe even look into intermittent fasting, fast for a day or many many hours in a day and you can stretch the food even further. drinking water will help with hunger pangs but honestly once you've been feeling hungry for an hour or so you kinda just get over it.
