Economies of scale make me think it would be much easier for multiple people than it is for just one. $150 is enough (even without a garden, maybe) to cover purchases of large bags of flour, oats, or rice each month, as well as a greater variety of protein foods. <br /><br />Obviously a garden makes things go farther, but basic food for 5 (even without those tasty spices) is just naturally less expensive than food for 1.j.https://www.blogger.com/profile/05488121165040555447noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7148735542162027173.post-9878614962999984642010-11-02T18:42:45.583-04:002010-11-02T18:42:45.583-04:00Just found your blog.

I think I could do it, but only if I got to spend a couple hundred dollars on seasonings and basic baking supplies (flour, sugar, cinnamon, etc). As long as I had those items on hand, I would be able to make the oatmeal taste fabulous, as well as the beans and other low-cost foods.<br /><br />Thanks for the interesting concept idea! Makes me wonder how well I could feed our family of five on $150/month (a dollar a day per person, per month). If I got my garden going, and canned all the food, I think it would be possible!Patricialynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16656235987162214880noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7148735542162027173.post-40988681869281445752010-11-02T01:01:09.015-04:002010-11-02T01:01:09.015-04:00I hear it's shorter in finnish- something abou...I hear it's shorter in finnish- something about compound words... or maybe that'd be *longer*, then.... like a metric ton being heavier than a nice, heavy 'merkin one...<br /><br />Um...
