Brought up somewhere else was the price of oil for cooking ...... MADNESS!
You get all this stuff thrown in your face to live healthy to go with organic & so on well that just gets worse £$! We did a dietting plan once did a shop and came out with a couple of bags with a big £$ total at the end of our receipt!
None of it is realistic! |
I try to buy veggies/fruit from farm shops and street markets. I can get 4 mangoes for a £1 and stuff like that. I do not use oil for cooking most of the time, just water. I try to make as much stuff as I can using dried beans, veggies, etc. But, the price of food is just outrageous and since we have been making everything from scratch, we find it is a bit cheaper. But still, one has to buy the basic stuff!
