Yea, that's not a terrible idea, the hardest part of cooking is actually working out what to make all the time and not descending into cooking the same three things over and over.

Space Gopher posted:It's pretty high compared to Seattle. What does quote ethnic quote mean? I'm sure it varies by region, but dinner for two under $80 means you're going to be eating something you could probably cook better, healthier, and cheaper at home. Always fun to hire people to do all the cooking and cleaning for you, though. Speaking of Trendy Restaurant Lists, landing your restaurant on one of those is... BWM?! https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.thrillist.com/amphtml/eat/portland/stanichs-closed-will-it-reopen-burger-quest

GoGoGadgetChris posted:What does quote ethnic quote mean? That refers to the styles that have been systematically devalued in America so much so that the market price for an ethnic meal is noticeably cheaper than market price for a white meal — Mexican and Asian (as a category of multiple cuisines) are the big examples. https://awolau.org/1799/print/culture/race-in-the-kitchen-the-devaluation-of-ethnic-food/

Ooo solid point. One of the most delicious restaurants in Portland is a ramen house with $17 bowls, and the top reviews are all 1star because "ramen packets are $0.25, this is criminal"

Droo posted:I've seen people talk about sites that give you an entire week's shopping list and meal plan for like $10/month, it sounds like it aggregates the shopping list so you just go buy what it says all at once and then make the meals. I would pay an extra $5/month for someone to also run the list against prices at all the grocery stores around me and optimize pricing. That's the worst part of grocery shopping.

Don't even think about dessert lest you break $80 and be accused of being an ethnic food avoiding bougie

That's the worst part of grocery shopping. I’m of the opinion that going to three different grocery store to save a few bucks is not worth my time, but the GF disagrees. We do a Costco run every other week and a regular grocery store the week we don’t do Costco and it works ok. BWM: buying fresh stuff for only two people at Costco.

Good thing every deposit agreement allows the bank to exit your rear end for not answering questions. Online accounts are effectively zero tolerance too, I say the word and the card's shut off, the account is put into a hold status, and they drop a 10-day closure letter in the mail. You're more than welcome to go to wells fargo, they don't give a poo poo.

Unless you're always getting alcohol with your meals in which case yeah that's gonna skew your perception of what a "meal" costs Do those $40 boxes include a small bottle of wine or something?
