I start with ground pork and then heavily season it from the spice rack.

Cost per person $2.10 This can be made for less. Skip the seasoning. Use Teflon cut pasta instead of brass cut. Use Hunts sauce instead of Aldi, which I did here. Normally I start with a can of crushed tomatoes and seasoning and simmer for at least 45 minutes.

    I don’t know that some of them are simple. I hardly expect a single parent to have the hours it takes to make sourdough bread. But no kneed bread is definitely doable and dirt cheap.

    I do see that people in other places I post are paying more attention to the costs. Though some people feel that I’m being completely unreasonable and classist by pointing out how cheap food can be if you have time or grow your own food.

    I think they expect a Facebook post to solve every problem instead of taking what they can and moving past the parts that don’t apply to them and their needs. It’s like being angry someone posted a recipe with milk and yelling at them because you’re lactose intolerant.

    People express trauma in weird ways.
