27. Lettuce can be cheap, and there can be picked greens...

in the salad. Missed if they said anyuthing about that in the article.

Cornmeal, flour, milk, eggs, shortening... all those could be considered staples grabbed from the pantry and thus really cheap.

I notice that not only are some of the kids really young, nobody gets a lot to eat at their place.

Yeah, if you gotta do what you gotta do, you can feed everyone for around a buck a meal, although most people won't deal with the effort or the sacrifice.

I know I make a lot of meals for under a buck when I hit the freezer and pantry for stuff I bought on sale or in bulk, but those aren't exotic, or even interesting, by any means.
