Food Budget

One would presume so. Makes little or no difference to us.

Tonight's meal:

Boeuf Bourguignonne variation

Beef: $3-4ish (hard to say -from freezer, part of larger purchase but we usually freeze in approx $3 portions. this one looked on the larger side, I never pay more than $3/lb becasue there's always a BOGOF or similar sale on some cut or other, so I stock up) Onion 25c bacon 50c mushrooms 75c, stock cubes and flour negligable, let's say 25c. half glass of wine, 50c spaghetti $1, Asparagus $1 butter for asparagus 20c.

total cost approx $8 for a nice meal for 5. This is probably towards the expensive end of our range.
