Itsmee, Roy and I roughly spend 35 dollars a week in USA money. This  amount includes food and toiletries.  We do not buy steaks, snack foods, or anything which calls for lots of ingredients such as homemade Lasagna/Lasagne, Beef Stroganoff, Enchiladas etc.

Gee,I spend more than the members above me here on this question. BUT, the government sees to it that I get to spend a whopping $16 a month in food stamps and that is supposed to be enough. I do not eat out unless I get a $5 windfall……….

Sandy and I gnaw our way through $15.00 a day(USA$) on average for food.The cost of living here  in our own home, and eeking along on everything makes our $1700.00 per month vanishes three to five days before the next pay-all-you-got expires. Sounds like we would do better if I send you money for food to be shipped to me and you keep the difference.
