Can you survive on a budget of $35/week for food? Absolutely. It only costs like $.25 per day to feed those starving kids on the late night infomercials and ten years ago I survived on nothing but Easy Mac and Top Ramen for 3 months, so I could buy my then girlfriend, the best engagement ring I could afford. So yes, w/o dietary restrictions or regard to your physical appearance/health, it's definitely possible.
Can you survive on a budget of $35/week for food while maintaining a 'pretty much strict' Paleo diet and be an active crossfitter? No fucking way, Jose. But rather than just speculate, I decided to challenge my friend, Charitorae (Cha for short) to prove me wrong. On Saturday I will be sending Cha $40 ($5 extra because the original post's math made absolutely no sense) for her to buy groceries for the week. If she can make it through the week (4/7-4/13) w/ just those groceries, then I am wrong, I am out $40 and I will publicly apologize to...well let's cross that bridge when we come to it.
Cha will be posting updates here, so stay tuned and wish her luck or root against her, because if she fails, she's buying me korean bbq!
