Blackberry season will soon be here

How good is the security at your local supermarket?

If it's a bit too hot to shoplift you can eat stuff as you walk round.

Frozen goods inside, very few female store security guards.

If you are prepared to cook mainly vegitarian and get your protein from pulses then you can eat a good diet very cheaply.

I shall consult my butler on this. The caviar seems to be quite expensive for this time of the year.

That's because it is out of season you oik!

Protein? I think I've eaten a few hundred flies this week while out on the bike...so that is a plus for vegetarians..if you cycle

 

[TreeHuggery]

lentils and pulses really cheap but always wonder whether the amount of time spent cooking them negates their bargainous price.... pre the allotment we have been known to do a quick ride past farmers field, grab a few sweetcorn or whatever for a bit of variety

makes sense if I weren't so scared of pressure cookers - the stuff of childhood nightmares - never think to freeze 'em just make me and Mr Treehuggery eat chick pea themed meals for a week, have a week off and then have a butter bean themed week #varietyisthespiceoflife

News just in: Flies aren't vegetables.

As long as you can cook, are imaginative, can plan meals and aren't seduced by marks n Spencer adverts you can eat very well for sod all shopping at the discount supermarkets and still leave a bit for the odd treat curry-out or similar.

I can't cook but was once very poor and I can confirm that rice and tins of chopped tomatoes can keep you alive for pennies.

When Arch used to post regularly i think she used to survive on a couple of quid a day.

I think it helps if you like pasta.

In my travelling days, it was widely known that the cheapest forms of sustenance available to man were bananas and milk. Not very helpful, perhaps, but it's always stayed with me.

 

[Milkfloat]

I lived on pasta, peas and egg at Uni - at least 4 times a week for 4 years.

Have a look at any KFC or McDOnald boxes you see in the street. There may be something left in them

It might be the wrong time of year, but if you are out in the country look out for farmers feeding swedes or neeps to their sheep, if you get in quickly you might get one with very few teeth marks.
