Reply to comment by Vegetable_Dish_2487 in LPT: if you're hungry I don't have a lot of money, by pasta. by DivvySUCKS

One box of pasta is $0.12 at my local discount store. If I eat 1/12 of that box then it comes out to one penny per serving.

If you're willing to dumpster dive you can stretch that even further.

Alright the cheapest pasta i can find locally is around 40 cents. Still pretty cheap. I'd just not stick to pasta for all meals cause potatoes and some other veggies are also pretty cheap and provide some Varieté

Sometimes the 12 cent pasta is a little moldy but hey you get what you pay for.

I never have good luck with vegetables. It's like they're made of gold!

That's some expenses pasta.

A 2lb box here costs $0.04 and a 5lb jar of tomato sauce is $0.25.

That is the cost for top shelf pasta.

I would never buy the $0.005 5lb box...my standards are too high for that.
