$4 US in the US would be very tough. I think $10 is doable.

beans, rice, lettuce, egg whites.  I think it could be done.

[GoneAway]

Easily, if you're well liked around the shelters.

[240 is Back]

Yes.  You can date people 2 levels below your "league". 

They'll feel you twice a day.  Then you hit the dollar menus for meals #3 and 4.

Don't forget the pine needles.

If you cook at home, I think it would be doable.

Oatmeal for breakfast.

A box of mac and cheese for lunch.

Two eggs for dinner.

WWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSSSS SSSSSSSSSSHHHHHHHHHHHHHH HHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[MAXX]

Easy

That's 28$ in 1 week. For that you buy the cheapest big bags of rice and chicken you can find. Could prolly afford some canned pineapple on top of that

[Bad Boy Dazza]

YES - EASY

lentils, freeze dried beans chick peas etc  CHEAP and loaded with protein and nutrients

In a country as rich as ours, NO ONE should be hungry.

Since when is being in MASSIVE debt considered rich you stupid bitch?

[Groink]

Those McDoubles are like 600 calories and they are a dollar, that's 2400 calories a day.  you wouldn't like it but you'd live

[BigCyp]

here in switerland, you can, but itd be either only pasta with nothing, or bread with mayonaise.


i cant think of any european nation where 4usd a day would feed anyone properly.

In england I could eat 10 whole eggs, 1kg rice, and 2 litres of milk for 2.5 pounds/4 dollars

[MichaelScottDM]

I don't spend much more than 8 bucks a day for my home cooked food. I buy in bulk from Costco. Diet consists of Eggs, Turkey breast, Chicken Breast, Tuna, Oatmeal, Green veggies, whole wheat bread and almonds. I'm always checking the local market for deals on steaks which I usually find marked down 70% twice a month. I stock up and freeze that meat. I don't do this to be cheap I just find that being smart about it saves me 100-150 bucks a month.

[BikiniSlut]

If you don't want to get your proper vitamins and minerals, then yes.

[polychronopolous]

16 bowls of 25 cent ramen noodles a day.

[WOOO]

my food costs approx $20/day (mostly boneless chicken breast) if i don't eat out

no homo

[Bad Boy Dazza]

Western people are weak.  It is EASY to survive on less than 4 dollars if you can do without the fluff.

[anabolichalo]

just eat cheap rice and u can have all u can eat for $4

Stereotype diet.  I'm surprise the white boys aren't all over you on this one.  Oh, arce must be from a poor country to come of with that number.  When I was in Mangueira, $4 per day was the magic US dollar number to cover your daily meals.  I'm talking nice South American meat, definitely not a McD's heart attack menu or some of these fools coming with a spoon of rice and a can of tuna.

This. I would have to resort to this in college sometimes near the end of the semester.
