Bag of flour, packet of yeast, pinch of salt, and some water....dirt cheap bread and a hell of a lot better tasting than store bought.
Brita water filter and tap water.
But you have to buy the bread maker, first - how much does that cost.
nope....bread is 1.99 maybe and water is 1.00
coke is 1.25 and chips depending on size and bag 99.2.50+
Prices are different here, don't forget!
You must be fortunate to live in an area where the tap water is actually drinkable. I invite you to my place to drink the tap water. If you like it cloudy and full of grit, I am sure you it will be a real thirst quencher.
Have you ever considered getting your pipes checked and make sure they aren't rusting through or having your water provider coming and testing the water and complaining to them that the water quality is poor? I know if I have cloudy gritty water, I'd damn well complain to those I pay my water bill to.
Done that, water company said nothing is wrong. The water is okay now, it changes every once in a while, but it still tastes like shit. I only drink bottled water - there is an obvious difference in taste between our tap water and bottled water.
Not when I can do that ^^^^.
In California you have to blame the lack of inner city grocery stores on Democrat lawmakers.
I'm not being partisan here. Just telling it like it is. Check out these regulations. And by the way this is from an excellent article on the difficulty of getting grocery stores into the inner city.
I mean come on. Four acres of parking required? In an inner city?
Top grocery chains say the high cost and low availability of land keeps them away from these neighborhoods.
Full service supermarkets are required to have 50,000 sq. ft. buildings and four acres of parking.
The long permit process in California is also a deterrent.
"It's hard to develop a plan for a large grocery because the building costs and estimates can change significantly over the course of the permit process," says Dave Heylen, vice president of communications for the California Grocers Association, which represents 6,000 stores in California.
The Association says it is working with city officials to overcome legal barriers to new grocery stores
Inner-city L.A. hungers for good grocery stores - CSMonitor.com
and dont forget the hand in hand reason.... the unions!
The inner city here crys... we have no grocery.... but try and get one in.. and the unions have a shit fit and block anything... THEY dont approve of.
Which unions? It's just a screw the poor country (read black)...

Because its too expensive.
Do you know that it is cheaper to buy a jumbo bag of potato chips and a 2 litre bottle of coke than it is to buy a loaf of bread and a bottle of water?
Ever got those catalogues in the mail with the latest specials from your local supermarket? How many times do you see soft drinks, chocolate, chips and cakes discounted, sometimes by up to 50%? Compare that to how many times you see a price reduction on healthy foods, like apples, oranges, bananas, and bottled water.
In KFC the other day, it was cheaper for me to buy a burger, a piece of chicken, three wings, a small popcorn chicken, a regular chips, a regular gravy and a can of Pepsi than it was to buy a salad and a bottle of water. I wanted a salad and a water, but when I compared the prices, I wondered why I should spend more money on a healthy item when I can get the unhealthy food a lot cheaper?
How many other families see this problem? How about no discounts on junk food, and discounts only on healthy foods?
I never used to understand why people claimed they couldn't afford healthy foods, but I understand now, because its true.

Silly us, for generations we've always used the oven not some fancy bread maker. Maybe that's what the problem is, too many people think the oven is the place you store shit.
Truth. Now I don't mind using my bread maker on a dough cycle when I'm in a hurry (bought at a my favorite store, the Mennonite Thrift Shop gently used for a song).

No breadmaker, silly....just roll the dough into a log, partially slice perpendicular to the longitudinal axis, and toss on a cookie sheet and into the oven (put a pan of water on lower oven shelf for humidity so that you get that great crust). That's a good baquette. I don't bake many things, but this is about as easy as it gets.
Wonder (or any other packaged breads, pretty much) bread?

There are so many inexpensive lovely recipes out there. My heritage is Ukranian/Irish (potatoes have figured prominently in my life).
I grew up on perogies, borscht, cabbage rolls, potato pancakes. All cheap and oh so good.
There is a world of recipes that are based on "peasant food" and are absolutely fabulous.
Poh folks get tax dollars in the way of social bennies, like food stamps & cash. Why should they eat healthy food when they can afford potato chips & beer? i mean if these poh folks need medical assistance because of a poor diet... the medical is free through subsidization of tax monies.
If I was poh enough to afford it I'd be smokin' those big Cuban Havana's, drinking the cold ones & eating potato chips too! Wouldn't U???
People on food stamps can't buy beer.

Bullshit. They simply use the food stamps for food, which free up their own Cash they would have needed to use on food, to buy Beer.
