Big on a Budget

I got 1.5kg beef mince for $7.20. Pasta + sauce for $10. Lasts a couple of days, easy enough.

When I was a teen I would just get shit like -

Milk Powder
Tuna
Cheap meat
Rice/pasta
whatever was on sale really
 
The missus manages a Woolworths. Every night within a couple of hours of closing, the roast chooks are discounted by 50%, they then get further reduced as closing time approaches.

Last week I picked up 2 roast chooks for $3 each.

A bit painful as you have to go to the supermarket late and hope they still have some, but if you're desperate enough for a cheap protein source its worth a crack.

I've tried this a few times and I always miss out
 
As someone who eats a natural human diet, wings, onions, leaves, flowers, frozen berries, chops and ribs are your best bets. Mince is good as well but I avoid it- I like my meat with bones

I eat on $5-7 a day including shakes
Much cheaper than this Italian nonsense

3 whole eggs omelette woth some randomvege - breaky and dinner
300g Chicken breast with 1 cup of broccoli - 2 meals
1 x pwo protein shake @ under 1500 calories

 
Hate kangaroo meat, tastes like crap, and there are thousands in my back yard, they look and breed like big rats, I hit at least one or two every month my my 4x4.

Worst ever was 4 in one day, did that twice, two in one day is common when driving at dusk, my neighbour goes kangaroo culling, they shoot about 100-200 in a couple of hours, till they run out of bullets (the farmer supplies them the bullets)

Can't see why anyone would pay for the crap, but thats just me.
 
Really mick?
I think it tastes fucking awesome personally!!
Especially when cooked right. Cant go wrong with the macro meats marinated stuff too.
Aussies should eat more of it imo. But thats another story.

Bullshit what they charge now though. Used to be 4 bucks a kilo because no one ever bought it haha. Now its closer to 3x that.

Sure it aint scotch fillet. Or lamb. But its number 3 atleast for me.

Tim.
 

Jesus, that's tragically low in calories
 
I don't usually go that much higher on the protein, but the fat and carbs is so low. That's not even breakfast.
 
my TDEE is 2800 calories. I spent 4 weeks with a 20% deficit @ 2240 calories... Didnt get any weightloss, currently doing 1800 calories for the past 10 days.. Loooking to cut a lil more to 1500 cals and see how I go. As long as I can keep on benching 110kg/squat140kg/DL 220kg with this low calories, im not complaining!
 

Da fuq? serious? I thought it was a national symbol that should be treasured.

Did not know they were a pest

.. Poor skippy..
 
Kangaroos are a pest. Drove out on one of my paddocks 2 days ago. In the middle of the day within 500m radius I had about 100 kangaroos. Then they all scatter and bust up all my fences.

Not keen on eating kangaroo anymore. Used to like it but now its more expensive that what I can get quality beef for and tastes no where near as good.
