JM, was that $400 on just groceries, or with going out factored in? I believe it was both.

I think Braised Beef which is good for a stew or stirfry, is no more expensive than ground beef. Which can be around $4 for a pound

Hell, whole wheat pasta costs more than regular pasta. And don't forget about price markups for organic stuff.
