On <em>one person's</em> diet? The food budget for our family of <em>four</em> is about $130 a month, and that's still way above a "beans and rice" diet. What was this guy eating <em>before</em> Monkey Chow came along - filet mignon and caviar? I'm assuming it wasn't TV dinners, since he does mention scrubbing pots and pans and washing dishes (implying that he was actually preparing something). But for a dollar a meal, I can eat pretty darn good food designed for <em>humans.</em> Sheesh!</p> Save six hundred dollars a month? On one person’s diet?
