MadB- yup, $2 per person, so if my DH were around this week, we'd have $20 for the 5 days. I have plenty of food, lots of bulk, but no variety or taste really! $20 would change the scenario significantly. I think I'd include a lot more fresh veggies and less flour based meals. I've found it difficult as well, there's no way I'm going to use 100 tea bags, but that was the cheapest way for me to get caffeine. (A withdrawal headache is not going to help anyone!) I'm also not going to use 250g of salt, but needed it to make pasta and bread. I've definitely got enough food for 2 people with the $10!

We're lucky, the $2 only has to cover food and drink for us, for the people LBL is campaigning for, that figure covers food, healthcare, education, transport and shelter....everything.

Thanks for the luck!!!
