My grocery bill dropped by thirty bucks a week when I stopped buying lunch meat

I used to grab a pack of turkey or ham every trip, thinking it was cheap. Then I started cooking a whole chicken on Sunday, shredding the meat for sandwiches and salads. That one $8 chicken gives me protein for five days. Anyone else have a simple swap that cut their food costs fast?

What, you mean the pink slime in a tube isn't a good deal?

Right? I bought some once and it tasted like salty rubber bands.

Used to think it was fine until I got a bad batch that tasted exactly like that.
