[QUOTE="EggsEggsEggs, post: 2289926, member: 528069"] Hi there ! My first thread, so here goes.. After doing an online order to be delivered on Saturday, just as a top-up shop, I wondered whether other people find low carb expensive ? If you haven't gone low carb or ketogenic yourself, is the expense a factor ? Taking off the charge for delivery and bags and the one carby packet of gluten-free cheese oatcakes for my husband, the cost was £41.99 Wild Pacific red salmon small can 2 @ 3.50 each Sicilian Giarraffa olives with lemon £2 Smoky paprika and chilli Halkidiki olives 1.69 Polish sauerkraut 500g 85p Polish apple vinegar 250ml £2 Organic Extra Virgin olive oil 500ml 2 @ 3.25 each Growing herbs - basil, mint, parsley flat leaf parsley - 50p each Organic avocados 2 @ £1 each Organic cauliflower 1.80 Organic broccoli 300g £1 Organic bell pepper twin pack x2 @ 1.45 Organic carrots 500g (only eaten raw) 65p Organic white mushrooms 250g 75p Triple pack 3 x 70g tins organic tomato paste 2 packs @ £1 each Organic tinned whole peeled plum tomatoes in organic tomato juice 65p (20p off) Clotted cream 2.25 Greek yogurt 5% fat 500g 2.75 Prosciutto PDO 80g 2.50 No meat. poultry, game, fish, offal, sausages, bacon, as that's in the freezer along with Cheddar, butter and lard. Stocked up on cheese for fridge, last week. Also got eggs to last until next Monday. With the bits and pieces in the fridge, there are five lunches and quite a few meal ingredients, as well as seven breakfasts. Is this good, bad, indifferent ? How do you keep the cost of low carb down ? Do you buy in bulk ? Grow your own ? [/QUOTE]
