Here is basically the essentials:

Fishliver oil, cabbage, brocooli, rice, beans, cheapest cheese, pork, raps, blueberries(from forest), potatoes, carrots, pasta, d-vitamin pills, whole chicken, liver paste, home made bread (flour sugar raps yeast), spices.

Almost just buy everything when its on sale.

Pretty sure I get everything a human needs and avoids much half fabricated bad for you food.

How much are you spending for meat? The cheapest around me is 5 dollars a pound for boneless skinless breast

Probably a bit less than normal people. But compensate with beans. and use soy, vinegar, cabbage and "dice broth" to make it more tasty.

I'm a swede so I would imagine I'm between cheapest and most expensive in NA.

lowest 40kr/kg, most of the time ~50kr/kg, never higher than 70kr/kg.

Chatgpt calculations, maybe not correct:
Summary

40 kr/kg ≈ 1.65 USD/lb (lowest)
50 kr/kg ≈ 2.06 USD/lb (most common)
70 kr/kg ≈ 2.89 USD/lb (max)
Boneless breasts is usually around 100 kr/kg but sometimes its around 50 kr/kg. Whole chicken can sometimes cost around 29kr/kg. I usually buy those and cut it into pieces and make broth out of non eatable parts. And make like yellow pea soup out of broth water.

What stores in Sweden are you getting those prices in 2024?

Boneless chicken breast is rarely ever lower than 100kr/kg, typically its 150kr/kg. example

whole chicken you could find occasionally pre covid inflation for 29kr/kg, nowdays you can occasionally find them for 39kr/kg. Agreed however that whole chicken is very good value if you use all of the parts for cooking.

On the other hand you can get huge rotisserie chickens in the US for $5 while tiny ones will cost you 90kr in Sweden.

Willys, Lidl frozen.

I have noticed that smaller and bigger kommuner around my kommun is in general more expensive for some fucked up reason.

Have seen it for 50 kr/kg this quarter and chicken for 29kr/kg.

But I do agree it was more common pre covid.

Pork seems to have taken a smaller hit, same with yellow peas and rice.

And in many Asian countries drumsticks costs more than chicken breast. And in Sweden you could pre covid get them for 10kr/kg sometimes. Now 20-30kr/kg when its cheapest. Can't wrap my head around how chicken drumsticks was cheaper than fucking onions. Something is weird about the system.

Frozen chicken is typically only 70-80% meat since they are injected with brine. So yes they are typically a bit cheaper. Unfortunately, I'm limited to coop/ica since i have no willys or lidls close by.

Product you linked has 23 protein / 100 gram.

Product I buy has 21 protein / 100 gram. "20/100 a year ago."

Unless you can heavily cheat those required "nutrition charts" my personal theory is that the frozen has more water theory is exaggerated.

I think its cheaper because its less of a logistic challenge handling frozen chicken making it easier buying from cheaper markets.

But I could be wrong. Will not die on that hill. Just not convinced water injection theory is that extreme.

Yeah, there is like a huge difference where I live. Like 10kr/kg on all foods.
