Poor people can’t afford canned soup, not since covid. Campbells was was 2/$1, $.79 at most. Now it’s $2. Progresso was 3/$5, maybe $1.50 per. Now it’s $2.79 each.
Crockpot or instapot and a freezer is the way, now.
Yeah the only time I touch canned goods, including seltzer (as I touched on in another comment) is when they’re heavily discounted, and that’s usually something like eight cans for five bucks, so we stock the shelf in the basement a bit, because it’d be real dumb to pass it up at the store on Monday, only to have the world end on Wednesday.
Yup. Crockpot with beans, rice, lentils, chopped veggies, a few bouillon cubes, spices, and whatever meat the grocery store has on clearance. The entire thing will average out to like $1 per bowl, and a big crockpot will keep a couple fed (lunch and dinner) for several days.

Bruh costco chicken is like $5, get some chicken and make some chicken soup with that.
$2 is insane for salt water

I guess Instant Pot really fucked up by not calling their product “Instapot,” huh?
I always thought that’s what it was, then I googled “instapot” and found it’s not actually a thing. TIL!
…I’m still gonna call it that, though.
That’s awfully helpy! Thanks for the thing you said I wasn’t knowful about.
I hate you
Blame English for being unpleasant to say “nt” followed by a “p” sound.
Or pretty much any consonant, hence instacart?
Sometimes I feel like I’m the only person who likes making weird sounds with their mouth
This is how the English language works.
