The county welfare agency allows $5.00 a day per adult for food.

I am not on welfare. Some who qualify for welfare are getting morbidly
obese on it.

I can easily live on $3.00 a day, shopping at the 99 Cents Only
stores, Food4Less, and having a budget menu burger at a fast food
chain once or twice a week.

It's the last part that I regret. Beef is slow to digest and the fat
makes me gain weight.
