Hey Veeky Forums I'm trying to gain weight but the problem is I only have 50$ left over each month for food so I'm wondering what foods are the cheapest that have the most calories?

>tfw 6'1" 135lbs

tub of lard and bread

search for bill starrs article "big on a budget"

6 dollars a day
One day, you can buy a 5lb bag of rice and mixed veggies.

Then you can buy 6dollars worth of chicken everyday. Well over 2lbs

Wtf I spend 20 a day on food

That's way out of my budget I've been eating peanut butter and bread and Ramen noodles for 3 weeks

How much money are you spending on food every month atm?

Gallon of whole milk at WalMart here is $2.50 for 2400 calories

GOMAD is advised for getting big for a reason

Chicken, rice, beans, egg whites, and whey.

just begrudgery people saying bad things about conor conor is the best thing to happen to mma in many ways he saved the sport he doesnt need to do press conference just fight he will easily beat diaz this time last time was a fluke loads of begrudgers saying he would have pissed hot if he flew to the states last week everyone needs to shut the f*ck up about the press conference its in the past no one cares god your all just geeky nerds nitpicking over things to slate conor over

Math isn't your thing, is it?

50 dollars

Kek

Milk, eggs and ground chuck in bulk will be your best friend. Also, rice! You can literally live off of $1 a day if you just eat rice.

Wtf, that is not enough food to live off of even if you don't lift. Go work an extra shift once/twice a month, or stop spending your money on non-necessities.

aight guise, fukin ideas to eat with rice, ive boiled rice, fried the boiled rice, mixed with veggies, mixed with meat (chicken mostly), made it into a porridge, rice with ketchup.. im running out of ideas and fucking rice is coming out of my ears and nostrils FUCK

oats, rice, beans, milk, bread.
>inb4 bread kills gains
a shoprite near me has a loaf of bread for 99 cents. while its probably not the best quality, it will be high in calories.

That fucking mustache makes me angry.

Same. But i had jelly to go with it but its still boring as hell.
Get one of those reward cards from your local grocery market. That shit really does make a difference on your bill. I use $20 a week on some bland ass food but my friend can buy bland food plus some tasty shit for $25 using rewards card. On top of that, if you use ibotta, you can get back another $5 and add it to your paypal.
Coupons work well too.

I eventually ended up buying lots of pasta, pasta sauce, and ground beef after i got bored with my oatmeal and pbj sandwiches.

I've been living on a pretty tight budget and eating big for a bit now - the cheapest and best things to buy are oats, milk, eggs, peanut butter, peanuts (unsalted in shells can be super cheap sometimes - I got some for 4 euros/kilo. otherwise nuts can be a bit too expensive) and can't forget tuna of course. I eat a lot of cheap cuts of pork if I have money left over.

i used to eat rice with milk and honey as a dessert when i was a kid. tastes good man.

get some golden curry sauce. Diced beef, veggies, and potatoes.

Lentils , beans , garbanzo beans , oats , rice all can be bought in bulk and cheap AF

>50 dollars per month on food

i hope youre from a third world country, cause otherwise you're just straight up retarded when it comes to money

he aint fightin m8

where did all the fighting guys go after /asp turned into a WWE board?

filipino adobo is pretty cheap to make, use chicken breast

We have generals on asp and sometimes people talk about fighting on Veeky Forums, there's also /heem/ on /sp/

I'm in Ontario Canada

these sound interesting.. gotta try these out, thanks bros

especially the adobo

flour

and this too, fuck how can one fail to respond like this

the best option would be instant oats (5 kg for ~15$) from myprotein and milk.. the oats are like flour (fine powder).. just mix 150g with 300ml milk and you have the perfect weight gainer (747 calories per shake), drink two shakes a day and you get big soon, easy mode

Then you are an idiot and dont know how to budget. You cant treat this like a background hobby and expect results.

Im in canada food is fucking expensive here. I spend 400$ per month on food and Im only like 190lbs.

What are you spending so much money on you only have $50 for food??

Rent, hydro and water, my rent is 1200$ a month not including utilities (I don't have heat I just wrap up in a blanket) and I make 1475$ a month

This

Ready, OP?
Get a bag of protein from somewhere that is NOT GNC or Vitamin world or that shit, try Dollar Stores, Big Lots, Grocery Outlet... usually can get a big back of whey 10-14 bucks.

The rest of it? Lentil beans which you can get ass loads for like $5, Rice which you can get like a 10lb bag for like 5 bucks, and then you may still be able to afford yourself a bag of frozen chicken breasts.

You'll be on your way to gains city.

I don't lift man I'm just trying to gain weight so I don't look like an actual auschwitz prisoner

You should lift.

>tfw you're jealous of fat people because they can afford to get fat
>tfw I'm a tooth pick and can't afford to get fat

Can't afford to lift, I'd be burning calories that I can't afford to lose anymore of plus I can't afford weights or gym membership

atleast do some bodyweight excercises. If you dont, you´ll gain just fat

you probably need to eat nothing but chicken, brown rice, and some vegetables.

You can get 6-8 frozen chicken breasts, or 20-30 tenderloins for 5$. you can get an absolute fuckload of rice for like 2$. you can get an equally large bag of beans for like 3$. etc. etc.

You say he's bad at budgeting but you spend $400 on food a month lol. You could probably afford to spend only $150 a month and could get better gains.

This kek

You dont live in canada. Jug of milk costs $6 here.

I do eat well though, I dont cheap out when quality is a factor. Chicken breasts are bulk frozen but I only buy quality bacon and natural peanut butter.

Everything in canada is expensive as fuck, if you make 75k a year youre pretty much on the border of poverty

Dumpster diving, OP. Dumpster diving.

>tfw you pee in the sink so you don't have to flush the toilet and add to the water bill
>tfw you go into the apartment complex for wealthy people and do laundry for free

half the time I just wet a cloth at work and wipe myself down so I don't have to pay water for showers

surprised noone has pointed this out yet

>1475 dollars income
>1200 dollars rent without utilities

you are straight up retarded and if you dont get a roommate your life will be utter shit

Why the fuck would you rent an apartment that costs 4/5 of your income?? Are you a nigger or a shitskin?

I'm white but it's the cheapest I could find man, everything else is 1500 a month or more

I've done that a few times but I shower so I can at least be warm for a few minutes when I'm home, other than that it's freezing until the end of may

Iktf bro I'm in Sudbury Ontario and it gets cold as fuck from like October until June and heat isn't an option because I'm broke as fuck

>tfw I get hypothermia every year

He could be advocating tha op only eats 8 days a month.

Might as well be third world desu senpai

Unless you're a politician or judge/lawyer etc you'll be broke all the time living here

Ontariofag here, can confirm food is goddamn expensive. Just bought 6 cans of tuna in water yesterday for 12.99 shits ridiculous. Chicken is not $2-3 per lb more like 5-6.
5lb of protein is like $70-90 from most places.

This is the only correct answer

beans rice lard

dumpster dive for the rest

Beer and bread

peanuts

You're a fucking faggot, dude.

Too expensive

dude im fucking 5'9 and I weigh 135, I feel like an absolute skeleton right now


are you just like skin and bones?

what is a meal for you

Peanut butter sandwich or Ramen spicy flavored noodles

Excellent picture OP. Connor Mcgregor is huuuge, walking around with a 175lb beast of a frame.

one (1) sandwich?

Yeah usually 1
