      Not in Canada you can't. For an average:
      -Your bag of rice is gonna be 4 dollars
      -Not sure what veggies you're thinking of, so I'll go broccoli for another 2.50 since its on the cheaper side.
      -For your meats I'll be honest I'm not familiar since I don't eat it but from what I'm seeing you're looking at least 5 more dollars.
