      They are not, I'm in New York city and we don't spend nearly as much, while only eating organic healthy Mediterranean diet.

With 7 being fancy one with nuts or olives in it and 3 being your normal whole grain round loaf. You can buy a whole god damn salmon for 40 bucks in SE Asian enthic markets (although those are farmed). But guess what, farmed salmon has more omega 3 cuz it accumulates more fat by being lazy at the farm instead of working hard to survive in wilderness).

Then again they are a once a week occurrence so you can justify treating yourself to the good stuff every now and then. Point is, I don’t call this the “right place” to shop for food.

However our farmer markets a few and far between but I currently live near a fish market that always sells their fish products much cheaper than the grocery store.

    Yeah maybe if you’re rich. Try feeding my family of four. 1 adult that works all day doing physical labour, 1 adult that works an office job half the day and works from home/is on call the rest of the day, and 2 teenage boys.
    That salmon would be enough for my dad. You could make 2 salads with those greens. The carrots would be enough for 2 of us which would last a single meal. The blueberries would be gone in 2 days. The strawberries gone in 2 days. All that bread would be gone in 2 days. That amount of food would only last 2 days and would only barely cover dinner and a couple snacks to fill in the blanks. We’d have to multiply that by 3.5 to last a week. Then buy the same amount of stuff which will cost a similar amount for lunch. So 7x that cost. Then there’s breakfast. We eat light so that much money would last the week. In the end it’s be approximately 8x your budget just to feed our family.
    That’s about $680 a week if we bought enough food to last the week from just the farmers market. Of course in our normal groceries we get extra things like spreads and treats and desserts that usually last 2-4 weeks depending on what it is. You might as well round it up to $730 if you want to find alternatives for those that will last a week. Then the gas cost because we don’t have any farmers markets near us.
    In the end we’d be spending almost $800 a week. Far more than double what we pay at NoFrills. No thanks.
    Also you can make bread for a couple bucks a loaf MAX. That’s if you’re making some type of fancy bread. And large loaves. There’s a bakery near me that sells larger than store bought sourdough loaves for $5.16. Is it pricier? Yeah. But they give away all leftovers to homeless people at the end of the day so they don’t waste anything rather than throwing it out. They’re a chain bakery but they make it all fresh every day. I don’t mind paying a bit extra to support that type of place.
