The average employee returning to the office spends $561 per month–that's the average two-person household’s grocery bill in the U.S. for the entire month.
Let's see... that's about $9 per person per day, which is still excessive especially if that's supposed to just be groceries and doesn't include buying prepared food somewhere which would easily double it if it's a daily thing, but it's also less than I was expecting.
I mean I live on $1-2 worth of food a day on average, living mostly on beans, rice, ramen, tofu, potatoes, and the occasional egg, but I had the impression that the typical American diet was, like, full of overpriced junk food that's high calorie but also comparatively more expensive per calorie than food cooked from raw ingredients.
