Found some money lying on the floor today while shopping.

If you're not eating organic, $100 for 3 weeks is easily doable for 1 person.

Here is what I eat on a workday:
8 oz fage yogurt
1/2 scoop of Brown Rice protein
1 hand full of nuts (walnut or pecan)
1 hand full of raisins

4 hard boiled eggs

1 banana, orange, or kiwi
8 oz coconut water
1 scoop of whey protein
3 hand fulls of "Power Greens" mixed salad from Costco

1/4 cup of grain (quinoa, farrow, or brown rice)
1/2 bag of broccoli from Trader Joes

I'm at about $7 a day and I'm eating healthy (and cutting).

If I just wanted to stay under the $5 mark I'd just buy whole chicken, eggs, cheap vegetables, and whatever grain was cheap.

I eat too much, plain and simple. I have to try super hard not to eat over 2000 calories a day. I'm pretty much fat.

America is getting Polymer notes?
We had that in 1992! (Australia)

Perhaps in the year 2040 America will upgrade to the Metric system?

That's overly optimistic. :\

Without receipts most people underestimate their grocery spending trying to look good.

Back from the supermarket. No one claimed the money. The same cashier was on duty and she phoned the manager and the lady brought the envelope down from the safe on the second floor & explained to me that they normally keep lost objects for one month but if no one claimed money after three days, chances are very slim it'll be claimed. I used part of the $100 to buy some groceries.

I really hope not. The metric system is inferior for every day life. Celcius is less precise than Fahrenheit and the range doesn't map to anything sensible. 0C isn't that cold and 100C is death. 0F and 100F were picked specifically because they represent the most common temperature extremes most humans experience. Also, cooking with the metric system is absolutely retarded compared to using quantities that actually make sense with recipes. Please pass me 4.93 mL of salt, or you can just give me one teaspoon.

As an engineer, I fully embrace the metric system for work. For home, it's not better.

Sometimes I can't figure out if you're stupid or smart.

My pet rabbit would be sooo jealous if he could read.

I'd say 100 on 3 weeks is pretty hard. I can probably do $200 on three weeks if I wanted to try harder. I probably spend about $100 each week on food just for me.
