Beef is NoT expensive at all. Is not the price per pound. Many kinds of beef are about the cost of many cereals. Say 6 dollars a pound. STOP. Consider the nutrition in the beef. You can not buy enough cereal. To match it. 11 large eggs, about $ 2.75 = 1 pound of 85/15 ground beef pretty close in nutrition, it double the nutritional value of beef on a per dollar basis. You have to think about it properly,!

Yep. Beef prices are high (and getting higher) and until someone actually carnivore shops it is hard for them to believe there is cost savings.

I try to explain it like, 'imagine you go in the grocery store, skip straight to the meat counters, leave there and pick up some toilet paper/toothpaste and from there head to the eggs and then to the register".

Anything that seems extra with the meat is easily absorbed in not buying vegetables, fruits, canned goods, flour, sugar, sauces, chips and cookies.

It is still hard to convince others tho, LOL

It is just my wife and I, and it is savings for us.

If we have steaks, she eats a steak with whatever else she cooks. If she wants hamburgers then we eat from the same pack. There are times when she eats something that does not really flip my boat and we eat different things.

That particular meal probably goes up and tad but end of the month we are still saving money with me being a carnivore.

Plus, factor in there are three-four-five days a months I don't eat at all. LOL

Pretty much the same here Scott. I do most of the cooking and my wife is fine with just eating what I cook. If she wants something extra like an avocado or onion she will add it herself but for the most part she eats what I eat.

I feel for the younger families where only one person in the household is eating a strict carnivore diet but everyone else eats SAD. It can drive up the cost of groceries and it’s hard on the mental game.
