what is a reasonable to spend for one person?

Question

for food. This person lives alone and has a full kitchen
the person lives in st Pete FL

Answer 1

I go to the store once a month and spend around $80.

Answer 2

It depends on other debts as to what kind of food budget the person has. Are there any dietary conditions to consider? I would think that food costs can range from $30 a week to $300 a week depending on what the person likes and dislikes. Hot dogs and eggs are cheap while Prime Rib and seafood tends to be pricey.

Answer 3

depends on alot of things...is this person a male or a female?

An older active person or a young couch potato (or 'potatoe' if you are a political figure),

Does the person like to have meat in their diet or are they vegatarian?

Is this person 'brand aware' or would they mind substituting for generics...for example, I can save a few bucks buying knock off cereal for my son but he swears he can tasted the difference and doesnt enjoy eating it, it costs about $1.00 more to buy the name brand and he eats about a box a week....

Can this person cook, if so,
What kind of schedule does this person have (meaning will they have time to make food or will they require foods that are easy to prepare like frozen stuff or will they mind making things from scratch (cheaper))

Does this person have a healthy weight or are they classified as slighty heavy (more caloric intake),

IS this the kind of person that lives to eat (junk food) or eats to live (fruits and vegetables)
