$20 / 30 days = .66 cents a day
.66 cents a day / 3 meals a day = .22 cents a meal
.22 cents a meal / family of 4 = less than .06 per person
You can't trim a meal's cost by .06 maybe you're so monstrously incompetent you will never be self-sufficient.
I'm glad you broke it down. It's amazing how many people I run into from all over the country who have no concept how to do that. They see a big number (in this case a not so big number, $20) and freak out.
66 cents a day, primitives. 66 cents.
Of course, let's keep in mind these are the same kooks who were crying when Skin's was going to charge them 11.5 cents a day to post on the island.
