    I just came across your channel today and I'm enjoying your videos. I was a bit shocked at the prices that you pay for food in Canada compared to what I pay for groceries here in Texas. I thought that our prices were outrageous but yours are much higher than ours. Anyway, I figured out how much it would cost for me to make a dozen breakfast burritos as shown in your video. I even included the cost of 12 sheets of parchment paper, which I don't think you included in your total. Here is the breakdown:
    12 sheets of parchment paper (.11 each)
    12 medium flour tortillas (.13 each)
    1 pound pork sausage ($3.19)
    1 dozen eggs ($2.00)
    4 tablespoons butter (.50) - for cooking the eggs or I could use the drippings from the sausage
    1 green pepper (.69)
    2 Roma tomatoes (about .75)
    8 ounces cheese ($2.00)
    Total cost for a dozen burritos: $12.00 or $1.00 each. Deduct 4-cents from each one if cooking the eggs in the sausage grease.
    It would actually cost a bit less than this for me because I always buy pork sausage when it is on sale and/or I have a coupon. The prices for the other ingredients rarely change with the exception of the eggs. They are currently $2.00 per dozen here but that can change and I occasionally get them cheaper than the current price with a coupon. I tend to wait for a sale on them and stock up since they keep for a long time in the fridge.
    Note that I've omitted the cilantro but a bunch costs 57-cents here at Walmart.

      Wow! Thanks for this Linda! This is very helpful for our friends in the south. Interesting to see price differences. Love the breakdown. Good point about the parchment paper... I hadn't considered that. A dollar a burrito and nothing left out..nice! We're working on a salsa video next. There’s a lack of Mexican food in our neck of the woods so we thought we'd try a recipe and price comparison of prepared options.
