      @@ly9386 actually I know people that really don’t try or want to save money. I remember one time going on a trip with a friend and we stopped for lunch. We both got a sandwich and they had a deal that for $1 more you could make it a meal with a drink and bag of chips. She purposely paid more by rejecting the meal deal and only getting a drink. I asked her why she didn’t just get the meal but she said she didn’t want the chips. It really boggled my thrift-centric mind. You literally paid more. You could have thrown the chips away, gave them away or saved them for another time.

    I cannot articulate what I found so charming about this. I also love watching June’s budget eats videos - but part of the fun there is the voyeuristic pleasure of watching a genuinely skilled chef get creative with restricted ingredients. This was charming for a completely different reason - you didn’t become the Iron Chef, but you fed yourself reasonably healthy, occasionally tasty food on a tight budget and, as always, you radiated positive (slightly chaotic) energy.

  • @Barumonster

    As an American living in a mid to low cost area, the prices of these things still blow my mind. I shop at a lower budget grocer and a bag of frozen veg is still more like $3 alone. When I was 20 I was living on canned ravioli, sliced cheese, and an arizona tea. Cost me around $2-3.
    But I will say, seasoning makes a world of difference for something like this. Basic seasoning you should keep around is salt, pepper, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning. These 4 things in various combinations can improve most dishes.

    Tips on the porridge/oatmeal 😝 (bc I’ve been through this before 😭) :
    - pay attention to the oatmeal while it’s in the microwave because it tends to rise up and overflow in the bowl
    - stir it for about 30 seconds
    - then put it back to heat up for about 1 min and 30 seconds
    - repeat this until the oats start to look full (instead of flat and dry like how they were before)
    - i usually add honey and sugar so you can try that as well if you’d like

    you just cook the pasta like you normally would - boil water, add salt, add pasta, cook until al dente. Then just open a can of tuna, crush them to tiny chunks, add the pasta on it, add some olive oil. Mix, and voila. Tuna pasta. Seriously, it tastes amazing. I never expected it. Super simple, pretty cheap, really yummy!

    Nice video. To make the banana pancakes a little better, you can add cinnamon or cardamom to the flour, and if you want them fluffier, about a quarter of a teaspoon of baking soda or baking powder and a pinch of salt, or a little (half a teaspoon) of vanilla extract and/or a few tablespoons of yogurt to the mashed banana.
    Little things like onions and garlic add a lot of flavor, and a little bit of garlic goes a long way. Also dried onion, garlic powder, chilli, Italian seasoning, or a little bit of soy sauce or vinegar helps add flavor.
    Some supermarket store brand products are the same as branded because the supermarket's distributor buys from the same manufacturer.

      10 Canadian dollars is only £5.75 so between the 3 shops Taz spent closer to $20. Also she bought the majority in Lidl and Aldi which are budget supermarkets and even then she seemed to be choosing the cheapest options. If she had done her whole shop in Morrisons or somewhere like Tesco or Asda it would have cost a lot more.

    This was great Taz. As a fellow it takes forever to cook person, I have afew tips to help things along;
    1. Get a couple of tools. You mashed the potato with a fork, a masher will help. It's quicker to toast bread in a toaster, the oven takes forever.
    2. You need liquid in a blender, that's why you had so much trouble with the hummus!
    3. Multitask when cooking. It very much looks like you are doing some things step by step when you can do them at the same time.
    4. Speed will come, especially if you can get quicker at prep.

    Hi! Product developer here! Yes, it's true! In name brands you pay for packaging. Funny thing, many MANY of the foods without a namebrand are actually made in the namebrand factories.
    For example: hacendado pizza (the pizzas by Mercadona) are super cheap and are actually made by CASA TARRADELLAS a quite expensive brand. Hacendado pays to casa Tarradellas to buy their pizzas with a different packaging because that's cheaper than building a whole pizza factory.
