Más o menos esto es lo que pido/compro para dos semanas de despensa con bajo presupuesto. La última vez, gasté alrededor de 650 pesos en Bodega Aurrera en línea, adquiriendo todo esto, que alcanzó para dos semanas. Prohibido juzgar, pero espero que sea útil alguna recomendación de lo que compro como foránea para comer mejor. Podrán ver que la mayoría de las cosas buscan primordialmente la practicidad, porque por el ritmo que llevo, es lo que me es más conveniente actualmente. Sé que muchas compras pudieran resultar más baratas y saludables siendo compradas en comercios y mercados locales, pero actualmente yo no tengo acceso a ellos tan fácil, y tampoco un tiempo y rutina adecuados para probar esa opción. Entonces, si este es también tu caso, quizá te sea útil mi lista, o incluso si no lo es, espero sirva para encontrar las opciones equivalentes a mejor precio en mercados locales. Lo importante de esta lista es que puedas ver que con productos sencillos, puedes subsistir por 2 semanas realizando comidas variadas.
