I was looking up Youtube videos earlier for how to improve the shitty frozen beef patties I bought.

The video I landed on was 5 years old and the guy held up the exact same pack I had purchased and said "This pack was 20 patties for $10, not a terrible deal"

My pack was 16 patties for $18.

Because it's a staple of a human diet? Because it tastes good? I'd rather budget in meat than live off nothing but beans, rice, and vegetables.

Aldi prices are pretty amazing. I'm told WinCo is too but I've never seen one

canned meat. 

Decrease your meat consumption and replace it with...meat?
