Week 2- Grocery Shopping!

The worst possible thing a Ketoer can find when they walk into the supermarket is... an empty meat section.

I'm not sure if the entire suburb I live in has gone keto or something, but there was VERY slim pickings at the supermarket. I managed to grab the last 1kg pack of ground beef, there were no chicken thighs, and the steak section was not very inspirational. Good thing I like chicken wings! The other supermarket wasn't much better- they were out of the pork roasts that were on special, nothing else screamed 'Take me home! Eat me!'.

My haul from the grocery stores!

So this is what I ended up with:

First shop:
Sliced ham (2x250gram packs) - $8.00
Kangaroo burgers (2x440gram packs) - $9.00
1 large zucchini (292grams) - $1.45
Bunch of coloured radishes - $3.00
Frozen cauliflower (500grams) $2.00
Danish salami  (100grams) $3.00
Cream cheese (250grams) $2.90
Chicken wings (2 packs) - marked down to $1.83 and $2.24
Beef mince (1kg) - $5.00
Sour cream (500grams) - $2.20
Cream (600ml) - $2.25
Feta (200grams) $3.79
Canned salmon (415grams) - $2.59
Sugar free jelly, Cherry flavour - $1.45
Garlic Powder (25grams) $1.20
Shirataki noodles - $2.40

Plus some non-keto things for my husband
Giant sweet potato (662grams) - $1.32
Piece of watermelon (1.47kg) - $0.74
Make your own yogurt powder (x2) $5.68
Couscous (500gram box) - $1.75
Muesli (900gram bag) - $2.60
Green Thai Curry sauce - $0.90

Total $67.29

Second shop:
String cheese (pack of 8) - $5.00
Hungarian salami (100grams) - $3.00
Frozen beans (1kg) - $1.79
Bottle of sugar free Sunkist - $0.99

Total: $10.78

Final total: $78.07
Remainder: $41.93

Note: I just realised that it looks like we weren't charged for the celery! I was at the second store while my husband was at the first, paying for it, so maybe he flirted with the checkout girl? Thanks! Saving of $2.98!
