    Love how even the examples make no sense, Like $130 for a week and a half is what like $12 a day? Like what even is a fancy soda or drink in this example? and for a 10 or 11 day stretch $35 on protein bars is the cost of a coffee a day. Hell I wish I could feed myself for only $12 a day.

    "Gen Z, meanwhile, said they often choose high-quality snacks and beverages, which makes for expensive grocery bills.

    One 23-year-old Gen Zer told Business Insider by text that he spends about $130 on groceries for a week and a half. “Fancy sodas and drinks” and “random snacks at Trader Joe’s” account for the bulk of the bill. He also said he spends about $35 on protein bars."

        If they don’t pay for actual groceries then 12$ a day sounds like a lot for snacks.

          And if they do pay for groceries $12 a day is not abnormal, $4 a meal (assuming they are having 3 a day) is not some highfalutin lifestyle.
