I was curious enough to do some research and found an 8b bag of Ore Ida tater tots for $7.26 and a 200 count package of the 3.5" trays for $10.98. That's 5.6 cents an oz for tots and 5.5 cents per tray. One oz of tater tots is about 3 tots. I'm guessing you could get the same amount of volume from about 6 tots, so they're saving about 5 cents a tray. Of course, that assumes commercial prices are the same as normal ones, but I assume the cost savings wouldn't be too far off when you buy bulk.

Amazon!

Have you ever seen these ? They suck

Nope he means unwaxed butcher paper

Hits in our house:

• divided tupperwares with pre-made lunchables... crackers, chopped chicken or ham, and cheese you can really assembly line these and stick a small juice box inside too and we leave enough for one each low enough for them to pull out whenever they want.
  
  
• Pizza biscuits. Cut biscuits in half, get the kids to shape it into pizza dough, splotch of marinara sauce and sprinkle of cheese. Cheap, they make and assemble them, I bake them.
  
  
• Date rolls. They taste chocolatey and the kids like how sugary they are.
  
  
• Yogurt ranch dip and cucumber chips. This is easy to stick in a 2oz container and small tupperware and let them, again, pull it out whenever.
  
  
• Cut fruit. Apples, pre-peeled oranges, grapes, watermelon... I usually put some vanilla yogurt in a 2 oz container with it.
  
  
• Applesauce. You can buy this in giant tubs and split it into serving cups with lids.
  
  
• Granola bars from the discount grocery store. The mini quaker oats kids-sized bars or something like that are like $1 a box at mine.
  
  
• Trail mix. Trader Joes has small, pre-made trail mix bags. The chocolate one is the kids' favorite.
  
  
• Premade chocolate milk. Good lightweight snack for littler ones.
  
  
• Cereal. Too easy, and we'd put it in a tupperware bowl with a small carton of milk.
  
  I bought a ton of cheap kid-friendly tupperware and bulk disposable 2oz condiment cups for drinks, sauces, all of it. All of it gets thrown in a tupperware they can grab out of the fridge and eat themselves.

  I really only made the kids when they'd come over eat 1 meal at the table with us. The rest they just grabbed whatever they wanted from the fridge.. and I made them eat outside at their table so if they spilled I'd just hose the whole area off haha.

My ketoade is like a mild lemonade I sip through the day. Get some small containers and measure out 1/4tsp salt for sodium; 1/2tsp lite salt for sodium/potassium; 1tsp magnesium citrate powder. Store them so you can reload a bottle each day. Get a nice water bottle that unscrews so you can dump in your mixture and add water; 1Tbsp lemon juice; sweetener if needed. Refrigerate and grab in the morning to drink throughout the day along with plain water, might want a couple bottles each day. It leaves room to get electrolytes in food, but ensures you get enough to not feel horrible if you can't get enough from meals. This is just most cost effective for me. You can leave out the magnesium if it makes you sleepy, and just take that at night - but I find drinking it in the day helps lessen irritation and crankiness.

Hah...I'd take a pic, but she's currently resting in it and pooping out her latest (snail) victim. Here's an Amazon link instead. Any plastic cup that floats should do, I guess, but these are easy to cut and I prefer a shallow depth.

On Amazon they go for $124 for 50 boxes. Normal pizza boxes go for $20 for 50. Easy to see why they haven't taken off when they are more than 6x more expensive.

I use 4 oz condiment cups. I keep the lids on when not in use.

Basically these except I get them at Smart and Final.

I’m Assuming you are paying a premium for that paper.

If you do a lot of smoking,

here is a great deal on Amazon.

I use this and it works great.

Some friends would get these water pouches intended for travel, and fill it with tequila before going on a cruise ship. As long as it is a clear alcohol, it goes undetected and you'll be able to keep your buzz going the entire trip, as well as a positive bank account balance!

> Except the ethics and stuff.

Isn't amazing how taking something out of context can completely change the intended meaning? I never said " Me only eating meat that I hunt is doing the same thing that a vegan diet would do." I said " Me only eating meat that I hunt is doing the same thing that a vegan diet would do, in terms of supply and demand." Of course hunting does not fit into a vegan diet. But it does have the same impact on the meat industry, because I am not buying meat. The money I spend on hunting goes to the government.

> I'm really surprised you haven't factored in the cost of the gun, the ammo, your time, lodging, equipment, processing, transport, refrigeration...

Most of these costs are 1 time payments. As a vegan, I am sure you have spent money on cooking equipment, like knifes, blenders, cutting boards, dishwashers, bowls, ect. that are not included in the actual cost of being vegan.

Still, to answer your question I will give you some price range ideas. Almost all of my things are hand-me-downs, but let's pretend you are a new hunter.

Gun: $250 This is for a basic gun, but this is a 1 time payment and can last many lifetimes if cleaned after every use.

Ammo: $15 20 rounds can last 2+ seasons. A hunter who is careful about shot placement will use 4 rounds or less per hunt. 2 hunts a year, 2 and a half years worth of ammo. Costs can also be cut down by reloading.

Time: Most hunters go hunting 2-3 days before the season starts to go camping. Hunting trips are more like camping trips than you realize. Most hunters, my self included, love to spend their time hunting. The time spent hunting is positive for most people.

Travel: If you are an out of state hunter, it gets costly, yes. In state hunting, travel can be extremely short. My elk camp is 6 hours away, so yeah there's that. But my deer hunting camp is literally 10 minutes from me.

Lodging: $91 Another 1 time purchase that can last 15+ years if treated correctly. This tent is plenty big enough for 2-3 people. In the case of my deer camp, I sleep at home, for free.

Equipment: Not sure what this means. I mean for knifes you can get dirt cheap ones any where. You could even use a kitchen knife. Food is typically the same price as it would be if I went to a grocery store to eat at home. Knifes are also 1 time purchase things.

Processing: $40 I mean, other than butcher paper and a meat grinder this is free. You can pay to have a butcher do it for you, but it is impracticable for cost savings.

Transport: Biggest cost really. Depends on where you are hunting. I mean you spend money on gas going camping or on a vacation, and since hunting is really just that, it doesn't really matter to me.

Refrigeration: I have 3 freezers, so this wasn't really a cost for me, but you can find cheap used fridges for less than $100. This is another 1 time purchase.

So all together: Less than $700 for all costs. These are all one time costs that only need to be payed for once. Let's say transportation is another $200 a year. That is still less than $1 per pound of meat. Obviously you are not successful every year, which I guess could add to costs, but the point of hunting isn't to kill something every year. It is to get out into the woods and make an attempt to feed your family.

I use the bevbag and it works pretty well. I also got the drink holder insert for it. If anything does spill it’s easy to rinse or wipe off.
