People shocked after seeing what $100 of groceries gets you in Alaska

I suppose learning how to hunt for your own food might be a good option in Alaska...

With the cost of living crisis, many people are doing their best to make their money go further.

That could mean cutting back on unnecessary luxuries or trading in their car for a cheaper version, maybe holding off on making that big tech purchase for a few months in hopes of a price going down.

But most people can at least agree, food is a necessity - we all have to eat after all.

But a post on social media has got many hoping they don't have to move to Alaska any time soon.

Looking at the picture, they certainly didn’t go for anything extravagant, many have remarked this is what a food shop should look like if you are trying to cut costs.

In view are two cans of chicken broth, two cans of pinto beans, two cans of Chipotle Peppers, two cans of Minestrone, a bottle of avocado oil, restaurant style salsa, two packets of instant noodles, a 1lb bag of turkey breast, a dozen eggs and batch of Gatorade G Series Instant Powder Mix.

Many Reddit users were simply stunned at the cost of all the goods.

“The day I go to the store and have to pay that much for that little is the day I start looking for somewhere cheaper to live,” one user wrote.

“In Washington State thats $46.76 according to my store app,” commented another, while another remarked that in Aldi’s in Missouri that could be around $30 of food.

“Corporations have convinced a lot of people that their greed is actually the government’s fault, so they continue to raise prices astronomically while laughing as idiots blame Biden. All while they post record profits and get record bonuses,” another wrote.

“This is insanely high. I posted to someone else, but for $100 I got around 8 pounds of veggies and fruits, 15 pounds of meat, and other miscellaneous groceries,” commented a fourth person.

Other users continued to list roughly how much the same amount of groceries would get them in their home state. Some users insisted the original poster should consider growing his own food, learning to hunt or fish.

Which might not be a bad idea if spending over $100 only really gets you beans and sauce.
