      Why don't you relocate to Ghana or another African country? I live in Africa, 99% of the population dreams of getting out of there, even the rich help their kids settle in the West. It all looks fun, but they have terrible problems like corruption at all levels and major dishonesty issues embedded in then mentality. Ghanaian women love twisting things and creating a scandal out of nothing.

Even now with inflation and rising food prices, I just did my grocery shopping for 5 people for 2 weeks and spent $97.17. Before the prices went up I would spend between $55.00-$65.00 every 2 weeks.

    I love how much in common our counties have despite being so far away! The herring, the currency being almost 1 = 1, the cost of some of the things (like onion) being very similar. What we don't have are fun markets, instead it is all the same 3 stores everywhere with the same expensive food (except onion and potatoes because they grow well here). Only one cedi for so many peppers was a shock! They must grow well in Ghana! Here in Sweden they are not grown commercially, but imported. Although many people with warm and sunny windows grow them for themselves indoors. Ghana seems like a lovely place, and the people kind and generous. I was once fed by my Ghanian neighbours, they made the most delicious grilled chicken. Thinking about it, I actually gave them a chilli plant as thanks, haha!

      You definitely need to be a clever shopper. While it's growing season, try to find a farm stand in someone's yard, or a free farmers' market where the people who sell don't have to pay a fee. That keeps your cost down.
      Buy meat on sale in big packages and divide it at home. Don't buy only what your recipe calls for, on the day you are cooking; you'll pay more. When you're cooking with meat, use it like Tatiana uses her dried fish: for flavor. Make legumes (peanuts in this case) and rice the bulk of the meal. Beans, peas, lentils, etc, are tasty and satisfying. Potatoes are inexpensive, but get sweet potatoes if you have a choice; they're more nutritious.
      Rice is pretty affordable. Peanut butter and tomato paste, buy the cheapest kind; the cost is in the packaging. Don't pay for the name brand. You can't eat a name.
      Try to avoid depending on wheat and corn; they will leave you empty and unsatisfied and you'll eat more.
      Over time, you learn....
