I was dumping half a box of pasta down the drain every week until I finally measured a single serving at my apartment in Tucson
Turns out 2 ounces of dry spaghetti is way less than I thought, so I started weighing it on the coffee scale my roommate left behind, and my grocery bill dropped about $22 a month, has anyone else found a kitchen habit that quietly saved them cash?
Serving sizes on the box are a joke, 2 oz of dry pasta is like nothing once it cooks. Been using a cheap food scale for everything now, rice, oats, whatever, and it's crazy how much longer stuff lasts. Meal planning on Sundays is the other one that did it for me, way less random takeout when I already know what's getting made.
