[Show us your Shopping List!]

I think this is a really good topic post! Being a student, it would be great to know the best "bang for your buck" type shopping list. 

I'd be quite interested in improving my own shopping list by looking at others.

I have never read or looked into improving my diet, this is just what feels right for me at the moment!

Here is my weekly list:

Protein:

• Minced beef
• Two breaded cod fillets
• 8 pack of bacon
• 4 x chicken breasts 

Fruit/Veg:

• Bananas 
• Apples 
• Onions 
• Frozen mixed vegetables

Dairy/breakfast:

• Cream
• Milk
• Granola 

Carbs:

• Spaghetti 
• Tagliatelle 
• Ravioli
• Oven chips
• White Rice
• Brown seeded Bread

Other stuff:

• Honey
• Activia yoghurts 
• Honey roasted ham 
• Dolmio sauce
• Tikka masala sauce 
• A backet of biscuits (usually hobnobs - I love them!)
• Breakfast biscuits for snacks
• Soreen Malt loaf

So that's roughly what I buy weekly, some things like the pastas carry over into the next week and sometimes meats if I don't eat as much but I train at least 6 times a week with triathlon so I usually do! 

I'd love it if someone knows any improvements I could make, Thanks!

What's your budget each time you go shopping? As a student as well I like to keep mine down to £25 a week. 

Are you British? If this is the case, which is your favourite supermarket(s)? I go to mostly Sainsburys and sometimes Aldi!

This is something I really want to know you folk's opinions on; what is the 'Ultimate Shopping List?' 

What I mean by 'Ultimate' is both Healthy and Affordable. There are some key nutrients we need as human beings, and I want to know the best products you can get from the supermarket on your weekly grocery shop. 

My current list here is inspired from the book Rich Food, Poor Food, by Jayson and Mira Calton:

-Organic, raw milk and butter

-Organic Meat

-Wild caught tuna/salmon

-Local, organic produce (vegetables and eggs)

-Sea salt

-Olive Oil

-Brown Mustard

-Zughetti/Wheat-free Pasta

-White Rice

-Dark chocolate/crisps

-Pure juice not from concentrate

-Herbal Tea

-Organic Porridge

What's your Grocery List?

[Polyamory - Our Future In Relationships?]

Has anyone read 'Sex At Dawn?' This book goes into a lot of detail about how prehistoric humans were in fact polyamerous. 

[Nofap And The Effects Of Porn, Masturbation And Abstinence]

Thanks for sharing the NoFap video. It's right in that porn is very much an instant gratification thing, and takes a lot less effort than actually attracting women and having sex with them. 

It's so easy to skip straight to the rewards without seeing all the hard work that is put in to get them.

[A question of Faith: Do you need to believe in Enlightenment to pursue it?]

Ah so it's a need!

[A question of Faith: Do you need to believe in Enlightenment to pursue it?]

So desire rather than 'trust in'?

[A question of Faith: Do you need to believe in Enlightenment to pursue it?]

One thing that's constantly been nagging me in pursuing no-self is this question; 'In order to become enlightened, do I need to have so called 'faith' in it becoming a real possibility in my life?' Can anyone offer any insights?
