Nah....you'll just have to stand in the soup line for the last month. Sheesh, you must be stocking up on Kraft macaroni and cheese (40 grams of salt per serving! Ugh.). 300/month for food? Wow. Tight budget there. I just blew $65 for lunch with a friend today at Fred's in mid-town. If you truly wish to hedge a four month food shortage, you many want to throw more money at home security budget...maybe even an oil-filled moat...to keep those loving, Christian, though starving neighbors away.
