What? Assuming 4 people eating 3 meals/day, $1000/month comes out to less than $3 per meal. That actually seems cheap to me.

Yeah... the food estimate is one of the things they got right, at least in my experience. Have four people living in our house right now and we spend about $250-300/week on food. All healthy stuff, I avoid a lot of canned food. That doesn't include eating out or desserts. If we didn't bother to deal hunt the costs would be even higher.
