I suspect you underestimate how much you spend on food, most people do. Whenever this conversation comes up with my friends I always spend over double what they claim. I trust my estimation much more since I actually have records through splitwise on how much I have spent on groceries for each month. Maybe you should do an experiment to see how much you are really spending.

We actually did exactly that, and this 500 figure is a high-point.

I took the September groceries and checked, and we are at.. -462,11 €

So yeah, it's an actual figure.

I think people would notice if their checks bounced because they are spending more than their income each month.

$18K per year on groceries is insane. Yes, some people go with their families to restaurants and bars >1 week, but people who don't go, know they don't.
