I haven't started, and Im already regretting this....

During my initial research phase I considered tuna as my main protein source. While I was checking out tuna at the grocery store I ran across a Chicken of the Sea can of Mackerel. The mackerel and tuna cost the same per unit weight so I decided to buy it to see if I could eat that instead of tuna. Little did I know what it looked like inside:

Keeping an open mind, I decided to give it a try. Turns out it tastes just as good as it looks... I eventually dropped tuna altogether and replaced it with the incredible edible egg. For 50 cents I could buy a can of tuna, or 5 eggs. The choice was clear.

Well the time to commence this experiment is fast approaching. After rigorous revisions of my food list I have finalized what I'll be eating for the next month:

I've left around a buck as contingency money. I've already bought the items above to get the ball rolling. However, it turns out I can't cook worth a crap. I was preparing rice for tommorow's lunch and what I ended up with was a paste like substance. Didn't taste great either. Due to limited supplies I will be enjoying the rice paste with tomato sauce tommorow for lunch. We'll see how that goes.

Another major hassle is that I drive to another city and stay there for the weekend. Therefore I'm going to have to haul the food back and forth every weekend.

I havent even started this experiment yet and Im already regretting it.
