Food spend monthly

Hi, next week i'll start a 2 month project that will require me to live in Nürnberg for two months. I've got almost evertything covered, but I will like to know how much will it cost for me the food. I'm going to cook my own food so I don't eat out everyday, since I have this option in my Airbnb. How much do you usually spend per month in food?

100 EUR per week and person

That depends on:

  • if you are vegetarian or not
  • how much you eat (different calorie need for a 45kg women without exercise than a 120kg man who does powerlifting)
  • what kind of food you eat.

Some people wrote 100 Euro a week and person, which seems rather high and it should be possible to spend less. But I would also recommend that amount, as having pasta with sauce 3x a week is not great.

Depends where you buy groceries. I spend about 100-120€ for food for one week (HelloFresh) and thats it as i only drink Tap water. But you could easily survive on 50€ per week if you buy smart and at more cheaper grocerie stores (avoid rewe and Edeka)

No need to avoid these stores, they have similar options like the discount supermarkets (Lidl, Aldi, Penny etc). I think the products are called „Ja“ at Rewe and „Gut und günstig“ at Edeka. But regarding to fresh fruits and vegetables, the discounters will be the best choice pricewise.
