if you had only $5.00 to feed you family for a week, what would you feed them. there is no other food in the house, and you can't eat at the neighbors house. so what are you going to eat. you can't eat the family pet either. noway

Mac and cheese. Skip the butter and use milk... sparingly.

Yes! Exactly. I've been there in my life before. I would either take a can of tuna or cut up some hot dogs and mix it in for a special treat.

i'm not starving here, just wanted to see what you would buy. yes a bag of rice or potato's will feed a family for a week. peanut butter, jelly and a loaf of beard also goes a long way.

another good choice, but i think you might starve to death waiting on the plants to produce.

Take the family to Pizza hut. After I order a large pizza to dine in and one go, the waitress will bring the plates. When she leaves slip a dead **** roach in between the plate #1 and #2. When she comes back and begins to serve the pizza she picks up plate #1 and there is the dead roach. Everyone freaks out and they will comp the pizza plus the one you ordered to go. Many pizza huts here so I could make this work for a week and still have my 5 bucks.
