Day 8 ($0.95)

My pie chart is a little fatty today, because I discovered peanut butter.

For a little variety, I bought the ingredients for peanut butter and jelly sandwiches today. I don't know why I didn't think of it before. I really wanted high quality peanut butter and real fruit jam, but they would have been unaffordable.

It's the first time I've been to the grocery store since before the challenge started, and should have paid better attention. A loaf of store-brand wheat bread costs $0.10 cents more than white for a negligible difference in nutrition. Peanut butter is pretty calorie-dense and has a good bit of protein, but the fat content is surprising (25%DV from two tablespoons).
