How much do you spend on food per month?

Prompted by the Food Waste thread, how much money do you spend on food every month (per person in your household). By food I mean everything you eat or drink… My food expenses are second only to my house note, and I don’t think I spend that much on food. Maybe like $50/week/person so about $400-$500/month. Which I think is crazy that I spend over $5,000 a year on food!

Eat and drink easily 200 - 400 a week, pretty much eat out everymeal, and drink on Friday and Saturday nights at around 50-100 per night

Is this just groceries? Or are we adding dining out to the total?
If it's just groceries, then only about $20/week. But that number goes up to about $100/week if you want to add dining out.

According to Mint, my wife and I spent $391 in May on Food. This doesn't include travel food for trips which is in a different budget.

maybe $300-400 or so.
eat out at lunch every single say for free during the week, free breakfast at work, some free dinners. Actually like cooking rather than eating out in my free time, but will still eat out once each weekend on average.

Grocery store only (we rarely eat out)....
100 bucks a week for a family of two...me and the wife.
That = 400 a month.

I probably average about 1,500 a month on food, beer, and Old Charter.
