> “I thought I could handle eating and shopping,” she said, “but lunch put me over the top.”

If lunch put her over the top as she says, why did she buy a $21 lunch? The Ice Tea probably cost at least $3.50.

Let's be real, there weren't two extra meals in those leftovers.

It also mentions she won't eat free meals because she considers them unhealthy and eats non-bulk organic groceries...which is typically quite expensive. I guess people consider stuff like that part of their identity?

To be fair, it's for three meals. $7.12 per meal is pretty good for restaurant food.

She's splitting it into three meals.
