Life / Average Food Bill in Poland - Family of 4 [7]
Our family (2 teenage kids, healthy appetites) spend about 350zl (70 pounds) a week on food and eat reasonably well - fish, chicken and vegetarian mainly, red meat at the weekend occasionally. Meat and veg are very cheap compared to the UK and the wife, being Polish, makes huge pots of rosół (soup) consisting of a lot of root vegetables, a turkey neck and some cheap cuts of beef. Eaten with noodles, it's pretty filling which cuts down on the need for a large main course.
Mind you, the wife being Polish means the cosmetics bill each month is a different story...
