I was looking at veg boxes and came across this one... but it says it feeds 6 people for a week! Am I just a massive biffa, because I would really, really struggle to feed 6 people all week on that or even close to that.

2kg white Potatoes, 2kg washed baby Potatoes, 1kg Brown Onions, 1kg Carrots

Plus:

500g Runner Beans
200g Baby Spinach
500g Beetroot
500g Mixed Cherry Tomatoes
500g Courgettes
500g Broccoli

You may have to integrate something like 'cornflakes' and 'chicken' to stretch it out a bit.

Sounds reasonable to me. I'd probably eat more random veg and carrots over a six week period, but I eat less than a quarter of those potatoes over the same period. Bulk each meal out with spuds and you'll be fine.

Rice and beans, they're always doing it on that jungle programme.

One of your burgers would probably do it.
