Budget calculator
Public data is used for food-cost context only. The working grocery estimate is built from editorial assumptions and should be checked against local store prices.
Methodology
The calculator references public food-threshold context but uses clearly labeled editorial assumptions for practical grocery planning.
Region and budget mode adjust a per-person cooked-meal estimate, then scale by household size and meals per week.
The output is intended for planning and comparison, not as a nutrition, poverty, or official price benchmark.
Update log
