Many people are cost-conscious living the grain-free Wheat Belly and Undoctored lifestyles. Because we prefer to choose higher quality foods–organic, pasture-fed, without synthetic ingredients like emulsifying agents or cheap fillers–we risk running up our grocery bills. (Recall, however, that our greater exposure to more costly foods is counterbalanced by the reduction in appetite we experience, i.e., typically 400-800 fewer calories per day per person that you no longer need to purchase and prepare, a substantial cost savings.)
The Big Box stores such as Costco, Sam’s Club, and BJ’s Wholesale Club carry many of our staples that further help keep our costs down. I recently polled our social media readership to show us what products they’ve found in these stores to help you save money, as well as provide some convenience in sparing you the effort to go from store to store to find the foods we need. Among the finds of our readers:
Katelyn: “I love the Chosen Foods mayo for chicken salad…organic chicken, celery, onion, and mayo, pulsed in the food processor, stuffed into tomatoes for a yummy lunch. Bought at Costco.”
Leona: “Love all your Wheat Belly books, which I bought at Costco. These are just a few things I’ve bought. The Spring Mix is used for our salads, the Coconut Oil is almost gone. Use it all the time for cooking instead of butter and use it as a face and body lotion. The Whisps are a great snack by itself or used in salads or instead of a cracker, so good! The Olive Oil is used for sauteing veggies, salads and I give to my cats mixed in their food. No fleas or hairball for my cats!”
Melissa: “Costco, Henderson, Nevada. We get all of our frozen organic veggies, organic meats & organic chicken from Costco.”
Stacey: “Costco is always the best place to buy avocados for the ‘snack’ bowl, not to mention avocado oil.”
Marcella: “Cooking, smoothies, stir fry, and snacks from Costco. Yum!”
Christine: “Many items, but this is my favorite from Sam’s Club, Pederson’s 40 oz bacon $19.99 ingredients: Pork, water, Less than 2% of: Salt, Vinegar, Celery Powder. In two convenient 20 oz. packs.”
Rosa: “Some of my staples from Sam’s Club.”
