We generally average about $250 a week on food and a Costco trip every six to eight weeks that hits between $500 and $600. We've been shopping primarily at Aldi's & Trader Joe's because we go through so much fruit. A year ago, that $250 a week would actually last close to two weeks.

"After Eden is about what happens once you leave paradise. There's curiosity, a little temptation and sometimes a bit of chance."

Gasoline doesn't have a particularly high profit margin, which is partly why most gas stations double as convenience stores or offer fresh food. If chains like Buc-ee's and Sheetz can make more money by selling food, they can afford to lower their margins on gasoline.

Food waste in America is a significant and persistent problem that often goes unnoticed. According to a 2010 USDA study, 30-40% of our country's entire food supply winds up in landfills each year - almost 70 million tons.
