This week’s grocery haul is a little different.

Instead of shopping from my usual list, I used a 1933 A&P weekly menu that claimed it could feed a family of four for $11–$13 a week.

So… could we recreate it today?

In this video I:
• Walk through the original 1933 menu
• Shop for the ingredients in a modern grocery store
• Compare prices then vs. now
• And talk about what this tells us about food, inflation, and how families used to eat

Some of the meals surprised me. Some made perfect sense. And some… We’ll see.

Let me know — would you try eating from a 1930s weekly menu?
