But I loved it. Also this has Shrimp removed, because it was on the OG chart due to an error and this is an updated version.

So where is "bag of sugar" on this chart?

Let's find out!

Cheapest per ounce sugar on walmart.com

6,810 calories, or 2k calories per dollar. So it'd be hanging around brown rice as one of the cheapest options.

Haha I mean brown rice is cheaper! And buying flour then making baked goods is cheaper! Do not embrace the dark side!
