Food at home: $3465 or 7%

Food away from home: $2668 or 5.4%

Astounding. That's almost a 1:1 ration.
It just occurred to me how simply the ERE pie would be. There would basically be only two colors: housing and food.

I think Jacob should make a pie! and anyone else who would like to. I'm sure it would be interesting =)
