Carnivore Diet: Eating Healthy on a Retirement Budget

I retired early a while ago. I set a budget of US$300 per month on all groceries, toiletries, and household items. Knock on wood, I have been keeping within my budget and using 100% grassfed and grass-finished beef. It isn't easy! I am limited to $5 per pound cuts that do not have hardly any waste. So I have been buying kidney, heart, tongue, sweetbreads, and ground beef. 

I had tried raw grassfed dairy for a few months, which was great for my budget, but I did not like that it caused my weight to be a few pounds heavier, and I got hungry. So i have quit buying dairy.

I also try to avoid pork, poultry, and eggs, since they are high in omega 6 fatty acids and if not given non-GMO feed, also high in glyphosate, which is incriminated in cancers and gut issues. So I avoid it.

When I can get them at the Asian grocery store, I enjoy wild-caught mackerel and saury. They are really fatty and succulent, under $5 per pound, high in vitamin D, and omega 3 fatty acids.

I just hope with rising prices and demand that I will be able to continue with my budget. I am still looking into raising my own meat, geese in particular, in the hopes they could live strictly off of grass and I could slaughter them myself.
