so as was instructed by fellow travelling inspectors at my company, supermarkets are the key to optimizing your $60 per day allowance to spend on food. it allows you to pack lunches and finish inspections quicker, and it also lets you eat healthier, letting you avoid the chains and what not.
as you may know, the gold standard in supermarkets is Whole Foods. i found the nearest Whole Foods to my apartment and made sure to get over there as soon as i could.
