My GF and I spend $400 - $450 a month on groceries and typical household supplies (paper towel, TP, detergent, soap, Swiffer, shampoo, toothpaste, etc...)
We do purchase "fancy" foods like: steak, salmon, shrimp, whole chickens, chicken breasts, fresh produce (all organic/non-hormone when ever possible)
We prepare all our own meals for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. We avoid processed and preserved foods at all cost. Don't get me started on chemical/laboratory foods.
If you eat healthy, and not out-of-box freezer food, then I would say that $200 a month per person is accurate.
Edit: this does NOT include beer. I spend quite a bit on beer. Prob $100 a month (Canadian Prices) we cant get beer at grocery stores in Ontario Canada. soon though, soon
