Reference: USDA Thrifty Food Plan, August 2026, meals and snacks prepared at home. For ages 12 and above, we show the range across USDA's female and male rows, with its household-size adjustment. Local prices and individual needs can differ. This is a cost reference, not a prescribed diet or a benefit award. View USDA source.
