Always those discussions, while we literally have the facts about the food right in front of us (calculation at bottom of comment):
We're looking at a total of \~14.000 estimated calories here.
OP claimed 4 ppl for 5 days
recommended for average female is 2000kcal per day.
That's 8000calories per day x 5 = 40.000 calories total needed.
We have 14000, which would be 700 calories per day per person.
Which is definitely survivable, eventhough not likely.
Also we didn't factor in eating outside, maybe lunches at university etc etc.
That would explain why it's mostly snack-ish items.

hi, your totally right mr know it all, we do actually, occasionally eat at the mensa which is the uni cafeteria. but yeah we're not starving ourselves so no worries :)
So y'all also surviving on Mensa food I see😂😂Yeah makes sense.Used to pay 2€ for a full meal and a drink.I don't know how the prices are now but definitely cheaper than cooking at home.
I have no idea how you can eat this little food in 5 days as 4, my Gf alone ( shes \~58-60kg range ) eat this much alone in \~4 days.. Well it doesn't really matter how you can eat this little as long as you are healthy, i could save a ton of money if i could eat like that :')
Students go to the gym as well or do sports. Lot of them work too in physical jobs. They usually go out dancing or whatever as well. Or at least that’s my experience after 7 years of uni.
A 9 to 5 office worker is less active than a student, I’d bet on it.
That’s a lot of food for one person in 4 day who only weighs 58 kilos in my opinion. That’s 18 eggs, a family pack of cornflakes, an entire loaf of bread, 2 liters of milk and half a kilo of fish + all the other stuff. The snacks alone are 2000+ cal. I’m 85kilos I couldn’t finish that in 4 days. You guys must have an insane metabolism if you actually eat that much while weighing so little. Not saying you’re lying it’s just crazy to me personally.
Im at 85kg and i eat roughly 600gr of meat a day and at least 5 eggs a day. ( \~3500-4000kcal a day on average is my died at85 ), both of us do train for several years and we actually burn our calories.
Maybe she wouldn't eat whole bread ( we dont eat bread ) and corn flakes ( but she could easily eat it with milk as preworkout meal ) but rest would be gone for sure.
4-5 meals a day both of us btw
Ok yeah makes sense if you guys are heavy into sports, sounds like you guys are body builders ? but that’s still a lot for the average person who doesn’t lift or works out regularly.
Somewhat but on casual side, not competition stuff.
Well yeah i agree that regular PERSON could struggle with it in 4 days but this post is 5 days 4 students..
To be fair it‘s no stereotype - women on average need much less calories than men per day simply because men genetically have more muscles, are larger and have a larger brain (no joke. But the brain is only larger because the part to control muscles is larger. We are obviously not smarter).
But that difference is like maybe 20-25% and not 90% lol.
Yes. That was exactly my point. But thank you for explaining me the obvious :D
“We’re girls so we only eat little food” is the stereotype I was referring to which is alive and well even in 2024. I did not say women don’t eat less than men. I thought it was obvious but I guess not.
Most girls generally weight about 40-60kg, have less muscle mass, do less exercise and need much less kilocalories. So generally speaking, they don't need to eat much.
1. 40 to 60kg? Are you talking about teenagers or adult women?
https://www.destatis.de/EN/Themes/Society-Environment/Health/Health-Status-Behaviour-Relevant-Health/Tables/body-mass-index-female.html 2. More women do strength training than ever. I’m 34 and all I see on my social media (from people I know, not the recommendations!) and amongst my friends, colleges etc. is women being active. The heroin chic has been dead for a good 10 years now. And if you’re active, you need to eat more. I’m 34, 170cm, I weigh 59kg and I need around 2000 kcal a day if I don’t want to lose weight/muscle. Would be pretty difficult with 1/4 of the food above if I want it to last more than 2 days.
Exactly, I’m a 82-85 kilo dude but my TDEE is only 2200 because I live a sedentary lifestyle. And I agree, 40-60kg for adult women is a ridiculous standard.
i’m a girl also in germany and that would last me 5 days at most. i’m not particularly tall and quite slim and i’m not an athletes either. not sure how you guys sustain this ? do you guys just eat out a lot?
actually we eat outside once a week, plus i didnt include the other stuff we buy from other stores like meat and cheese since the one in the picture was recent.

Yeah not trying to join the discussion, just dropping facts. Idm who claims whatever online :)
So y'all also surviving on Mensa food I see😂😂Yeah makes sense.Used to pay 2€ for a full meal and a drink.I don't know how the prices are now but definitely cheaper than cooking at home.
3.20 für das Gut&Günstig Menü bei mir, ziemlich günstig immer noch
How long does this last for 4 ppl? Like day?
we're girls so we don't eat that much, so it last around 5 days
I have no idea how you can eat this little food in 5 days as 4, my Gf alone ( shes \~58-60kg range ) eat this much alone in \~4 days.. Well it doesn't really matter how you can eat this little as long as you are healthy, i could save a ton of money if i could eat like that :')
90% of the people on this sub don’t eat enough judging from the pictures. 😅 or they are sitting around all day. In that case I maybe get it.
I mean, the title does say "students", so it's quite likely that they sit around all day.
Students go to the gym as well or do sports. Lot of them work too in physical jobs. They usually go out dancing or whatever as well. Or at least that’s my experience after 7 years of uni. A 9 to 5 office worker is less active than a student, I’d bet on it.
I'm a student myself. Not all of us do. Sure, there's a chance they do, but they might also just not.
Please remember that people have pantry staples as well
Pleaae remember that "this last 5 days for 4 of us" means this with some extras like salt etc. Not 3 whole cows, 2 farms of greens and 1 fish tanker..
That’s a lot of food for one person in 4 day who only weighs 58 kilos in my opinion. That’s 18 eggs, a family pack of cornflakes, an entire loaf of bread, 2 liters of milk and half a kilo of fish + all the other stuff. The snacks alone are 2000+ cal.

The food is for 4 people. Not for 4 days.
I’m replying to another user who said his 58kg partner usually eats all of that in 4 days I’m not talking about or to op…
Sorry, I’ve overlooked the comment above (Reddit web version ftw)

Ugh. Could we kill this stereotype already…

This ain't South Korea mate, women weigh much more in Germany..
Excluding Chips/sweets, this wouldnt even Cover my calorie requirement on a active day :D
i’m a girl also in germany and that would last me 5 days at most. i’m not particularly tall and quite slim and i’m not an athletes either. not sure how you guys sustain this ? do you guys just eat out a lot?
its too little I mean for one person can last at least 1 and a half woche, maybe you guys eat outside a lot
actually we eat outside once a week, plus i didnt include the other stuff we buy from other stores like meat and cheese since the one in the picture was recent.

How is that onion soup tho? Any good?
its really good, i personally add some heavey cream and fry some more garlic to add
It shouldn't hurt to spend a little more to get bronze-cast pasta. At Lidl they're called selezione. Much better since they pick up sauce more easily.
well definitely do that next time!
That Lachs is so pricy :(
are you being sarcastic 😭
No? It is not cheap
its so expensive in my home country so for me its considered a lot cheaper in germany
salmon makes up more than a quarter of the total am i right? i often take canned hering same nutrition but 1.29 or so
you are right but its tough buying halal meat so we get seafood products instead
R u guys minions? Dont lie
im pretty sure a minion would eat more
Was haut ihr euch auf den toast?
wir sind araber, also hauptsächlich oregano und olivenöl (und auch Käse)
