The Brown family, living in Riverview, Australia, can have a pretty lengthy grocery list especially if their daughter and her four children are living with them.  They spend the most money, $117.99, on meat, fish, and eggs. Buying 11 pounds of smoked ham, 10 pounds of silverside, or corned beef, and between 4-7 pounds each of minced meat, pork chops, sausages, steakettes, and chicken, this seems to be the biggest part of their diet.  They also bought rissoles, a typical Australian food, which is a mixture of meat and spices that are coated in breadcrumbs and then fried.  The family seemed to have a wide variety of grains and other starchy items, including 8.8 pounds of potatoes, three different types of bread, three types of cereal  two types of pasta, flour, and basmati rice.

                Almost all of the food they consume is fresh, which is why they purchased an extensive amount of fruits and vegetables. They seemed to buy a large amount of bananas, nectarines, and pumpkin.  The family also bought a wide variety of vegetables including carrots, onions, tomatoes, celery, and bell peppers.  They only spent $4.28 on prepared foods, which included Maggi instant beef noodles and Gravox gravy.  The only frozen foods the family bought were beef patties and fish fingers.

                Their diet seemed to be pretty healthy, except for the McDonalds the kids ate during the week.  Also, they bought several different types of soda and other unhealthy beverages. However, the only desserts and snacks the family bought were Smiths Chips, and rich tea biscuits, which are traditional English cookies.
