Is 800 dolar per month enough for healthy groceries in USA?

You mean to ask if spending $800 solely on food is enough?

Unless you eat fruit and vegetable coated in gold leaves, that kind of money is plenty. The internet tells me the following about price of vegetables in the US:

"The average price of generic vegetables in the United States sits around $2.58 per pound ($5.69 per kg). However, prices vary drastically depending on the specific vegetable, its form (fresh, frozen, or canned), and recent weather impacts. Due to seasonal changes and weather disruptions—such as severe freezes in major growing regions like Florida—fresh vegetable prices have experienced a 10% increase year-over-year.

Local fresh fruit in the US generally costs between $0.30 and $4.00 per pound, though most common locally grown varieties average between $1.00 and $2.50 per pound

I am not involving canned food, junk food or anything unhealthy like sweets but I would say that based on the data above, $800 will last you more than a month.

That is nearly 200 per week. That is more than enough if you are smart.

But remember i will eat healthy, like organic veggies and fruits
