That's entirely plausible. I've almost never had a point where I was responsible for feeding myself and had access to buying groceries --I've either been at home, nomading it (at which point I don't generally have the space to store anything more than a couple things, so I eat a lot of quick food or eat out.), or been on the meal plan.
Roommates and I haven't even begun to discuss shared food versus personal food, and whether or not we'll have regular communal meals or how that'll work. I don't know, maybe I should write out a week's worth of groceries and spend an hour in the grocery store finding out how much that costs me.
You're also _really_ good at using coupons and sales, and otherwise getting a bargain for food and stuff. I'd like to be better, but a little is getting into the habit, and I just haven't gotten there yet.
