    W/no money I'd say you'd have to steal food.

    Or eat at your friend's houses.

    i was in this situation about a year ago...first of all, super wal-mart is your friend! here is a list i came up with while reminiscing:

    poor boy/girl top 6 (can't afford to have 10):

    1. eggs (bought in bulk, 5 dozen) - $4.11 (thats about 7 cents an egg)
    2. tuna (chunk light, wal mart brand of course) - $.40 a can
    3. oatmeal (WM brand) - $1.76 per 42oz canister (about 32 1/2c svgs)
    4. brown rice - $.80 per 16oz bag (makes a sh*tload)
    5. natural peanut butter (WM brand, its pretty nasty...but you need some sort of healthy fats) $1.70 -or- mixed nuts...but i forgot the price
    6. frozen broccoli cuts (WM brand) - $2.50 (big ass bag)

    i lived off of that list for 4 months. i saved $$ and dropped my BF around 10%...so it was definitely a blessing in disguise
