I'm in a 'budgeting' group. I've posted many recipes in the past. But on one recently someone said it's stupid to list the cost of the ingredient used not the cost of the pack since you need to buy the whole pack. A few people jumped on saying yes it is very misleading and unfair to people that truly are on a budget.
Yes you do need to buy the whole pack but it's not like you throw out the rest once you are done!
E.g. the 1tbsp of curry powder needed for the whole recipe is 20c, whole tub €1. But I will not throw out the rest of the tub. I will use it again. Same with all the ingredients I use.
What do you think?
YABU - It is unfair to list the cost of the amount used and you should list the full cost of the ingredient
YANBU - It is normal to list just the cost of the amount of the ingredient used
