Would I be an asshole for meal prepping for myself? Context below

We’ve sometimes had to use the food bank here and there but we did get approved for food stamps BUT it’s only 250 when we have a family of 5 two adults 3 under 4. My man isn’t home let’s say every other week for work and he’s paid for food but he still needs to use his own money. I feel like an asshole if I did my own thing although it could be fine, just the chances if we struggle at all I know I could use the meal preps but would feel like an ass for doing it first place🤷🏻‍♀️

Me and my husband separately meal prep majority of the time. I don't see why you think it would be an issue.

@Ella I guess I’m afraid of feeling selfish since we’ve been really low before and I wouldn’t mind of course just giving us all my prepped if we did again but I would feel bad I even separated it for own in the first place, if that makes sense

I think your worries are a product of food insecurity. Food prep will probably be really helpful for you. Go for it!

Maybe talk with him about it?
