From $995 cashmere blankets to food stamps?
GOOP mastermind Gwyneth Paltrow is drastically changing her lifestyle for one week, living on food stamps for the #FoodBankNYCChallenge.
That means the actress was only able to spend $29 for seven days’ worth of food.
Gwynnie posted a photo of her groceries on Twitter, including corn tortillas, eggs, an ear of corn, beans, onion, green onions, tomato, lettuce, kale, cilantro, a sweet potato, green peas, a garlic clove, an avocado and seven limes.
This is what $29 gets you at the grocery store—what families on SNAP (i.e. food stamps) have to live on for a week. pic.twitter.com/OZMPA3nxij

“We’re walking in their shoes to see how far we get,” she added in another Tweet.
The Oscar winner accepted the Food Bank challenge from celebrity chef Mario Batali.
