Food poverty ?

So I spent 210.69 on groceries Saturday. 2 adults and 2 under 2 yrs old who eat “normal food”. I had to go to the food bank today because we just cant keep this up. We are in a much better situation than most, but honestly I'm at 62 hours so far this week. Hubs is at 30. How did we get here? How am I working 16 hr shifts and not sleeping and STILL unable to afford life. How is this real? We both have good paying jobs. Degrees! I'm asking my boss for a raise this weekend. Got a list of accomplishments from the last 6 month's, but if he says why after the list I'm going to start sending the dude my grocery list for him to buy for me in exchange for less pay.
