The basket cost, too

The calculator gives you the cost of what you used. The basket cost is simpler and ruder: add up the full price of every package on the shopping list. A recipe can be gentle per serving and still need a forty dollar basket the first time. Both numbers matter, which is why every recipe here shows both.
