How much do you spend (per head) on food per week?

Not in the UK.
My spouse and I eat different things so that accounts for some of it. I have to buy what she wants and what I want as well. For example, I don't eat potato chips and she doesn't eat tortillas. But I still have to buy both. That rule applies to just about everything. i've learned to cook my things in much smaller quantities, but a pan of enchiladas, for example, is still 4 meals for me and meanwhile I'm making her different meals. So we probably have a much bigger variety of foods available at any given time.

The things we do for love.
My spouse has a Cheetos addiction. I don't eat them. I will, on occasion, eat potato chips with French onion dip, but not very often, just not much of a junk food person. He likes Bleu cheese on some things (steak, salads) which I can't tolerate. I don't think blue stuff should be growing on food. I know that a lot of people like it. It doesn't sicken me to watch people eat it, just please, don't put it in my food.
That's pretty much it, the rest of our food tastes are very similar. He didn't think he liked salmon when I met him and for many years into our relationship he wouldn't eat it, so I didn't buy it. He liked the store bought smoked salmon in the packages and would eat it on bagels, so I started buying salmon filets and cooking it to put on bagels. He absolutely loves it now, and he will actually eat a salmon filet and salad as a dinner entree. It took about 20 years for him to come around!
