Sure, though the subsistence farmers probably are. In any case, the US
could have kitchens that provide oatmeal ($0.70/lb in 50 lb bags), rice ($0.50/lb), and beans ($0.70/lb), which will get you 2,000 calories for about $0.75 ($0.53 in 2004). Cooking will add a little bit for fuel, first-world wages for food preparation workers will add more, but keeping it under $0.83 isn't that exotic.
