Cost of living and Create Food

I was searching about this subject and found this topic.

Dungeon Fantasy 2 says:

p. 4:
"Starving: If nobody succeeds, the GM can say “A week passes,” dock everyone $150 for cost of living, and let them try again."

p. 15:
"each week the party stays in town (at $150 apiece for food and lodging)" (emphasis added)

So food is clearly part of the $150/week cost to live in a town. So if a delver can use magic to create his own food (and it doesn't matter if it's delicious like Essential Food or just edible like Create Food), he won't spend as much as the other delver who needs to buy food.

The question is: How much of that $150/week is for food (the 3 meals per day) and how much is for lodging? The book doesn't say, but we can have an idea because DF1 (p. 23) says that Rations cost $2. That's a total of $6 per day and $42 per week.
