What should be budgeted for snacks and quick service (Lunch & Dinner) per person/day?

Details:
We are staying off-property, so breakfast is not an issue and dining plans not an option.
The "we" is myself and my 18-yr old niece. Neither of us are over-indulgent, but we don't eat like sparrows either. Snacks would be a minimum one or 2 treats :bar:

Snacks are $3-4 each. Lunch is usually around $10-12 and dinner is $15-30/person (for most TS restaurants, if you eat CS for supper, too, it'd be the same as lunch )

There is another Disney site that's all about ears, *hint hint,* that has current menus and prices, if you really want an exact answer. My family of 5 eats like a family of 2.5, and we just did a CS-only trip with no breakfast and no snacks. We ate easily for $80 a day, on average.

We do mostly cs with a ts lunch every other day. We budget $40/ per person per day.

Another good resource for park and resorts specific menus with exact prices is touring plans. That way you can build your daily itinerary and pick where you would like to eat and price it out instead of ball parking or guessing.

I always budget $50.00 per day on food. Most days I'm under budget but I'd rather have "extra" money left over each day.

Sounds like $40-$50 per person. Thanks for the info everyone!
