The Duggars, the 23-person-strong reality television family from Arkansas, paid $614 for burgers and other items at a New York City eatery, it was reported by celebrity news website TMZ.

Jim Bob, wife Michelle, and 21 other family members went to Bill’s Bar & Burger in Manhattan and ate burgers, shakes, fries, nachos, and also got sodas.

It worked out to cost around $29 per person after several family members qualified for kids’ meal discounts.

The family stars in the “19 and Counting” reality show on TLC, referring to the number of children Jim Bob and Michelle have, starting in 2008.

Last year, the “Today Show” said it costs the family around $3,000 per month to feed the family, costing around $142 for each person.

This week, family member Josh Duggar said that the Duggars are expecting a third grandchild. “We’re expecting our 3rd child! Just announced on the @todayshow! We’re excited and blessed!!!” he tweeted.

“We’ve been throwing around name ideas and we are pretty certain we have it down to two … We will have to see,” Josh also told People magazine.
