Gwyneth Paltrow has confessed that she is very bad at being poor as she miserably failed to survive on 29 dollars a week like any other poor person and had chicken.

The 'Iron Man' actress gave herself a C minus and posted on her website 'Goop' that she was able to made the stamp food challenge only for 4 days as she couldn't resist to have chicken and half a bag of black licorice, TMZ.com reported.

The 42-year-old actress also admitted that its actually difficult to eat wholesome, nutritious food on a small budget, even for few days, although this life is lived by 47 million Americans every day, week, and year.

Paltrow initially bought cilantro, avocados, scallions, kale and limes to fulfil her needs for a week, but these were not exactly the staple of the needy.
