I think I was told No, that it had to be separate reciept. I would suggest that you ask Tom Copeland at
www.tomcopeland.com, he will know for sure.
For me though, I just deduct the meals not groceries. All my groceries are used for DC and my family, if I didn't do it this way I would have double open things like ketchup and things like milk would spoil.

I use the standard meal deductions. It works out to more of a deduction than actual cost.
But your cleaning supplies, toilet paper, papertowels, windex etc that you also buy on your grocery receipts is all deductible according to your time space percentage.

I do this, then photocopy/scan the receipts weekly.
I spend more on food than standard deduction. I don't need time/space because I have separate everything so I HAVE to buy two. Everything for DC is exclusive DC use, so it works well for me. HTH!
