Because spirits arent alcoholic
According to this http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/magazine/4329323.stm, beer is less fattening than wine and spirits.
I always thought the reverse was true?

Ouch! I'm off to get myself a lettuce sandwich. With mayo. And cheese.
I don't miss meat... sniff... honest.
(yes I'm a veggie. for all sorts of reasons, efficiency of food production, health benefits, etc)

There are a lot of cheap cuts of meat that are actually very nice. Tomorrow I'm having Neck Fillet of lamb cooked slowly in the oven wrapped in tin foil with a lot of mint sauce for company. + Peas, + crinkle cut chips.
Reading the back of a 1L bottle of vodka i have here;
"Bottle holds on average 40 glasses"
"Approx 52 callories per 25ml glass"
So that's what.. 2000 ish callories?
Hahahah!!

Well usually you only drink spirits to get drunk. So lets assume the same is true with beer.
To get drunk on Vodka i would probably need 500ml which is aparently 52kcal per 25ml shot = 1042 kcal
To get drunk on Beer is would need about 7 pints which is apparently 193kcal per pint of fosters = 1351
So there is the maths. This is why girls still get beer bellies, just never anywhere near as bad as blokes!

Yes there's always plenty of roadkill around and I used to go hunting with an air rifle when times were hard.

A good steak costs about £5. I can get at loads of baking potatoes for £5

You could also get a higher quantity of other meats, for instance you could get a solid 2kg of mince for £5.
I don't know about that. Nuts are probably more expensive than steak per gram.
A little bag of salted peanuts from Tescos or what-have-you costs £1 or more.
