Healthy food was half as cheap as junk food and fast food America would be a hell of a lot healthier.

Thats all!!

    You sure are right with that one. The cheapest foods are the highest in fat, salt and lowest in nutrition! So many parents have told me they can only afford foods like Ramen noodles, boxed mac & cheese, hot dogs or chicken nuggets.
    Maybe they should start giving tax breaks for purchasing healthier food! :wink:
  • Fresh produce is right up there with being cheap (some anyway) it's just seen an inconvenient! But what's easier than peeling a banana or noshing on some baby carrots?

    Laziness is a HUGE downfall for modern man. (and woman)

    Or if you want really cheap fresh foods, grow them yourself if you can! I know that's not always possible, but if you have the space for it, you should have a garden. (Says the froggy who has no garen of her own! But I do harvest my MIL's all summer)
