What do you mean by health food? I shop at TJ's, Kroger, and Walmart. Try to buy most of your food from the perimeter and watch for sales. Kroger always sends me coupons.0

Well, I shop at Aldis for the bulk of my groceries, Wal-Mart for dried beans and lentils that I can't get at Aldis, and Earth Fare for everything I can't get at either of those two stores. Mainly, TVP, nutritional yeast, and, protein powder. To me, my diet is very healthy.
What kinds of 'health food' are you talking about?0 -
I second Aldi, but I get my beans at a store that sells Caribbean/Latin@ food for about the same price as Wal-Mart. And I get lots of produce at the flea market.0

Health food or healthy food? Health food is usually expensive, healthy food usually inexpensive.0

Check out asian/ethnic grocery stores near you. The produce I've gotten at Chinese groceries have been excellent and very cheap. Like 1 lb of oyster or shiitake mushrooms for $2. Or apples for $0.69 per pound.0

how are you defining "health food" …
all food is health in the context of an overall diet that hits calorie/macro/micro goals...0 -
I don't know what you're looking for...Today I bought eggs, spinach, zucchini, peanut butter, rice cakes, chocolate, onion. All healthy. Nothing really expensive, except for the chocolate.0

I'd like to knoe the answer of "healthy food" from all the people asking for it.
Any health food store, but compare prices with Amazon, most of the times the stuff online is cheaper.0 -
Since switching to a healthy diet, I've actually found I'm spending les at the grocery store. I generally do my shopping at walmart and for a family of three I spend anywhere from 60-80 dollars on a normal week. Before I was spending over 100 dollars a week on junk foods. I typically purchase the same groceries and find different recipes using the foods. Lots of eggs, a large pack of chicken breasts, turkey burger, lean pork chops (fat trimmed), maybe a pork loin or turkey loin (we like them on the grill) a couple fresh veggies to eat early in the week and frozen veggies to keep our freezer full. I but low sugar oatmeal, snacks like Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, hummus with celery, mozzarella. I stay away from prepackaged meals due to the higher sodium and the fact that they are more costly. Hope this helps.0
