I did some cogitating and some price-inspecting today in preparation for putting together the Funky-Fresh Food Report, which I hope will prove my hypothesis that unhealthy processed food is cheaper than healthy fresh food. It's all in response to a discussion begun by Andrei in this post about America's obesity problem.
Might as well get some full disclosure out of the way now: I was fat, fat, fat as a kid. (I grew out of my weight.) Knowing that, take a look at my last name and see how long it takes you to find a way to tease me with it. Won't be long. Go ahead and post your guess as a comment; I'm way (twitch) past (snarl) all (growl) that (twitch) now.

Unhealthy processed food may be cheaper to eat now,but you are going to make up for it in medical bills and supplies or what have you (tums,ex lax, remedies to boost your immune system, all add up. expensive, expensive, expensive). Then you'll be sitting in a hospital bed eating bad expensive healthy hospital food.
ReplyDeleteJust price compare, that honkin slab of beef may be expensive this week, but might be on sale the next week. Buy in bulk and freeze, or buy the slab, eat half of it now and freeze the other half for later. Can't do that with a 99 cent hamburger the size of a half dollar.
