74. where are all these expensive fresh vegetables?
it's a myth.

a bag of potatos costs how much where you live?

a bag of onions?

a head of lettuce?

a bag of tomatos, apples? whole celery, carrots?

Excuses. Cooking requires effort. Nutrition requires effort. Nobody is going to hand anyone a lovely healthy body at the drive through. Green veggies, bags of in season fruit, Rice, beans, onions, sausage, whole chicken, untrimmed briskets & tough roasts, milk, flour, butter, potatos. Skip the sodas. Skip the burger. Skip the chips. Skip the wonderbread. Skip the watery canned goo.

If you take that crap OUT of your grocery basket, suddenly the real food is perfectly affordable. If you think you can't live without sodas & chips, of course you would find a bag of apples for two bucks outrageous. Why you could buy a whole nother bag of chips for that.
