Does this shatter the "Eating healthy is too expensive" myth?

Cause you're shopping at Whole Foods.  Honestly, you don't have to buy organic when it comes to fruits and veggies.  I mean, aren't they supposed to be healthy to begin with?

 

Non-Organic are coated with beeswax/resin to make them appear fresher. And the skin/rind is the the most nutrient rich part.

target frozen fruit section for you juicers. Sure it's processed more than likely but hey its better than McDonald's right?

Eggs are cheap. Eggs are healthy. Get you a dozen eggs and a slab of bacon for $5 total. That will last you a week.

Everyone is comparing apples to oranges.

Healthy restaurant food is more expenseive than non healthy restaurant food.

Healthy supermarket food is more expensive than non healthy supermarket food.

Healthy wholesale club food is more expensive than non healthy wholesale club food.

Thats how you eat healthy for cheap.

Nah. The thick chicken breasts at Kroger/Publix have 3 in them for like 6 bucks.

I eat 2 a day. So for 5 days I need 10. For 7 I need 14.

So that's 24 bucks I'm spending for 5 days. $30 if I want it to last a week. Then I gotta pick up brown rice, broccoli, & milk.

Costs more than McD's.
