It can, in most cases, be less expensive to eat healthy. The studies that meta-study are based off of seem inherently flawed. It's discussing how diets rich in produce are more expensive than ones full of meat and stuff. Meats are WAY more expensive than vegetables when purchased as ingredients, that's not up for debate. I don't know what mathematical hoops they jumped through to put it together, but I'd be really interested to see the actual data for it, because it seems like they're going based on prepared meals rather than straight ingredients. I.e. "McDonalds is cheaper than Whole Foods' food bar" which is kind of a stupid message to be sending when the problem could be solved by people just buying ingredients and cooking from scratch. --- AKA Level 36 ForestWanderer / ObjectiveLogic http://www.poorcouplesfoodguide.com - Pizza Time! ...
