To be honest, At our store (fred meyers) WA STATE, we can get 2DOZEN pack of eggs for only like 2.30$.... That's 24 EGGS.... U can get a huge watermelon for like 5$ that will last days..., Also I just bought the pack of ribs for 13$, HUGE PACK of fresh ribs, and it's like i've had it for dinner/lunch like the past 3-5 days... That stuff will stock up too, somone said it's good for 5-7days also!... If we keep it refrigated..

So really eating healthy is not expensive at all, im on financial aid for school and my mom still only makes i think 20,000/year and I am still healthy... so all you people saying healthy living is expensive.. go take a look at the dozen eggs for 1.50$ at my store......

U wanna pay 3.50$ for a big mac? or buy 3 1dozen eggs for like 4$ and feed u for a couple days ALONE..

it's your call really, so im sick of people saying eating healthy is EXPENSIVE.. rofl 2dozen eggs less then 3$, feed u for atleast 2days if you're a EGG person... lol but people spend 3.50$ for a big mac? you're kidding right? it's sickening

Eating healthy is expensive since you'll be buying fresh produce as well.
Eggs are cheap as are some cuts of meat, but if you start eating fresh produce then it becomes a bit more expensive.

Ribs/Watermelon/fruit is all cheap nowadays, now I guess you're that person that thinks healthy is expensive which I still find appauling..

Watermelons HUGE ones are literally like 5$ and can feed you alot, also there is alot more fruits then just watermelon that are cheap too..

That is so untrue. Eating healthy can be very cheap, just as long as you know what you're doing and don't buy processed food.
-Everyweek they are always specials on plenty of vegs, you can get em for cheap... also theres veg that are cheap all year round (cabbage, onions etc..)
-You can buy various cereals for cheap, rice, quinoa,barley, etc etc
-As for protein, theres a lot of cheap stuff, from beans to tofu to whatever meat is on special at your grocery store...

Depends on what you can eat and your lifestyle. I eat tons of rice and pasta because it's cheap but I don't work out so all those carbs are unhealthy for me.
I also eat oatmeal for breakfast everyday which really costs next to nothing.

Eating healty ain't expensive, of course, but it all depends on what you buy, where you buy it, etc. If you do it right, of course it shouldn't be expensive... and who said eating things that are not healty was cheap? 1$ for fucking Kraft Dinner... You almost need to eat 2 boxes to feel like you actually ate something, and I'm not fat, I'm 140 pounds 5'11''...

We All are not black And can not live off watermelon and ribs. Try to buy fresh veggies if u eat that. U should try to fry some chicken that's cheap



And reason why ppl buy fast food is they are too lazy to cookbook

I wouldn't mind eating healthily if I had the time to cook, prepare, and eat everything.
Oh and also if I wasn't afraid of grocery shopping alone and stuff like that.
