I am in a constant state of annoyance with that standard.
Fast, convenient foods are dirt cheap, and the healthy stuff is expensive as hell.
Even fruit and vegetables are crazy expensive.
So it has come to pass that in order to eat food that won't slowly murder you, first you must be wealthy enough to afford it on a regular basis.
It maddens me.
Also, this is why you see impoverish people who are quite obese.
The food they manage to afford is garbage fast food and pop (soda for you Murikans).
So now they are not only impoverish, but rife with medical problems thanks to their shitty diets.
I found a list the other day that rambled off a bunch of nutrition facts and one of them was that something like eighty five percent of all Americans are dehydrated most of the time because they just drink pop and sugary juice instead of water.
I went to Jamaica last week for a buddy's wedding and there were Americans around.
I was talking to a few of them and they weren't drinking any water but complaining about being dehydrated.
When I asked them why they didn't just drink some water they said they were good, they had travel mugs full of Coke.
The moral of my rant is, I sometimes go off on rants and don't realize it until I have written a paragraph in which I cover three of four different topics.
I grow several large gardens to accommodate my not wanting to eat garbage all the time.
So, provided you aren't way up North, you should consider doing the same.
Its cheaper and you know where the food came from.
