Debunks all those arguments that say eating healthy is too expensive.
Where the fuck do you live where a pound of chicken breast is 98 cents
Eating healthy is still less expensive than regular fast food
probably an upper middle class neighborhood. food is less expensive in fancy neighborhoods
healthy foods are not this cheap in the hood and im so tired of middle class white people acting like healthy eating is cheap & simple
come down to the “scary” part of town and shop for food and your perspective will change on some shit
This whole post is bullshit and these prices are exaggerated af
chicken breast by themselves are like almost 10 dollars wtf is this trash
Next time I go to the grocery store, I’m going to get the actual prices on all this stuff. You haven’t been able to eat “healthy” foods that cheap since the early 90′s.
Reblogging from self, yay! I made good on my threat and went to the grocery store. I chose items off the second “for about $20.00″ list. All of the items pictured are the cheapest I could find in the store (which is one of only two grocery stores in Wenatchee, unless you count WalMart, which is way on the other end of town). The nearest store is a ten-mile, fifteen minute drive from my house; getting to the WalMart is more like thirty.
96% lean ground beef not available
Price of broccoli was per pound, not per crown. The smallest I could find weighed a little over two pounds.
This is 8 ounces of cashews, not 16. 16 not available.
Total: $37.79
In summation: Bullshit. This post is bullshit, and I call bullshit on it.
I’m not a junk food eater myself, but I also don’t eat “healthy”, because I can’t afford it. This particular shopping trip would have taken over a quarter of my monthly budget, and kept me fed for less than a week. Imagine trying to feed a family like that. It’s not possible, unless you starve them all.
Before i even scrolled down, i was hollerin’.
Bless this post
^^^^^^^^^^^All of this!!!!! I’m vegan and I have to use coupons for dear life in order to feed myself, let alone if I had a family of 3 or more people. Yes it’s cheaper than eating fast food everyday, but people need to stop pushing this false narrative that healthy eating is easily accessible for everybody because it’s not.
I’m crying like, in my middle class neighborhood, even at Aldi you will not find healthy food for as cheap as the OP claims lmaooo
Also you can get a large pizza at papa John’s for only $10 if you pick up and that feds one person for two days.
