In these trying economic times, this article stood out and now I ponder, can I eat for 67bucks a week? hmmm, I tried, but I will go pretty skimpy without my veggies or essential vitamins. I also would have to go without organic, nondairy cheeses, fresh vegetables, fruits, soy milk, (they are well, not cheap by litres), or those beans. Remember, beans aren't cheap at all by itself, you need the spices, that's expensive or else you will have a tasteless meal and don't forget the tomatoes.
I always want to cut the expenses, and do I ever, groceries will be the last few to be sacrificed. That is a luxury for the people below poverty??
There is a slideshow of Surprisingly Unhealthy Foods that includes: pasta salad, baked beans, California rolls, pretzels,and you can see more in the article. The article was a bit sad and self-doubting. The author would feel better if there are fruits, vegetables and healthy stuffs on her grocery carts. Yes, that is all good, but isn't balance diet the best bet? Are we a bit too entailed on our diets that we forget how to enjoy food how they suppose to be?
