Post Jonny Bowden: Good Food More Expensive?

A new study published in the Journal of the American Dietetic Assocation- not an organization I'm usually very fond of- has found that healthy food is becoming more expensive nationally, while junk food is becoming cheaper.

The average price of the lowest-calorie foods- like, for example, tomatoes, berries and green veggies- went up by almost 20 percent over 2 years. Meanwhile, there was a slight dip in the cost of potato chips, cookies and candy.

I have been buying more canned fruits and vegetables lately because of the expense. For me it's better then buying junk then doing without.

i think that's a good idea, heather, and i often mix it up myself. some fresh, some canned.

unfortunately, i think there is a lot of truth to that...the cheapest stuff is NOT often the best for you...
