From the Health Dept:

Did you know eating healthy is expensive? Did you also know that eating like crap is cheap? This goes completly against conventiontal wisdom that tells us snacking is cheap and eating healthy is common sense fruits and vegetables is cheap. You remember the commercials growing up: For the cost of one candy bar you can buy one apple. Ok, so that's the apple.



You can eat processed crap food for about 1/3 the cost of real food. I know this because this is what I have been doing for a long time. Since I have decided to start eating right, my grocery bill has doubled. Yet I am not buying extravagent items either, which is what you may be thinking. I am buying more vegetables canned and fresh, fruit, and meats. These things I rarely bought since moving to NY.



Being the typical college student I've been living off "living on reds and vitamin C and cocaine". Oh wait, that was the greatfull dead. Actually I've been living off a lot of pasta and cheap pizza with a little beer.

A whole lot of empty carbs, speaking of carbs



Here's what foamy has to say about carbs.

So, what does all this mean? I dunno, other then it seems it's more expensive to stay healthy then not healthy and something about that doesn't sit quite right with me.
