We just don’t seem to put as much emphasis on buying and eating good, whole food as we do put an emphasis on other things. Your average person can find $$$ for relaxation, to go have fun, take vacations, pay for cable tv or a satellite dish, buy nice clothes, drive nice cars…but we can’t be bothered making the time to cook things from scratch or make healthy choices when we buy our food.

In this day and age of “enlightenment” about health and well-being, you’d THINK there’d be more of a push to go natural, go healthy, go real?
I know there’s always been a “get healthy” movement but it’s not mainstream. Eating properly should be a bigger priority across the board, regardless of age, race or income.
I cannot speak for the rest of the country but in my area of the Midwest, unfortunately it seems to be MUCH cheaper to eat garbage than it is to eat healthy and natural foods…something needs to be done about that.
