Stop saying it's too expensive to eat healthy! It's one of the most garbage excuses I have ever seen by land whales and their kin. When I was in college I heard that excuse a lot. I still hear it time to time from different people, in real life, and online.  Take the average person where I work, and take a look at their usual eating habits for lunch. They are usually going out for fast food. That usually means heavily processed "meat" between white bread buns, a drink, and some fries. So I'll put the usual amount spent per day conservatively at 8 bucks judging on what is near by and constantly consumed by staff. Think a combo and a drink. 5 days a week, that's what 40 bucks? I can take that 40 bucks, spread it out and cook up enough food for lunches for a week with some left over for consumption on the weekend. that's a lean protein, a veggie, a fruit, for each day's lunch. Depending upon tightly I am with the budget I can probably go into the 30 buck range easy. Online there are tons of recipes out there for how to eat healthy on a budget. It just means plan, budget, buy fresh foods, cook it up, spread it out. Once you get into the habit of cooking for yourself, you save a lot of money. It is not cheaper to over the week spend money on garbage when you can do your purchase early on in bulk and plan your shit out. Especially when fast foods are not filling! They are deprived of actual real nutrition. Filling yourself up with that garbage just means you will be hungry again very soon, and then goes the spending on snack and sodas and so on in between each major meal. So really there isn't much of an excuse for crying that it's too damn expensive. It's a bad excuse. I'll be damned if almost every one crying about how expensive it is to eat healthy has no problem blowing money on their vices, their sugary confections, and starch laden garbage. It's a damn stupid excuse and it would be dandy if fatties would stop singing it in their usual whalesong.
