The Cost of Eating Healthy

Debunking Myths

It's a common myth that eating healthy is prohibitively expensive. While premium organic products and specialty health foods can be pricier, basic nutritious choices like fruits, vegetables, grains, and lean proteins often cost less per serving than processed and fast foods.

Understanding Grocery Spending

Grocery shopping without a plan often leads to overspending, especially when impulse buys take over. The real cost of eating isn't just in the price of the food but also in the wastage. Americans waste about a third of their food, equating to a significant portion of the grocery budget thrown away.
