Nope. I'm aware of this. It depends what you get; I've done it. There are absolutely low cost, high nutritional options that don't require effort. Some of the cheapest frozen food is high in nutrition. You can get frozen chicken breasts cheap, not necessarily as cheap as fresh, but much less than the unhealthy options. Frozen vegtables are purchased on sale and cost 50c per serving. There's cans too. Carbs are easy. If you manage your kitchen correctly, you don't even need to go frozen. Honestly, even the "banquit"/healthy choice options aren't always that much, and can be worked into a healthy diet. Fruit isn't that expensive either, if you buy in the right season and don't get something exotic. I understand obesity is correlated with poverty, and don't blame anyone for it (I don't consider it their fault). The reality is that you can eat healthy on a budget, and nutritious food doesn't need to cost anything extra. Unfortunatly, many of these people are living in "food deserts" and good supermarkets aren't always available.
