The things you describe aren't all cheap in every part of the country. Some parts of the country actually have somewhat limited access to fresh vegetables/meat or have to pay a premium for it.
- ev1 5y ago+1 to this, I'd have to go out of my way, significantly, to find those items for cheap, while fast food is $3 for a calorie-dense burger and easily accessible. Of course, there are nearby supermarkets too, but you'll be paying like $10/lb for raw chicken and everything is "organic"
- refurb 5y agoYou’re upset that you have to make healthy choices?
- ev1 5y agoI'm kind of using I in third person - it's cheaper, more accessible, easier, faster to get unhealthy food. For many people it is not possible or feasible to make those healthy choices. For example, extensive - both in time and money - travel time to cheaper supermarkets (vs something like Whole Foods) to be able to afford fresh ingredients. There's also the part where working multiple jobs might make it difficult to make it to a proper market before they close, while fast food is nearly universal and available all day and all night.
