[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is the OP. Wow. This has gone off the rails way faster than I thought it would. I absolutely do not think poor people are lazy, unmotivated, etc. I grew up poor. My family in Africa is poor. My family has the hardest working people I have ever met.

I think that it possible for the many of the working poor (of course not everyone in every circumstance) to eat healthier. If they don't, of course it doesn't mean they are lazy, unmotivated, or whatever judgment you would like to attribute to me. People have lots of things going on in their lives that they may not be able to control.

I am not poor anymore, but I can absolutely feed my family of 5 on $100 per week if we don't eat out.[/quote]

I get what you’re saying OP. I think teaching your kids to shop in season, budget, grow their own food, and cook everything from scratch are the best gifts you can give them. [/quote]

I think cooking from scratch is key. It doesn’t need to be fancy and mostly will be basic but can be done. No frills.
