[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Prepared food is cheap. [b]Frozen food is cheap[/b]. Anything in a can or a jar or that contains tons of preservatives is cheaper, some aren't healthy. If that's what you are eating, of course you can spend even less than $500 a month for a family of 5. Fresh food and produce are expensive. For example, we never buy tomato in a jar or can. We only buy fresh tomatoes and grind it if needed. Same with beans. W[b]e buy fresh beans and cook it in a pressure cooker. Beans in a can are much cheaper but unhealthy. [/b]We don't buy it. Most people here that think $1k for a family of 2 is too much are probably not eating fresh. [/quote] You're generally correct, but the bolded is complete nonsense. [/quote] +1 And frozen produce is better quality health-wise and often taste wise than produce out of season or shipped from long distances (because it has to be picked before ripening).[/quote]
