  • Yesterday, I went to Win-co and bought

    1 bag small carrots.
    Head of lettuce
    Cantalope
    small onions
    Jalapeno peppers (I like to heat up my food)
    tomatoes
    califlower (1 head)
    Creamer
    1 bottle of fat free ranch

    So, I get to the checkout and it's over $31 bucks.

    Now for that, I could have bought

    3 bags of chips (On sale $1.66 ea)
    3 hobos at $4 each (The cheap type)
    Creamer
    Soda (1 12 pak)
    jar of mayo

    And it would have been cheaper then the stuff above.

    Puzzled why if it's supposed to be good for you, it costs
    more to eat that then the processede food. Oh well, just
    had a salad and now am considering seeing a shrink for
    this abberant behavior tongue

    Diets suck, but guess I'd better lose some weight starting this weekend.  >:(
  • 1 good for you salad 1 days worth for the same price as having, 3 juicy sammaches, a whole bag of chips, and drinks, even enough left over for dessert!!!
    The one good for you salad doesn't even include a drink sad i'll be thirsty and i'd be hungry again a half hour later.. BAAAHHHH

    Though i don't have a weight problem, i do need to start eating healthier.. but gosh i feel as though eating this healthy stuff gonna make us sick from starvation sad
    genenco.. fat free ranch taste awful sad

  • You are so correct.  I have volunteered for a food "pantry" on a weekly basis for a number of years.  I noticed long ago how FAT poor people were...which puzzled me.  But, a M.D. who volunteers with me stated that the cheap food is VERY high in fat and calories.  The good food (low in fat and calories) is very expensive.

  • I shop at Whole Foods Market-> Natural and Organic Grocery store,I call it-whole paycheck store!!!-Price is very high but they have amazing produces and products. Yup, eat fresh and live healthy... tongue

  • I am what you would call "pleasantly plump"-LOL. It is a fact that good food costs more. I have been making salads using spinach leaves before dinner to curb my appetite. I get a package of them for two bucks at Wal Mart and it lasts a good week. Carbos are cheaper but tend to put on the weight-believe me I know! I am trying to eat more fresh veggies-carrots are 89 cents at Wal Mart. I also am going to rejoin the gym! I lost 25 pounds going there but it got to expensive. I started walking and of course I saw a bob cat so now I am frightened to walk outside now... I need to stop with the excuses! Where is Richard Simmons when I need him?-LOL.

  • Trader Joes is the way to go: cheap, healthy, good.
    Discovered this place in college and haven't stopped shopping there since.

  • I love that cow picture with the lips-awesome!!!!

    Wooooooo thank you.------>>>

    I love Trader Joe's too!! Even there frozen meals to pop right in the oven are very good!

    Not sure if anyone has Whole Foods or if thats just based in Chicago. They have the absolute best organic produce and products anywhere. There is just one major prob....they are outrageous in price! I go there only for a special treat once in a blue moon. It does seem the healthier it is the more expensive to buy.

  • I may try WF, they are 6 miles from me. Trader Joes is farther, but I have never been in there..Of course, I think that's because of their ads where they seemed kind of  an "Elitist Type" of store tongue

  • lol  great pic wnanhee exclamation!!!!!!

    Heh Heh...thanks,girl! I was getting too tired of looking at my picture so I changed it. smiley
  • Geneco-
    Alot of the regular supermarkets have an organic section too. It is sometimes cheaper than going to the specialty stores.


  • I may try WF, they are 6 miles from me.


    Be prepared to dip into your savings...lol.
  • OH! I almost forgot to mention the best part about Trader Joes: ALCOHOL.
    Their wines and beers are fantastic. For your next party, I highly reccomend stocking up here-you will save a ton of money.  I dont drink much anymore BUT back in the day  wink I used to find amazing wines for 5-7$/bottle-no joke.

  • Trader Joes has wonderful selection of salads. One of my favorite is Southern Western Salad in the pk. costs $2.49. Green pea chips, pirates booties, Veggie chips....hmmmm I am forgetting something else... grin
