No Wonder My Food Bill's So High!

I just had to post this post from a blog that I enjoy reading.

Basically? According to a study done recently, it costs WAY more to eat healthy than not. The numbers are scary. I keep wondering why our grocery bill has more than doubled in the last few years. Now I know. Of course there are exceptions and ways to ease the pain, but it's still gonna cost more.

Having said that...my addiction to diet pop, especially cola, isn't helping our food bill. Considering there's no nutritional value in it and my husband doesn't drink it...it's like a non-value added service. Necessary because it helps me not pig out at night, but costing money. So, I will eventually try to cut it out. Especially cuz it's chemically laden. But not today.

Interesting.

  3. yeah, our bill is up too! stinks that our government is talking about how we all need to loose weight but there is really no true support for that!

    I stock up on my favorite diet soda when it goes on sale and we recycle the cans for $$$ so it makes it a little less painful!
