Healthy eating is very cheap. You can do a few dollars a meal for veggies and legumes or beans and rice.
I agree with you. It's just that many people have been conditioned to eat convenience food which often appears cheap and there is less effort in preparing it or buying take away, but it's actually more expensive than eating a nutritious, simple, home-made plant-based meal.
Sustainable healthy eating is not cheap. Eating like a poor vegetarian isn’t sustainable or healthy.
It's actually very healthy and sustainable. I've been vegan for over 15 years and the healthiest food I eat is the cheapest.
That doesn’t mean you’re healthy, or that it’s a good diet, especially if you have growing kids.
I'm sure you know much more about how healthy I am than I do.
