One of those "Duh" Headlines/Research Projects

Check out this headline: A High Price for Healthy Food...it turns out researchers at the University of Washington did a survey that showed healthier foods cost more and that people on limited incomes tended to stock up on high calorie, inexpensive items! Hmmm...wonder how much they paid for that survey?

The survey found that higher-calorie, energy-dense foods are the better bargain for cash-strapped shoppers. Energy-dense munchies cost on average $1.76 per 1,000 calories, compared with $18.16 per 1,000 calories for low-energy but nutritious foods.

I didn't realize the difference was that great! WOW! The article goes on to say that fruits and veggies are becoming a luxury item...I think meat is too.

So, is this news to you or had you already figured it all out? And how do you get your fruits and veggies in?
