Why is heathy food more expensive than fast or junk food?
It is because fast foods and processed foods are easy and inexpensive to make and hence cheaply priced. "Healthy" foods generally have to be shipped in, they have a short shelf-life, making it more expensive to keep in stock, and more expensive for the consumer.
Of course, if you are serious about losing weight, it is necessary to buy heathy and more expensive food. But on the other hand, healthy eating means also eating much less food then we are used to.
Even eating habits of fat people aren´t cheap. Fat people buy and eat a lot of useless food – chips, nuts, cakes...And one more detail – don´t forget to include in the price of „food for fat people“ price for pharmaceuticals that they eat only because they are obese. I mean especially pharmaceuticals for cholesterol and high blood pressure. And later on also pharmaceuticals for diabetes and in worst case for cancer – all of these are typical results of obesity.
