RE: Quality and value...where have you gone?

It's a choice some people make I guess and some don't have any choice at all. Isn't it interesting how our choices are influenced by those we have around us though, your wife in your case. It's good that you're diet included more vegetables these days.

You are right. I think social standing makes a huge difference too. My wife and I are always shocked at how much fresh fruits and vegetable cost. Then you go buy the processed stuff with all kinds of carbs and additives for $.99. It's almost like some people don't have a choice.

I read a thing a while back about those in the lower socio-economic demographic having a poorer level of health due to eating habits around cheaper and more processed foods based on cost. Eating healthily is far more costly than not doing so.

In so many ways yes.
