Myth 3: Eating healthy costs too much
Fact: Eating healthy can actually cost less for a family of four
If you buy organic, out-of-season or unusual fruits and vegetables, they can cost more per ounce. Fast food, restaurant meals and processed foods can be more expensive than eating at home. You can save money and eat healthier by:
- Preparing and cooking more meals at home
- Buying fruit and vegetables in-season
- Buying Fruits and vegetables when they are on sale
- Buying in bulk
- Growing your own fruits and vegetables
