DisneySteve,
I do forget we both live in the Garden State - and produce around here is relatively cheap. NJ, which has a bad reputation for so much, has some of the best produce - blueberries, strawberries, tomatoes, peaches, corn, everything really. I can often get two containers of blueberries for $3.00 when they are in season.
But. . .that being said. . .meat (other than luncheon) ain't cheap here. I remember when I lived in St. Louis, I could pick up a ham quarter for $5.00. . .used to make ham and cabbage a lot out there.
Minimum for a ham (other than a ham steak) is $12.00 here.
But yes, again. . .I totally disagree. Eating healthy doesn't have to break you. It's not more expensive. I really think it's a wash.
