| Healthy choices for less |
Often, in fact ALMOST always, the healthful food choices are more expensive than the less desirable ones. However, it pays to keep your eyes open and look around.
The deli in our local supermarket offering free-range turkey, sliced for $4.97 per pound. When we checked the process, sliced, packaged turkey in the lunch meat area, we were surprised to find that most brands cost roughly $2.50 for an 8 oz. package ... which is actually slightly MORE expensive than the free-range turkey.
Also, a local farmer's market offers pastured eggs ($1.20) for far less than the supermarket ($2.80), although the prices for these are still just slightly higher than the average asking price for mass-produced eggs ($1.15) of the same size.
It pays to shop around. We weren't surprised that the farmer's market offered better quality food for a reasonable price, but we didn't expect to see that the supermarket deli would. Check unexpected places as well, and eat for your health! |
