I love a cheap hot dog. Which brings me to my point: Often times fast food is not just more convenient, but can be a lot cheaper. I've been trying to eat healthier but it is expensive. Worm meal is cheap, lips qnd assholes are cheap, grade "e" meat is cheap. I have a $70 a month food allowance. 25 cent pot pies are my friend. (yes I could cut back on r/c, and eat better, r/c keeps my mind occupied and thats much needed in my life right now)

I'm going to re-read this thread in hopes of learning some cheap healthy alternatives. In the mean time, what are some cheap healthy alternatives?

Stockpile and eat more ramen noodles .

Seriously though, the Japanese don't seem to have a lot of health problems and their diet consists mainly of fish, rice, and vegetables. I do some of my grocery shopping in Japanese supermarkets and this is what I noticed.

It's cheaper to cook. Rice is easy to make and if you have a pressure cooker, you can make your own beans in no time at all. I can e-mail you how we Brasilians prepare our typical rice and beans. Best thing is, you can make extra and have left over that last for about a week in the fridge. It even taste better. A lot of the people I know who went to Brasil couldn't understand why they saw so many fit looking people full of energy. Well, I tell them it's because of the food we eat.
