Ok-- so maybe a couple of things, but in the super markets where I live, eating fresh vegetables, poultry, beef, fruit, etc, is far more expensive than frozen or canned.
For the most part where I shop, canned is cheaper than frozen, and frozen is cheaper than fresh. Also, you're quoting named brand shit. You could get store brand frozen potatoes for cheaper than the betty crocker instant you mention above. However, I now know where you're coming from kind of. Still disagree. I buy all fresh and I pay out the ass. I could just as easily get a $3.99 frozen pizza and feed both myself and my husband, but often times I make casseroles and stuff, and they cost me like $25-$50 to make. Granted the $50 one is 2-3 meals for us, but that still comes out to 8.33/person per meal.
the world would be a much better place without texting, facebook, twitter, and all that
if kids had to do something physically exherting (push ups, running) instead of detention or in school suspension when they got in trouble at school there would be substantially less shitheads.
on that note kids are waaay to fucking lazy nowadays and its not ok that your 300 pounds and play 8 hours of xbox a day. go outside fatty
Thank you- that was my whole point.
Don't have anything against what she's doing, or buying local, farmer's markets, etc. But to argue that it's cheaper just isn't accurate.
Especially when Raspberry said that there was "no point for restaurants to use frozen food when fresh is cheaper," clearly restaurants don't choose to pay more for frozen food.
