I remember my assistant one day telling me how hard it was to lose weight and feed her kids well - she pointed out that a single apple could cost $.79, whereas she could often buy mac-n-cheese for the same amount - a meal, or an apple. So she'd go for processed crap foods because they're cheaper.

Don't forget, the heavier you are because of those cheap and filling foods, the more health problems you'll have, which is a boon to the health care system! Hooray! A perfect circle. That is, of course, if you can afford health care in this free and just land of ours.
