re: When did the myth that eating unhealthy processed foods is cheaper than eating healthy?

You are not taking into account the time it does take to prepare but I get your sentiment
I meal prep about 1 hour on sunday and typically cook something else one other night a week. It takes less than 5 minutes to warm it up or make a vegetable as a side.
Yet people will drive 15 minutes to the nearest taco bell and back because that's "quicker"

Even for unhealthy fat people who eat convenient food all the time, Taco Bell just sucks in general.

Your obviously single and have no kids.
We almost never eat out and my wife and I carry our breakfast and lunch to work.
But it definitely takes me more than an hour to cook and feed us all for the week. And that's not counting the dishes.

Eating the same overcooked meat, mushy veggies, and bland rice every day of the week gets old.

1. I question how good your food is if it takes one hour to make it for the week, regardless of how healthy it is...you might see it as fuel but would you serve it to someone and expect them to eat it?
2. Kids are a game changer. They might weigh 25 lbs but they cost just as much as you do to “feed”. I watch hundreds of dollars of food go in the trash every month just giving my kids the opportunity to eat
Moral of the story, life is much easier by yourself. Traveling, eating, finding time to exercise and otherwise managing expenses is not very difficult when you are only accountable for yourself. Wouldn’t start a thread with that thought either, it’s obvious
