  1. some junk food is cheaper than healthy food. but i guess that depends. its easier to buy a box of captain crunch rather than a bag of chicken. or a frozen pizza thats $1.50.

  4. It is important to have a healthy diet, but the prices of healthy or organic foods are expensive, but i think it is a price people have to pay. Because being healthy is very important, sometimes they just need to pay the extra few dollars.

  8. It is all about priorities, instead of spending your money on another video game or buying a fancy phone use the money to get healthier food.

  9. Id have to agree with Bossk it has a lot to do with priorities. Me personally i think it is worth it to pay more for healthy food because in the long run you less likely to spend money for bad health.
