We imagine that those who are on the low income side would look emaciated and hungry, but that's typically not how it is in our country. Of course poverty here is totally different than poverty elsewhere but that is a different story...<br /><br />Something else along those lines is that lower income families that are uneducated tend to have to work a couple of jobs (each) meaning long, hard hours of work, so the quality of the food takes a back seat. Those families (and a lot of families these days) value a quick SEEMINGLY cheap meal over a freshly prepared one. I really really wish more was taught about nutrition and cooking in schools!!<br /><br />Hope you're doing well, friend! <3Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15160949360251275766noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6878654183183100997.post-86238412988655742412013-07-13T21:09:37.499-05:002013-07-13T21:09:37.499-05:00I love this!

Our diet has become mostly vegetarian because of that. Everything tastes pretty much the same as the bad stuff (with the exception of milk - of course the most expensive stuff tastes the best). I'm grateful for the permission to keep it real and keep it within budget. I would *really* love to see some of your menus and recipes.
