Fresh fruit and veg, and fresh meat is way more expensive than processed and frozen or tinned foods.
Nope...

I was comparing veggies to meat and cheese etc. And packaged stuff is more expensive than either, at least over here. The more processing you get, the more expensive it is... like an M&M meat shop dinner will be more expensive than if you bought all the individual ingredients and made it yourself.


Anyhoo, it makes me miss Central America... you didn't even need a fridge because there was always a market just around the corner. You could eat there for less than a buck all day if you were vegetarian.
