I also eat cans of tuna all the time which is surprisingly filling. To many people in this country have become complacent with eating unhealthy and the excuse that eating healthy is expensive. Just the other day i went to Wendys and purchased a baked potato for $1.29, and I dare say it was a good size potato.Zach Studerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04352063436140121451noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7922042388175028675.post-68867057681171084252012-01-31T19:15:21.182-08:002012-01-31T19:15:21.182-08:00I agree with you about local economy but I think w...I agree with you about local economy but I think when they talk about its more expensive to eat healthy I think they are comparing buying carrots to potato chips. the carrots cost more compared to the amount of carrots you can get.Autumnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05490790819595416540noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7922042388175028675.post-40639697124418361012012-01-31T07:53:51.476-08:002012-01-31T07:53:51.476-08:00Eating locally is a good idea and also helps the e...Eating locally is a good idea and also helps the environment by reducing the toxic gases produced by moving food long distance. But why is it cheaper to get unhealthy food than healthy food. I would think that it would have been the other way around because the food would not have to be frozen and stored for long periods of time and need tones of fuel to move about. all of that takes a lot of money, how does that cost less than a farmer driving a truck down the road to the farmers market?Fredhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06158149393858479437noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7922042388175028675.post-19369073581861583192012-01-30T12:48:05.634-08:002012-01-30T12:48:05.634-08:00I agree that buying local food benefits the consum...I agree that buying local food benefits the consumer and the local economy. Local food is just a a healthier choice but also local food can be more expensive depending on what it is.Courtneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16456659019341071203noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7922042388175028675.post-42132611071877918692012-01-30T11:47:58.383-08:002012-01-30T11:47:58.383-08:00I agree that the local economy needs help and a wa...I agree that the local economy needs help and a way to help is by getting food locally. The movie was interesting as well because I am already picky about what I eat at times so it just helped me get a better understanding of food. But youre absolutely right about improving the local economySamanthahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02065876741933471673noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7922042388175028675.post-56347517827641768942012-01-30T11:19:39.820-08:002012-01-30T11:19:39.820-08:00Seriously I would have never thought of any of tho...Seriously I would have never thought of any of those things to eat but those are very good points and ideas.
