    The usual excuse for not cooking healthy is lack of time to prepare it. These people obviously have lots of spare time on their hands.

      Obviously all their fee time is taken up with exercise, did you see the size of their abs?!

      (I spend >400$ per month on food.)
      Stop.

        Huh? I try to eat heathily, I don't know how to cook, and I don't have a lot of time to spend cooking.

        If I ate out more I would spend a lot more, but mostly I try to eat out at places like Subway (which is pretty cheap).

          400 dollars is a ridiculous amount to be spending on food, healthy or not. Especially if you don't eat out often.

          Thats basically $4.50 a meal, you can do much better if you are so inclined.

            The poor also are disproportionately affected by depression, with much less means of dealing with it. Food is one way people deal with depression, and as GePap pointed out, food with lots of calories and little nutritional value is less expensive that fruits and veggies.

              Dunno, but where I lived in Jacksonville, there was a serious dearth of sidewalks.

                In any event, lack of a car or sidewalks are piss-poor excuses for not working. There are various transportation options.
                I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891

                  Even if fruits or veggies were available, judging by my own experience with depression they wouldn't be reaching for the carrot sticks.

                    Overeating is a behavioral disorder, not because of a wealth disparity. They have the power to control what goes into their mouths, and healthy eating is a lot cheaper than eating fast food.

                    I know because I used to eat out a lot, and I'm heavier and poorer because of it. Now I'm on the right track; exercising and eating smart. I don't have a lot of money, but I still made the right decision.

                      Again, you used the word smart. Obviously lacking from the two pictured above.

                          Then you may have to explain why the poor are disproportionally obese in the US. Obviously wealth disparity plays into it, because as pointed out, processed food is cheaper and far less healthy.

                          Hey, I like to get non processed stuff as much as I can and cook as much as I can (and I do cook a great deal), but I spend a good amount of money (not too far off from Jon Miller... about $350 a month, though I think I eat out more than him, especially for lunch during the work week).

                            I spend something like $250 a month on food (but I'm only counting grocery shopping, not eating out).

                              They make poor choices, not because of the supposed limits to the quality of food they can purchase.

                              Where do you get the idea that "processed"* foods are more expensive than fruits, vegetables, meat, etc.?


                              * I honestly don't quite know what you mean here... are you talking about "processed" as opposed to "organic" or as opposed to fast food?
