Re: Cheap Food?
Cheap food is great for prepping / emergency situations.
Nutritious and healthy food on a budget is much more important while it's possible to get it.
Something I have noticed from youtube vids etc is that you can get as much free food as you like in the US if you are on food stamps, but it's really unhealthy rubbish. The sort of stuff that will, eventually, lead to an early death. Maybe that's the idea??!
You can still live cheap and healthy - it just means buying fresh and cooking in bulk and avoiding anything processed or anything with added unwholesome ingredients.
Healthy food = healthy body and mind leaving you much better able to cope in stress situations.
Keep it - Simple, Fresh, Whole and organic where possible, even grow some of your own.
Avoid - Processed, high sugar, artificial enhancements (sweeteners, flavours, preservatives), factory farmed meats, genetically modified, carbonated drinks, deep fried, non-organic dairy - the list is endless which is why you need to keep it simple.
It might sound boring but I eat a fairly wholesome diet (I'm not religious about it - love bacon butties on a saturday morning after beers the night before!!) that is delicious, inexpensive and nutritious, and I feel pretty much great for it compared to how I used to feel when I ate rubbish.
