I have a challenge for anyone who thinks it is more expensive to eat home cooked food than ready meals.

You are welcome to come shopping in Accrington with me any Tuesday or Saturday.

For the price of two bargain buckets from KFC, you will be able to buy enough nutritious food stuffs to be turned into meals, to keep a family of four fed for a week.

ok next time your at asda take a look how much a peice of fresh fish costs compared to teh frozen crap in teh freezer treated with dyes and preservitaves

asda do 2 chickens for £5 which sounds good but the crap they pump them chickens with takes away any healthy option you may have gained

1 pepper at asda is about 68p ( yo can but packs of 3 but they are small and usualy bad)

potatoes are more expensive than chips

anything that says organic is twice the price

anything that says healthy option is eather double teh price or half the amount of food in them

in the chicken section alone at asda you get two seprately packaged and priced ranges of chicken , you get the chepaer stuff in teh white trays and the stuff in the blue trays which is a lot dearer

why do they need two separte types of chicken , teh only reason i can think is that they have a range for teh poorer peopel which is full of chemicals and a range for those with a bit more cash spare that is better quality with slightly less chemicals pumped into the chickens

if you want good healthy meat the only place you stand half a chane of getting it is at a butchers and again it costs more

you may think you are buying healthy food but if it is cheap it is cheap for a reason and that reason is usualy that it is full of crap and chemicals to make it either grow faster if it is vegetables or grow bigger if its an animal like when they pump chickens with antibiotics because it makes them bigger

You said yourself, you just picked up more condiments than you usually would because of the more varied choice ...... that's were the money mounts up you greedy girl!

Hello?

There's more than just shopping in ASDA.

garinda · 27-02-2007, 16:31

Even if you can't be arsed going round the market, were the best prices are to be found on fresh food stuffs, as Margaret Pilkington said places like Lidl have a great choice of cheap fruit and veg.

no i found it expensive in general xcept for soap powder

- even the warbbys bread is dearer at asda & the lack of frozen dept there [in comp to iceland] was dire! no wonder i ended up with tins!!!

thats takeaway food though and of course it costs more

the problem is that some people can only afford to fill their shopping trolly with economy burgers , tinned vegetables , piza slices , packs of 50 frozen sausages and all teh other cheap crap in the freezer sections at supermarkets

two bargain buckets = 20 quid

if you can feed a family of 4 with fresh meat , fresh veg , fresh fruit and fresh juice drinks for a week plus helthy breakfast cerals on 20 quid then you are either shoplifiting or teh second coming of jesus sharing out little food amongst the many

i still cant beleive im agreeing with you lol

Tinkerbelle · 27-02-2007, 16:43

OK chav .... how much is 2 baked potatoes, tuna and sweetcorn going to cost? Just one suggestion of a cheap and healthy meal for a child.

I can go on with more if you want? I just don't want to bore you

I wouldn't have offered the challenge if it wasn't possible.

There would be no econmoy burgers or pizzas on the weeks menu though, just nutritious meals cooked from ingredients you know to be fresh.

From someone who knows the importance of healty eating, but who lives on takeaways, your attitude is suprising.

what the hell has that got to do with anything i said i went out and bought healthy shopping and it cost more than when i went out doing a normal shop , what takeaway food i eat is irrelivant

i used to have takeaway every day , i ate normal food for 3 meals and had a curry every night for supper ,well actualy i had chineese occasionaly as well but that was because i could afford it , now i have akash once a week as a treat to my self and have cut out chineese all together

point is though i aint fat and apart from smoking i am in good health and yes my eating habbits could be better but i do buy fresh food even though it is more expensive

i am lucky enough not to have to do all my shopping in teh cheap freezer section but there have been times when i have had to so i stand by my argument that eating healthy is more expensive because i have been at both ends of the line and know first hand what it is like to have to buy the cheap crap because the decent stuff is out of my price range
