Why is eating fresh, healthy fruit and vegetables, so expensive?? How do we expect schools to serve more fresh fruit/veggies to our kids, when it’s so darn expensive?
From the Physician’s Committee for Responsible Medicine comes this incredible graphic. Look at it and get to know it. Look at the subsidies for fruit and vegetables!
If the US Government wants us to eat healthy, it sure isn’t evident in where they spend their money in food production. And, in light of the lack of subsidies directed at making fruit/vegetables more accessible and affordable, the USDA tries to push more cheese on us.
You’ll be amazed with this “ultra-cheesy” investigative report from the New York Times.
You decide. Does the government really care about our health??
