I have often heard it said that one cannot eat healthy foods on a budget or limited income. So, just wanted to see you thought would buy if you had a tight budget. How would you ensure a healthy diet for yourself and family?
We have an Aldi's. Dont go there as much as i probably should. I disagree that junk food is cheaper. A bag of apples is pretty cheap.
Rabbits n squirrels make good eatin', too.
Go fishing.
Fish, rice, and a vegetable with milk.
I noticed you posted a Wally World grocery list in your thread that got nuked.
8/10 of those items are cheaper @ Aldi's.
Bag o' taters: $1.75

You can buy an entire chicken for a reasonable price, roast it and eat if for couple days and then make soup out of the carcass. It's a very economical meal. They sell huge half turkey breasts at our grocery store. I can feed 4 people with that. Frozen veggies are cheap and healthy.
And, a 10lb bag of flour at Walmart is $2.24. There are 34 cups of flour in a 10lb bag. An avg loaf of bread is about 3-4 cup. You can make 8-10 loaves of bread with flour, water, a small amount of yeast, salt and a bit of shortening. I have a 2lb pouch of yeast in my freezer. You can make bread for pennies. It really isn't that hard when you get the hang of it.
A 2lb pouch of yeast is 32 oz. Those yeast packs are 2 1/4 teaspoons = 0.25 ounces. This pouch is the equivalent of 128 of those small yeast packets they sell at the store.
There are discount grocery stores that have lots of frozen veggies for cheap. Stock up on it.
There are good sources of protein that cost less as well. Lesser cuts of beef, pork ect. Whole chickens instead of chicken breasts. And even hotdogs or ground beef can add a lot to meals. Stretch the meals with potatoes.
In my house (no kids) we eat low carb. I make creamed cauliflower in the Instant-Pot and its better than mashed potatoes.

This is all great guys.
Now go get that poor person outta his food desert and over to the nice side of town where the discount stores are. Then teach him to bake bread. Then for an encore you can take him out to the countryside and teach him how to hunt.
Totally and completely wrong. Did you make it all up or have you just never left your house?This is all great guys.

Food desert? Nice side of town where the discount stores are? Clearly, your mommy needs to take you grocery shopping with her once in a while. The poor areas of town are loaded with discount stores. The rich side of town, not so much, because rich people don't shop in them. Also, you don't need "discount stores" for anything that's being mentioned. I buy my groceries at branches of the same damned supermarkets that are in EVERY neighborhood in town.
It's noticeable that your default is ALWAYS "do things for people, because I assume they're incapable of doing anything without instructions".
