The MAN wants to keep the poor people fat and the rich people skinny, so that when the real class war happens, it is easy to know what side you are supposed to be on.

The same reason that soy substitutes are more expensive than real meat and health care is so expensive. Good health is reserved for those of wealth.

Burers consist of pink slime today and are relatively easy to make and are largely automatic. Salads take a bit more work to mix the ingredients.

Eating slads makes you healthy; not good for the system.
Burgers make you sick earlier so the systems is happy.

Burgers are more tasty than salads. People are more likely to buy two or three burgers which right there is $2 or $3. To make up for what they lose on salads that will be thrown out if not sold,they raise the price. They do it will everything.

Organic (better food) cost more, but your body will require less food if you eat mostly organic. Eating less = less money spent on grocries. I use to think eating organic food would cost me more than eating junk...wrong! I need less food now because I'm getting the right kind of nutrition my body needs; to keep going. Better for your health and helps keep the pounds away!

because crappy food is cheaper to produce. it is also devoid of nutritional content (leaving the eater hungry) and its addictive.

Sad to see that manufacturing pink slime is still cheaper than growing lettuce.

Big business has figured out a way to make money off of you either way. You can eat healthy food and pay through the back side or the 99 cent burger and end up with medical bills. :-)

...unless it's simply "supply and demand". Making my own salads is less expensive than cooking meat, all things considered.

But you can't blame commercials for kids poor eating habits. Lets face it, they aren't paying for it themselves. Two letter word that adults need to learn....N O.

This is America, home of the double whopper and the heart attack grill. You wouldn't expect us to eat healthy would you? Try opening a restaurant that only serves very healthy food in this country. It will not last all that long.
