One of the hardest things about switching from high sugar/high fat (though I have less problems with fats as long as they’re “good” fat. but I digress.) for most low income families is that not only does “healthier” food cost more but what if your family doesn’t like it? Costs more AND you end up throwing it away? Double whammy on not trying something new that’s for sure.

Further, most TV shows and/or cookbooks using “health” foods focus on difficult recipes or use really unusual or costly ingredients. I’d love to see grocery stores and producers team up to have in-store product tastings/cooking demonstrations on how best to use these healthier ingredients. That way, families could taste test’em right in the store and decide if they like them AND have a recipe to use when they get home.

And “sodas” should be outlawed.
