Why is it that it cost more money to eat healthy? Well in my case I'll tell you.
I go through this ritual, of wanting things to be just right food wise, so first of all I make sure that I get all the foods that I know I won't be eating for a while, things that I ordinarily don't eat mind you. Pepper ridge farm cookies???????? come on! I until yesterday hadn't eaten any of those in what two years. And it doesn't stop there, I cram my basket with OJ, mixed fruit juices, sodas, ice cream, (the deluxe kind mind you.) chocolates, grummy worms, bagels, hot dog buns, sliced bread, BUTTER! fish fry, huh? huh, huh, you read right, fish fry, to deep fry fish and make home made french fries to go along with it. But it doesn't stop there, let's not forget jam, marmalade, canned baked beans in thick brown sugar, Jumbo eggs, so that I can have MORE EGG from one EGG, how crazy is that sausages, Jimmy Deans, this and Jimmy Deans that. The list goes on and on. and so does my dollars. Can someone say Therapy? Then of course can't have healthy without preparing for the healthy next thing you know, I have every kind of mix of bagged lettuce by Dole. Cucumbers, tomatoes, onions, sweet potatoes, 1% and skimmed milk, half and half, just in case the recipe calls for half and half instead of 1% or skimmed milk.
Bottom line is insanity aside, we all know what we're suppose to do. And it isn't feast because we've talked ourselves into believing that we're about to enter a famine.
Someone please tell me that I'm not the only one that does this.
