One pound of butternut squash has 200 calories. To get your 2500 calories per day from butternut squash you need to eat 12.5 pounds of it. Daily. Here butternut squash is $1.69 per pound. That's around $20/day. It's not as cheap as you think. Sugar, flour and vegetable oils are far, far cheaper per calorie, and that's what comprises most of the calorie intake of fatasses. Unhealthy food is cheaper and that's a fact. You're the one who is wrong, buddy.
All it takes it some simple prep and the willingness to put in a little time cooking a meal.
You have to remember ecactly who (and what) these people are. Which is more "expensive" to a lazy, sub-80 IQ fatty; $2 for a cheeseburger right now or buying healthy veggies, figuring out how to cook them (or even follow instructions), and planning meals in advance? I worked in fast-food as a teen, and even then people were literally too stupid to order their own food without my help. Healthy food could be free and still the "more expensive" choice for a lot of these "people". Add in sugar addiction, adverts, and a "healthy at any size" culture, and you're an extreme minority pissing in a very fat, very lazy ocean.
