Woman Gets Roasted And Toasted On Twitter After Posting About Healthy Vs Unhealthy Food Prices

Food insecurity is a real issue in the US. Depending on your age, budget, and location, the kinds of food you have access to can be extremely different. In most major cities you can find a wide variety of cheap meals, and bargain prices even on healthy foods. But if you live in a more rural area, unless you are lucky enough to have a garden or farm nearby, the closest place to grab food might be a Mcdonald's or a little gas station. People who believe that there are cheap fresh food options at every intersection are quite frankly deluded. it's the same kind of people who think that everyone can afford fair-trade prices, those are more expensive too!

Twitter user @dremilyportermd struck a conversation online about the major food price differences between her local grocery store and her local Mcdonald's. Some people support her assertions, but other people have strong counter-arguments.

01

Dr. Emily Porter argued that people need to stop judging people who do not have the budget, or time to purchase healthy food. She compares the prices of her local produce and a full Mcdonald's meal. The only issue is the price differences are not the same all over the country, much less in other countries around the world.

After receiving some backlash Dr. Porter decides to add some credibility to her statement and includes she has personally been in the position where all she could afford was Mcdonald's. She even attaches some images of the meal options to further prove her point.
