Choices Poor For Both Health Food

left her hungry and worried that her Health Food wouldnt last the week. She concluded that the $21-a-week food stamp allotment was ridiculously insufficient.

Her shopping cart didnt contain much in the way of budget-conscious healthy standards - where was the 10-pound bag of potatoes that leapt immediately to mind when I considered trying to feed myself cheaply? Where were the dried beans.

But if those choices dont provide enough calories, Health Food it doesnt follow that $21 is insufficient. Her hunger and worry were the result of her Health Food choices, Health Food not of her budget.
