Stating the obvious?

I'm listening to this on NPR and I feel like I'm an alien or something.

The problem I'm having is that the host of the show is acting all surprised at the fact that junk food is cheaper than fresh healthy food.

Seriously, people don't know that the cheap food is the worse food in most or many cases? I mean, you don't know that a twinkie is cheaper than a bunch of carrots? Is there someone out there (granted, I'm talking about people who actually do their own shopping, not someone with a kitchen staff or anything) who doesn't know that fruit is more expensive than chips? Or that fresh bread is more expensive than preservative-filled bread?

Sometimes I feel like I'm in the secret know of things that I thought were obvious, and other people are just discovering them. It makes me feel like I'm from another universe or something.

Really?

Thanks, very nice of you.

First, check my

Amazon.com wishlist

and there's no need to worry that I already have it or won't use it.

Tip: Check around for better pricing. Amazon's pricing is usually good, but not always the best available.

A quick Froogle search can't hurt.
