Also, fattening /= something having a lot of fat. I'm sorry to bring this back up, but it really annoys me when people are attacked for being right. Now go back to talking about cute little doggies, which is a much better topic.

I just really disagree with the fact poor people can not afford healthy food because it is expensive and unhealthy food is cheaper, I think it is a lame excuse. I also think beans are one of the most healthy foods to eat and they are dirt cheap, but I am not going to continue to argue about it. Ok you win.

Part of my point, which I said earlier, is that fiber is listed as a carb in most nutritional listings. Obviously, not all carbs are the same, just as not all fat is the same. I agree that beans and rice are great, and there is a lot of nutritional value in them. In fact, I eat them fairly regularly.

Is it possible to eat healthy foods on a budget? Sure. Is it harder to get access to healthy foods in some areas? Absolutely. But the biggest obstacle to healthy eating is ignorance. Most people learn what to eat and how to cook from their mothers. One look at the mom can tell you that the daughter is doomed. And I've observed a huge amount of resistance among even otherwise smart and educated people to change their eating habits. ("Are you saying my mom fed me unhealthy food???") So what makes anyone think that these women are going to study nutrition? Add to that the "one-diet-fits-all" idiocy that most 'nutritionists' advocate and the the obsession with carbohydrates that is forced on us by Big Food using the power to the government to tell us that eating their most profitable products is 'healthy', and it is no mystery why obesity is epidemic in this country.
