Not really. Healthy food for a family of five where I live is roughly the same as an equivalent lot of fast food, sometimes more expensive.
Healthy food isn't just quinoa and gluten free oats y'know.
Good old cabbage, rye bread, spaghetti, peas and carrots etc. is dirt cheap.
Food prices do not remain the same everywhere. Some places those things are far from dirt cheap, especially if you live in an urban area where the only produce available took the expense of being shipped a far distance. I don't know where you live, but as someone who has lived in both the city and county, rural people tend to take for granted the ready ability of nearby vegetation sources and often forget that not everyone has a local farmer's market.
