Why don't people look for ways to eat better for less?

We all know food is expensive, but few take simple steps to cut their costs. I'm a cheap old guy, and eat well, but spend little. It isn't rocket science, you just need to use a little thought.

Are you really expecting answers to this question, or are you just a disgruntled old man venting?

As for me, I have filet mignon and caviar every night.

In am the type of person that invests money with a broker, is careful in unnecessary spending and has a budget, but I also splurge from time to time for a super great dinner.

Because we ain't all cheap.
Eating good means spending a little more. I love it when the store has prime grade steaks available. I know they cost a lot, but they are so good I'll buy. I know there is a farmer's market down the street with cheaper prices, but I'll buy my food at the grocery store with the best selection and quality of fruits and vegetables so I don't have to go to too many places, and so the stuff doesn't turn bad as fast.

Bottom line, you can't make great meals from cheap ingredients.

to be honest you get what you pay for the more you spend the better food you get and you know what they say you are what you eat you decide
