The Economics of Eating

The April 15Th tax deadline is quickly approaching. Besides the added stress that the deadline can bring, especially to those of us who owe the government, this year may have an additional slice of humble pie to offer: With the price of almost everything in our society going up, this is a time to think about the "Economics of Eating". Think about how you spend dollars on food and what is the result of your spending. Are you making choices that cause an even greater economic impact than the food selection itself? Are you overeating, spending too much on a daily basis on food, dollars that could be diverted to other financial obligations? Or are you using your food budget to actually save money and even become more healthy? Stay tuned, I will save a chair for you at the table. This is one of those culturally competent conversations every dietitian has to have with their family, the big talk!
