Black beans at Walmart was $0.72 per 15.25 ounce can. I consume them daily. They have with or without salt. The price went up recently I believe to about $0.98 at some stores, though. I am going to stay at a small town over 100 miles from the nearest Walmart and I'm getting a very large quantity of whole wheat pasta and beans, and several boxes of tea bags. I can eat the cost of the fresh stuff I consume. Also, the sauerkraut at Walmart is cheap and super tasty imho but has lots of salt. I find it easier to eat the same thing most of the time. I change it up sometimes when I have a craving like for whole wheat bread.

It was pretty incredible timing for me to eat almost entirely plant based. Everyone complaining about their grocery bills around me but seemingly not connecting the dots to just how much they're spending on meat. They often ask me how I can afford to eat fresh produce and I have to give them a reality check that it's honestly dirt cheap. Unless you're eating 90% fruits and leafy greens, it's very affordable. Rice, beans and lentils are nutritious and soooooo cheap. They form the staples to which I add vegetables to bulk meals up and space out over long periods of time. I still eat salads but most of my greens are cooked in stews. Plus the best benefit is just how long they last in the fridge compared to meat products. I have much much less waste. I also have to remind people that frozen veggies are a thing and totally useful especially in off-seasons. They're often cheaper too. Eating healthy doesn't have to break the bank.

Beans are cheaper than meat. Oatmeal is cheaper than sugary cereals. Fresh potatoes are cheaper than frozen French fries. A bag of brown rice is cheaper than a box of Rice-A-Roni. I'm not sure why people think eating healthier is more expensive. Maybe if they only think organic is healthy (and I'm a bit skeptical about that, as you are). Yes, an organic head of lettuce costs twice as much as a non-organic head of lettuce. But a salad made from a non-organic head of lettuce is still healthier than a hot dog, and probably cheaper. Maybe if they are eating meat-based diet (low carb, paleo, etc) they think a healthier meal is more expensive? I'll agree a pound of wild caught Alaskan salmon is much more expensive than a pound of ground beef. But you don't need either of those. There are plenty of less expensive fish or poultry options where you can get your low-carb animal proteins with less unhealthy fats. It's really not that hard.

Some forgotten meat parts like chicken stomachs are very cheap, low in fat (below 1% in mass) and rich in collagen protein which can has some benefits over regular meat without collagen. Requires some pre-marinating to soften it, but tastes good. I have found that organic vegetables and fruits are better quality than regular types in my shops. Why? Because in most cases, organic are grown in my local area, while conventional are often just covered in wax and imported from foreign countries at the opposite end of the world. Those importend vegetables and fruits are tasteless. I agree that you don't need organic label to have good quality products if you know that it's grown in local area.

I want to eat healthy, but if the prepackaged veggies and fruits have added sugars or something else I wouldn’t think or know to watch out for, it would ruin the attempt at eating healthy for cheaper.

Great video! Good advice! And the comments from the viewers are good too. I did want to mention one though- maybe someone else has mentioned it already (I haven’t read all of the comments yet)…if someone is finding it hard to afford groceries, buying in bulk may seem like an impossibility even if it’s cheaper in the long run. For instance, spending $25 for 25 lbs of lentils…it’s hard to think of spending that much money on a single ingredient even if it is a large amount of that 1 food. If it’s replacing meat entirely, it might seem more doable, but in that case the cook of the family will probably need to be prepared with a lot of really amazing recipes for it, or the family will get sick of the same thing on repeat. There are already so many different ways to fix meat that we’re familiar with; unfortunately most of us haven’t had that experience of variety with beans/legumes. I do think that for health and money your suggestions were excellent though. I guess we all just need to do our research for legume recipes that are really delicious and dive in. 😁

I follow a lot of these tips. So awesome! My new fav is the almond milk and saving the rest for almond meal... one thing I learned to do a long time ago was to save all the peals and leaves and stems and everything I wasn’t going to cook off a veg and put it in my freezer safe container (gallon freezer ziplock or Tupperware)and when that container is full, throw it in the crockpot and make homemade broth. This obviously works for bone stocks as well. I haven’t bought any broths in So many years.. I’m even talking garlic skins and onion skins etc... saves a lot over time 🙂
@CharGC123

My favorite budget tip too! Broth is so much more flavorful than water in so many recipes, but buying it is outrageously pricey... IF you can even find a decent, non-animal version! I save ALL my veggie and even some fruit scraps until I have a full load for the instant pot, then freeze some of it in quart containers until the next batch. Nothing unwanted added, and it's FREE! (Then I toss the cooked solids into the compost pile for free fertilizer.) Speaking of onion and garlic skins, I saved up a bag of dry skins, toasted them on low in the oven until very brittle, tossed them in the blender and made a free tasty seasoning powder. Recently a local farm blessed us with a load of very ripe red peppers I had to use up fast, so I roasted a bunch and used the charred peels I'd normally discard in the same way. Amazing mixed with the other skins too!

Two other things that I would like to point out as far as drinking more water, one is addressing the filtration system and using a reusable bottle and tap water. A reverse osmosis drinking water filtration system is relatively cheap, easy to install and easy to maintain. Especially if you drink a lot of water. In my household there are seven people. Including myself, two adults five children a dog and a parakeet. For what it would cost us to get bottled water for a month we bought the filtration system and for what a week of bottled water costs I can perform the annual filter element maintenance. But what about the fizz? Something else to get me to drink more water is either plain seltzer water with fruit added to it or naturally essenced seltzer water. It gives you the satisfying fizz of soda without the sugar and chemicals of soda.

Affordable healthy diet changes can be such a minor nudge in the right direction, like adding a can of beans to a meat based recipes you already make or adding some an additional veg to a soup recipes. It’s hard trying to cook in a nutritionally divided house. One great little tweak I found out this week was I can make cornbread a bit healthier by using a combo of doing applesauce instead of oil, add some frozen corn and half a grated (yellow) summer squash. I have one family member who is so resistant to trying unprocessed foods it’s hard to not find every possible upgrade the nutritional profile of a recipe without them noticing.

I am with you on your skepticism of "organic" vs non-organic foods. It is a common misconception that "organic" means pesticide/herbicide-free. It does not. Organic only means the pesticides/herbicides used have to be made from organic compounds as opposed to synthetic compounds. From what I've researched, this is actually worse for the environment, and not any better for us. Organic toxins are broad-spectrum and indiscriminate. They kill many non-targeted pests. They run off into waterways and kill fish and frogs, too, not just crop pests and weeds. Synthetics are engineered to target specific species, or groups of species and, therefore, result in less "casualties of war". Organic pesticides/herbicides are also less effective. This results in lower crop yield per acre, resulting in more clear-cutting to make room for the extra acreage needed to produce the same amount of food as farms using synthetics. Is that really better for the environment? And "natural" doesn't necessarily mean healthier for us, either. Cyanide is natural. Arsenic is natural. But do you want those chemicals on your food?

Good advice. I apply several of these tips myself. And I buy in bulk when there's an extra good price. A few weeks ago my local store that is usually really cheap anyway, had big bags of bananas and tomatoes (not mixed together) that were starting to go bad. I came home with about 8 kilograms of produce for about 2 euros. I froze some of it. But then I made a bunch of banana breads and a big pot of tomato and red lentil soup. I don't know the cost per meal for that, but it was really cheap! But putting fruit in water is, in my opinion, disgusting. I'd much rather just drink the water and eat the fruit.

People here also think that eating healthy is expensive but they base their healthy food based on what foreigner influencers and marketing experts say what healthy is. Here banana is cheap, you can get like 20 bananas for U$1 compared to apples which cost around U$1 a piece.

Isn't organic better for digestive health? Or is that unconfirmed...

Organic does not mean pesticide/herbicide-free. It only means those toxins have to be made from organic compounds as opposed to synthetic compounds. I would guess "natural" toxins are no better for your gut health than synthetic ones. Poison is poison.

That map of the Blue Zones is interesting. With the exception of Costa Rica, you could draw a straight horizontal line from California, through the Meditteranean and onto Japan. I know California has a Meditteranean climate and a quick search revealed Japan is Meditteranean and Sub-Tropical - Wow! Never knew that. How interesting! Maybe it is the lovely warmth and sunshine that is good for the local foods and local people. All these areas are also coastal and likely eat a lot of sea food. It would be interesting to look at people and diets in the southern Mediterranean areas, such as Chile, South Africa and South Australia. Another thing all these places have in common is the climate is perfect for growing grapes for wine. Lots of wine is consummed in these areas. Studying S. Australia would be interesting as the climate is Mediterranean but immigration is diverse, and it would be interesting to see which immigrant groups live the longest, and do they home cook and stick to their cuisine of origin etc. I have family in S. Australia and my Aunty is 87. The longest lived of all my relatives who have stayed in the UK. This year I went to Sardinia, we drove up into many of the the mountain villages and yes saw lots of really elderly people up there. Still living a very simple, basic, dare I say it, peasant lifestyle. I guess walking up and down the hills keeps them fit too. Plus going to church - lots of churches there. It is also a very beautiful island with mountains in the East and incredibly beautiful beaches. Eating out at tourist places wasn't cheap though. But the food market in Cagliari, the capital city, was amazing and wine was so cheap. I think it is all about sitting down and enjoying good food and a drink in a relaxed way and not rushing around. I plan to go back again next year as it was so lovely and visit another area - for research purposes of course :)

The ice-cold everyday helper is one of the biggest electricity guzzlers in the household. An average freezer with a volume of 200 liters consumes around 120 to 230 kilowatt hours (kWh) of electricity per year.

Great, but time consuming way to preserve veggies: batch pickling them... If you have more time, ferment them (make sauerkraut or kimchi) But this is very time consuming

Dude organic is definitely better environmentally. No contest. Pesticides and fertilizer runoff.

It is a common misconception that "organic" means pesticide/herbicide-free. It does not. Organic only means the pesticides/herbicides used have to be made from organic compounds as opposed to synthetic compounds. From what I've researched, this is actually worse for the environment, and not any better for us. Organic toxins are broad-spectrum and indiscriminate. They kill many non-targeted pests. They run off into waterways and kill fish and frogs, too, not just crop pests and weeds. Synthetics are engineered to target specific species, or groups of species and, therefore, result in less "casualties of war". Organic pesticides/herbicides are also less effective. This results in lower crop yield per acre, resulting in more clear-cutting to make room for the extra acreage needed to produce the same amount of food as farms using synthetics. Is that really better for the environment? And "natural" doesn't necessarily mean healthier for us, either. Cyanide is natural. Arsenic is natural. But do you want those chemicals on your food?
