What I am hoping to find during my research is the negatives of processed foods, how it is advertised and the prices compared to healthy whole foods. Another is why junk food is mostly sold to poor areas than the rich and how can we as community change that. Where my research is falling short is finding more topics to go with my question which is “If the Food Industry Continues to Increase the Amount of Processed Food will it Negatively Affect the Overall Health and Financial Situation of American Consumers.” I do not know what else to talk about.
Thinking if I should talk about the wellbeing of people using processed foods for example how it’s affecting their mental health or talk about politics on how much money goes into processed foods.
It is better to start eating healthy foods now because you can improve your snacking without adding a huge cost difference to your monthly budget. We really should be choosing fruits and vegetables over chips and candy, because if we think about our future, we may be saving money now, but later on we will end up paying thousands of dollars on health bills and medicines from all the junk we put into our bodies. While cooking at home is cheaper than going out to restaurants, not all home-cooked meals are alike. A new study shows shopping for healthier foods at the grocery store is more expensive than picking out unhealthier foods, by an average of about $1.50 more per day. Those little costs can add up to a big burden for poor families. “
What I believe is the worst part, or biggest downside about processed foods is the processing part. Many of us don't know about the processes that the food goes through before its packaging. What chemicals will go in the processed foods? Were packaged foods packaged in the most sanitary conditions possible?
