Compare Cost Per Ounce
Feeling the pinch of higher food and fuel costs? Still want to shop healthy and stay on budget? Here are some of the most common inexpensive healthy foods in your store, priced by the ounce. To compare, many packaged cookies, cookies, crackers and other processed foods that are high in calorie density and low in fiber are upwards of .30 per ounce! Shop store specials, look for store brands and compare unit pricing to find the best deals near you. And remember, the more you cook the more you save!
