    Going vegetarian is another way to dramatically decrease costs and the meals can be simple.
    not always - $8 for enough chicken breast to feed four adults and a couple of kids for a low gi meal - trying to replace the protein with vege options isn't always going to be cheaper. especially if you don't like lentils (i have tried lentil alternatives cos i'd prefer that option, and they make me ill! i wish i could go there but i can't!!)

    There are always going to be exceptions to every situation, of course, but it is another option for most people.
    There are so many different types of lentils and tonnes of recipes. To say you dont like lentils is like saying you dont like rice. Im not trying to say you should like them, just that for most people it would be an option.

    I think there is a need to get rid of the big chain collusion and the overwhelming hold of the fresh food market.
