How can you stop getting food delivered every single night? How can you have just dinner out one night a week and make it more of a special thing? and start focusing on buying groceries and cooking at home. It doesn't have to be these fancy five-course meals. It can be something really simple to make. I think also, too, people think that fast food is cheap. It is no longer cheap.

Yes. My producer and I would go and we would buy really popular fast food items and see how much the cost of that was. Like we did Taco Bell cheesy gordita crunch, for example. And then we also bought all the ingredients to make that at home. Every single ingredient was organic. We were buying it from super accessible stores like Walmart, Ralph's, Kroger.

Every single ingredient was organic. And then we made a copycat of that at home. And every single time it was cheaper to buy all organic groceries and make it at home than it was to go through the drive-thru.

I say this all the time. Convenience is killing us. It really is. And we think that it's so, I said this earlier, it has been so hammered into us. Oh, it's so expensive to eat healthy. It's so expensive. I am not, I'm by no means saying that I think that some of this stuff is not overpriced. And I know if you really start getting into ins and outs of it, it can get really expensive.

But if you are dire straits really on a budget, forget the organic, okay? That is concerning and I focus on it. But like if you are dire straits and you were just trying to eat more whole real foods, Just get ground beef, rice, beans, a big quart of yogurt. Normally, eggs are well-priced. I think they're going back down right now.

Oh, okay. I've been traveling, so I haven't gone to the grocery store recently. But focus on the basics like that. And like you said, get fruit and get yogurt and just focus on eating as many whole real foods as you can and dump all the convenience because it's expensive. Yeah.
