We are trying to eat healthily and also introduces more variety of food. But I find our monthly expenditure has doubled due to this and we can't afford really. Is it true that for lower income families, you cannot eat healthy? We added brown rice and more fruits to our diet. At times, we buy organic too. But the prices are very expensive as compared to eating simply and not much variety.

you don't really need organic food, just buy from a good source like your usual market place, supermarket like ntuc/cold storage,check out on their promos. online shopping like redmart have good quality food and great pricing too. brown rice is good, you can also alternate with noodles, pasta. I spend roughly $50 a week on groceries cooking for me and my kid only and we eat same food.
