Culinate summarizes the articles about a study showing that junk food really is cheaper than healthy food. "As Serious Eats pointed out, the study’s findings are “sad, obvious, and true."
And this from the NY Times: "A 2,000-calorie diet would cost just $3.52 a day if it consisted of junk food, compared with $36.32 a day for a diet of low-energy dense foods. However, most people eat a mix of foods. The average American spends about $7 a day on food, although low-income people spend about $4."
