It's Always Something

Some of the friendly advice from my mother, who said "if it's not one thing, it's another."

I guess that holds true for some new research that says if we follow the new US Government guidelines, it will cost the average person at least $7.28 a week extra.  The recent report said we should be eating more postassium, dietary fiber, Vitamin D and calcium.

The study found introducing more potassium in a diet is likely to add $380 per year to the average consumer's food costs.

This conversely means that it's become more affordable to eat junk food!  This can't be right.
