Honeydew Melon

So why is eating healthily more expensive than eating crap???

Would someone mind explaining that to me?

I mean if you get things from the salad bar here at school you pay $1.11/100g. Do you know what it really is that you are paying for? Water. Water is what makes fruits and veggies so heavy. Maybe sugar too. But mostly it's water.

So I got a salad and a fruit bowl for lunch today. Cost me $7.50. The person ahead of me got a personal sized pizza, a small bag of chips and a drink for $5.50. Why is that?

Upon further inspection of my fruit bowl I got 15 pieces of honeydew melon, 3 pieces of muskmelon (cantaloupe) and 1 grape. That's right one, single, solitary grape. cheapskates. So I'm gonna sit here and eat my honeydew melon and fume.

Who came up with that stupid idea to *weigh* salad and fruit anyway? That is *such* a ripoff! I'm sure some restaurant came up with the idea and when everyone saw they were making a mint, *all* god's children jumped on the money train. Um ... yeah.
