In this Budgeting 101 episode, Corey and I discuss several different topics related to real food budgeting. We cover how to prioritize nutrient density (when possible), the difference between value and price, the cost of real food versus packaged and processed foods, and practical application tips and tricks for how to save money. This episode is only one part of a series of episodes covering budgeting and managing the rising costs of food in today’s modern world.
