If I had the chance to change one thing in this world it would be the prices on different types of food. I do not understand why prices on healthy food are always higher than prices on unhealthy food, or junk food. We are expected to stay clean and healthy, but how can we afford to do so if we literally cannot afford it? Consider the burden on low-income families that can barely pay for other necessities. They do not have the money to spend a large amount of their paycheck on fruits and vegetables recommended for human consumption.
As a result, people who are less fortunate buy fast food or just generally any food that they find on the dollar menu. They have no other option, but to have an unhealthy diet. I consider this an issue because people will soon have diseases from all the junk food they consume. Therefore we should either lower the prices on healthy food, or create machines that can make junk food healthy. Now which do you think is more realistic?
